وَقَالَ أَبُو يَعْلَى: حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى الزِّمَّانِيُّ، نَبَا عَبْدُ الصَّمَدِ، ثَنَا دُجَيْنُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ الْيَرْبُوعِيُّ قَالَ:
دَخَلْتُ الْمَسْجِدَ فَإِذَا شَيْخٌ إِلَى جَنْبِ الْمِنْبَرِ جَالِسٌ، يُقَالُ لَهُ: سَالِمٌ أَوْ أَسْلَمُ، قَالَ: كُنْتُ أُسَافِرُ مَعَ عُمَرَ ؓ وَأَرْجُزُ لَهُ، فَكَانَ لَا يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ، فَقُلْنَا لَهُ: لَوْ حَدَّثْتَنَا، فَقَالَ ؓ: إِنِّي سَمِعْتُهُ ﷺ يَقُولُ: « مَنْ كَذَبَ عَلَيَّ مُتَعَمِّدًا فَلْيَتَبَوَّأْ مَقْعَدَهُ مِنَ النَّارِ

✧ I entered the mosque and there was an old man sitting beside the pulpit, called Salim or Aslam. He said: I used to travel with 'Umar ؓ and recite rajaz poetry for him, and he would not narrate from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. We said to him: If only you would narrate to us. He ؓ said: I heard him ﷺ say: 'Whoever lies about me deliberately, let him take his seat in the Fire.'
