- إِسْحَاقُ: أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَامِرٍ الْعَقَدِيُّ، ثَنَا أَبُو هِلَالٍ الرَّاسِبِيُّ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ، قَالَ:
إِنَّ عُمَرَ ؓ هَمَّ أَنْ يَأْخُذَ كَنْزَ الْكَعْبَةِ وَيُنْفِقَهُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ تَعَالَى، فَقَالَ لَهُ أُبَيُّ بْنُ كَعْبٍ ؓ: سَبَقَكَ صَاحِبَاكَ فَلَمْ يَفْعَلَا، فَلَوْ كَانَ خَيْرًا لَفَعَلَاهُ، فَتَرَكَهُ
