قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ]، وَأَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ، قَالَا: ثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ، أَنَا حُمَيْدٌ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ؓ قَالَ:
( كُنْتُ أُصَلِّي إِلَى قَبْرٍ، فَرَآنِي عُمَرُ ؓ، فَجَعَلَ يَقُولُ: الْقَبْرَ، الْقَبْرَ، فَجَعَلْتُ لَا أَفْهَمُ مَا يُرِيدُ، فَرَفَعْتُ رَأْسِي إِلَى السَّمَاءِ، فَقَالَ: الْقَبْرُ أَمَامَكَ
