وَقَالَ مُسَدَّدٌ: حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ، قَالَ:

لَمَّا صَدَرَ عُمَرُ ؓ مِنْ مِنًى أَنَاخَ بِالْأَبْطَحِ، ثُمَّ كَوَّمَ كَوْمَةً مِنَ الْبَطْحَاءِ، ثُمَّ أَلْقَى نَفْسَهُ عَلَيْهِ، فَلَزِقَ بِثَوْبِهِ وَاسْتَلْقَى، وَمَدَّ يَدَهُ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ، فَقَالَ: اللَّهُمَّ ضَعُفَتْ قُوَّتِي، وَكَبِرَتْ سِنِّي، وَانْتَشَرَتْ رَعِيَّتِي، فَاقْبِضْنِي إِلَيْكَ غَيْرَ مُضَيِّعٍ وَلَا مُفَرِّطٍ، ثُمَّ قَدِمَ ؓ الْمَدِينَةَ، فَخَطَبَ، فَقَالَ: يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ، إِنِّي قَدْ سَنَنْتُ لَكُمُ السُّنَنَ، وَفَرَضْتُ لَكُمُ الْفَرَائِضَ، وَتَرَكْتُكُمْ عَلَى وَاضِحَةٍ - وَصَفَّقَ يَحْيَى بِيَدَيْهِ - إِلَّا أَنْ تَضِلُّوا بِالنَّاسِ يَمِينًا وَشِمَالًا. وَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ. قَالَ سَعِيدٌ: فَمَا انْسَلَخَ ذُو الْحِجَّةِ، حَتَّى قُتِلَ عُمَرُ

✧ When Umar ؓ departed from Mina, he made his camel kneel at al-Abtah. Then he piled up a heap of pebbles and threw himself upon it, pressing his garment to it and lying on his back. He stretched his hand toward the sky and said: O Allah, my strength has weakened, my age has advanced, and my flock has scattered, so take me to You without negligence or excess. Then he ؓ came to Madinah and gave a sermon: O people, I have established for you the sunnahs, I have ordained for you the obligations, and I have left you upon a clear path—Yahya clapped his hands—unless you lead people astray to the right and left. And he mentioned the hadith. Said: Dhul-Hijjah had not ended before Umar was killed.
