وَقَالَ ابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ: حَدَّثَنَا الدَّرَاوَرْدِيُّ، ثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ ابْنُ أَبِي عَوْنٍ، عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ مَنَّاحٍ، قَالَ:

كَانَ الْقَاسِمُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ رَجُلًا صَدُوقًا صَمُوتًا، فَلَمَّا اسْتُخْلِفَ عُمَرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ ؓ قَالَ: الْيَوْمَ تَنْطِقُ الْعَذْرَاءُ مِنْ خِدْرِهَا، سَمِعْتُ عَمَّتِي عَائِشَةَ زَوْجَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ ؓ تَقُولُ: لَمَّا قُبِضَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ، ارْتَدَّتِ الْعَرَبُ قَاطِبَةً، وَاشْرَأَبَّ الْقَوْمُ، وَعَادَ أَصْحَابُ مُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ كَأَنَّهُمْ مِعْزَى طُيِّرَتْ فِي حَشٍّ، فَوَاللهِ مَا اخْتَلَفُوا فِي لَفْظَةٍ إِلَّا طَارَ أَبِي بِفَنَائِهَا، ثُمَّ ذَكَرَتْ عُمَرَ ؓ، فَقَالَتْ: وَمَنْ رَأَى عُمَرَ ؓ عَلِمَ أَنَّهُ خُلِقَ عَنَاءً لِلْإِسْلَامِ، ثُمَّ قَالَتْ ؓ: كَانَ ؓ وَاللهِ أَحْوَذِيًّا، نَسِيجَ وَحْدِهِ، قَدْ أَعَدَّ لِلْأُمُورِ أَقْرَانَهَا، مَا رَأَيْتُ مِثْلَ خُلُقِهِ ؓ حَتَّى تَعُدَّ سَبْعَ خِصَالٍ لَا أَحْفَظُهَا

✧ Al-Qasim b. Muhammad was a truthful and silent man. When Umar b. Abd al-Aziz ؓ became caliph, he said: 'Today the virgin will speak from her chamber.' I heard my aunt A'ishah, the wife of the Prophet ﷺ ؓ, say: 'When the Prophet ﷺ passed away, the Arabs apostatized altogether, the people craned their necks (in anticipation), and the Companions of Muhammad ﷺ became like goats scattered in a thicket. By Allah, they did not differ over a single word except that my father flew with its understanding.' Then she mentioned Umar ؓ and said: 'Whoever saw Umar ؓ knew that he was created as a burden for Islam.' Then she said ؓ: 'He was, by Allah, skilled and unmatched, a man of his own kind. He had prepared for affairs their counterparts. I have not seen the like of his character ؓ, until you count seven qualities which I do not remember.'
