وَقَالَ أَبُو يَعْلَى: حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ الْحَجَّاجِ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الطُّفَيْلِ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ. وَعَنْ حَبِيبٍ، وَحُمَيْدٍ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ ؓ قَالَ: إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ:
بَيْنَا أَنَا أَنْزِعُ اللَّيْلَةَ، إِذْ وَرَدَتْ عَلَيَّ غَنَمٌ سُودٌ، وَغَنَمٌ عُفْرٌ، فَجَاءَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ ؓ فَنَزَعَ ذَنُوبًا، أَوْ ذَنُوبَيْنِ فِيهِمَا ضَعْفٌ، وَاللهُ يَغْفِرُ لَهُ، ثُمَّ جَاءَ عُمَرُ ؓ فَاسْتَحَالَ غَرْبًا، فَمَلَأَ الْحِيَاضَ، وَأَرْوَى الْوَارِدَ، فَلَمْ أَرَ عَبْقَرِيًّا مِنَ النَّاسِ أَحْسَنَ نَزْعًا مِنْهُ، فَأَوَّلْتُ أَنَّ الْغَنَمَ السُّودَ الْعَرَبُ، وَالْعُفْرَ الْعَجَمُ

✧ While I was drawing water tonight, some black sheep and some light-colored sheep came to me. Abu Bakr ؓ came and drew a bucket or two, in which there was weakness; may Allah forgive him. Then 'Umar ؓ came and turned it into a large bucket, filled the troughs and quenched the drinkers. I have never seen a stronger man among people draw water better than him. I interpreted the black sheep as the Arabs and the light-colored sheep as the non-Arabs.
