حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ، قَالَ:

كُسِرَ بَعِيرٌ مِنَ الْمَالِ فَنَحَرَهُ عُمَرُ ؓ، فَدَعَا عَلَيْهِ نَاسًا مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ، فَقَالَ لَهُ الْعَبَّاسُ ؓ: لَوْ صَنَعْتَ هَذَا كُلَّ يَوْمٍ، تَحَدَّثْنَا عِنْدَكَ ؟ قَالَ ؓ: لَا أَعُودُ لِمِثْلِهَا، إِنَّهُ مَضَى لِي صَاحِبَانِ سَلَكَا طَرِيقًا، فَإِنِّي إِنْ عَمِلْتُ بِغَيْرِ عَمَلِهِمَا، سُلِكَ بِي غَيْرُ طَرِيقِهِمَا

✧ A camel from the spoils broke (its leg), so Umar ؓ slaughtered it and invited some of the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ to eat. Al-Abbas ؓ said to him: "If you did this every day, we would just come and sit with you?" He ؓ said: "I will not do the like of it again. I had two companions (the Prophet ﷺ and Abu Bakr ؓ) who passed away after following a certain path. If I act differently from their way, I will be made to follow a path other than theirs."
