أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْبَغْدَادِيُّ ثنا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ الْقَاضِي ثنا عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْمَدِينِيِّ ثنا سُفْيَانُ ثنا أَيُّوبُ بْنُ عَائِذٍ الطَّائِيُّ عَنْ قَيْسِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ طَارِقِ بْنِ شِهَابٍ قَالَ
خَرَجَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ إِلَى الشَّامِ وَمَعَنَا أَبُو عُبَيْدَةَ بْنُ الْجَرَّاحِ فَأَتَوْا عَلَى مَخَاضَةٍ وَعُمَرُ عَلَى نَاقَةٍ لَهُ فَنَزَلَ عَنْهَا وَخَلَعَ خُفَّيْهِ فَوَضَعَهُمَا عَلَى عَاتِقِهِ وَأَخَذَ بِزِمَامِ نَاقَتِهِ فَخَاضَ بِهَا الْمَخَاضَةَ فَقَالَ أَبُو عُبَيْدَةَ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ أَنْتَ تَفْعَلُ هَذَا تَخْلَعُ خُفَّيْكَ وَتَضَعُهُمَا عَلَى عَاتِقِكَ وَتَأْخُذُ بِزِمَامِ نَاقَتِكَ وَتَخُوضُ بِهَا الْمَخَاضَةَ؟ مَا يَسُرُّنِي أَنَّ أَهْلَ الْبَلَدِ اسْتَشْرَفُوكَ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ «أَوَّهْ لَمْ يَقُلْ ذَا غَيْرُكَ أَبَا عُبَيْدَةَ جَعَلْتُهُ نَكَالًا لَأُمَّةِ مُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ إِنَّا كُنَّا أَذَلَّ قَوْمٍ فَأَعَزَّنَا اللَّهُ بِالْإِسْلَامِ فَمَهْمَا نَطْلُبُ الْعِزَّةَ بِغَيْرِ مَا أَعَزَّنَا اللَّهُ بِهِ أَذَلَّنَا اللَّهُ»

✧ Umar b. al-Khattab went out to Syria, and with us was Abu Ubaydah b. al-Jarrah. They came to a ford, and Umar was on a she-camel of his. He dismounted from it, took off his two leather socks, placed them on his shoulder, took hold of his she-camel’s halter, and led it through the ford. Abu Ubaydah said, “O Commander of the Believers, are you doing this? You take off your two leather socks, put them on your shoulder, take your she-camel’s halter, and lead it through the ford? It would not please me for the people of the town to see you like this.” Umar said, “Oh! No one but you would say this, Abu Ubaydah. I made it a lesson for the community of Muhammad ﷺ. We were the most humiliated people, and Allah honored us with Islam. So whenever we seek honor through anything other than what Allah honored us with, Allah will humiliate us.”
