حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي عَنْ صَالِحٍ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي عَبْدُ الْحَمِيدِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ سَعْدِ بْنِ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ أَبَاهُ سَعْدَ بْنَ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ قَالَ
اسْتَأْذَنَ عُمَرُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ، وَعِنْدَهُ نِسَاءٌ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ يُكَلِّمْنَهُ وَيَسْتَكْثِرْنَهُ، عَالِيَةً أَصْوَاتُهُنَّ، فَلَمَّا اسْتَأْذَنَ عُمَرُ قُمْنَ يَبْتَدِرْنَ الْحِجَابَ، فَأَذِنَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ، وَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَضْحَكُ، فَقَالَ عُمَرُ: أَضْحَكَ اللَّهُ سِنَّكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، قَالَ: «عَجِبْتُ مِنْ هَؤُلاَءِ اللاَّتِي كُنَّ عِنْدِي، فَلَمَّا سَمِعْنَ صَوْتَكَ ابْتَدَرْنَ الْحِجَابَ». قَالَ عُمَرُ: فَأَنْتَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ كُنْتَ أَحَقَّ أَنْ يَهَبْنَ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: أَىْ عَدُوَّاتِ أَنْفُسِهِنَّ، أَتَهَبْنَنِي وَلاَ تَهَبْنَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ؟ قُلْنَ: نَعَمْ، أَنْتَ أَفَظُّ وَأَغْلَظُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ. قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: «وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ، مَا لَقِيَكَ الشَّيْطَانُ قَطُّ سَالِكًا فَجًّا، إِلاَّ سَلَكَ فَجًّا غَيْرَ فَجِّكَ».

Umar asked permission to enter upon the Messenger of Allah ﷺ while there were women from Quraysh with him, speaking to him and asking much of him, their voices raised. When Umar asked permission, they got up and rushed toward the hijab (screen). The Messenger of Allah ﷺ gave him permission, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was laughing. Umar said, “May Allah ﷻ make you smile, O Messenger of Allah.” He said: “I was amazed at these women who were with me; when they heard your voice, they rushed toward the hijab.” Umar said, “You, O Messenger of Allah, were more deserving that they should be in awe of you.” Then he said, “O enemies of their own selves, do you stand in awe of me and not stand in awe of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ?” They said, “Yes; you are harsher and sterner than the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.” The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “By Him in whose hand is my soul, Satan has never met you taking a path except that he takes a path other than yours.”
