حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ ثنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْجَبَّارِ ثنا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ قَالَ
جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى عُمَرَ وَهُوَ بِعَرَفَةَ فَقَالَ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ جِئْتُ مِنَ الْكُوفَةِ وَتَرَكْتُ بِهَا مَنْ يُمْلِي الْمَصَاحِفَ عَنْ ظَهْرِ قَلْبِهِ قَالَ فَغَضِبَ عُمَرُ وَانْتَفَخَ حَتَّى كَادَ يَمْلَأُ مَا بَيْنَ شُعْبَتَيِ الرَّجُلِ ثُمَّ قَالَ وَيْحَكَ مَنْ هُوَ؟ قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ فَمَا زَالَ يُطْفِئُ وَيُسَرِّي الْغَضَبَ حَتَّى عَادَ إِلَى حَالِهِ الَّتِي كَانَ عَلَيْهَا ثُمَّ قَالَ وَيْحَكَ وَاللَّهِ مَا أَعْلَمُهُ بَقِيَ أَحَدٌ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ هُوَ أَحَقُّ بِذَلِكَ مِنْهُ سَأُحَدِّثُكَ عَنْ ذَلِكَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لَا يَزَالُ يَسْمُرُ فِي الْأَمْرِ مِنْ أَمْرِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ عِنْدَ أَبِي بَكْرٍ وَأَنَّهُ سَمَرَ عِنْدَهُ ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ وَأَنَا مَعَهُ ثُمَّ خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَخَرَجْنَا نَمْشِي مَعَهُ فَإِذَا رَجُلٌ قَائِمٌ يُصَلِّي فِي الْمَسْجِدِ فَقَامَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَسْتَمِعُ قِرَاءَتَهُ فَلَمَّا أَعْيَانَا أَنْ نَعْرِفَ مَنِ الرَّجُلُ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «مَنْ سَرَّهُ أَنْ يَقْرَأَ الْقُرْآنَ كَمَا أُنْزِلَ فَلْيَقْرَأْهُ عَلَى ابْنِ أُمِّ عَبْدٍ» ثُمَّ جَلَسَ الرَّجُلُ يَدْعُو فَجَعَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ لَهُ «سَلْ تُعْطَهْ» فَقَالَ عُمَرُ فَقُلْتُ «وَاللَّهِ لَأَغْدُوَنَّ إِلَيْهِ فَلَأُبَشِّرَنَّهُ» قَالَ «فَغَدَوْتُ إِلَيْهِ لِأُبَشِّرَهُ فَوَجَدْتُ أَبَا بَكْرٍ قَدْ سَبَقَنِي فَبَشَّرَهُ فَوَاللَّهِ مَا سَابَقْتُهُ إِلَى خَيْرٍ قَطُّ إِلَّا سَبَقَنِي إِلَيْهِ»

✧ A man came to Umar while he was at Arafah and said: Amir al-Mu'minin, I came from Kufah and left there someone who writes out copies of the Quran from memory. Umar became angry and swelled until he almost filled the space between the man's shoulders. He said: Woe to you, who is he? He said: Abdullah b. Masud. He kept calming down until he returned to his former state. Then he said: Woe to you, by Allah, I do not know of any Muslim remaining who is more deserving of that than him. I will tell you about that. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to converse at night about affairs of the Muslims at Abu Bakr's house. One night he conversed there and I was with him. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ left and we walked with him. There was a man standing praying in the mosque. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood listening to his recitation. When we could not identify the man, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'Whoever would like to recite the Quran as it was sent down, let him recite it as Ibn Umm Abd does.' Then the man sat down supplicating, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to him: 'Ask and you will be given.' Umar said: I said: By Allah, I will go to him in the morning and give him good news. I went to him to give him good news and found Abu Bakr had preceded me and given him the news. By Allah, I never raced him to any good but he preceded me.

in المستدرك على الصحيحين, p. 2911 - al-Ḍiyāʾ al-Maqdisī
سئل الدارقطني عنه فذكر الاختلاف فيه وقال وقد ضبط الأعمش إسناده وحديثه وهو الصواب قيل له فإن البخاري فيما ذكره أبو عيسى عنه حكم بحديث الحسن بن عبيد الله يعني رواه عن إبراهيم عن علقمة عن القرثع عن قيس أو ابن قيس رجل من جعفى فقال الدارقطني عندي أن حديث الأعمش هو الصواب والحسن بن عبيد الله ليس بالقوي ثم قال لا يقاس الحسن بالأعمش
machine translational-Dāraquṭnī was asked about him, and he mentioned the disagreement concerning him and said: "al-Aʿmash preserved its chain of transmission and its ḥadīth, and that is the correct one." It was said to him: "But al-Bukhārī, as Abū ʿĪsā mentioned from him, ruled in favour of the ḥadīth of al-Ḥasan b. ʿUbaydillāh," meaning that he narrated it from Ibrāhīm, from ʿAlqamah, from al-Qarthaʿ, from Qays or Ibn Qays, a man from Juʿfī. So al-Dāraquṭnī said: "In my view the ḥadīth of al-Aʿmash is the correct one, and al-Ḥasan b. ʿUbaydillāh is not strong (laysa bi-l-qawī)." Then he said: "al-Ḥasan is not to be compared with al-Aʿmash."
