حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي ابْنُ وَهْبٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي عُمَرُ هُوَ ابْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ أَنَّ زَيْدَ بْنَ أَسْلَمَ حَدَّثَهُ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ
سَأَلَنِي ابْنُ عُمَرَ عَنْ بَعْضِ شَأْنِهِ يَعْنِي عُمَرَ فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ فَقَالَ مَا رَأَيْتُ أَحَدًا قَطُّ بَعْدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ مِنْ حِينَ قُبِضَ كَانَ أَجَدَّ وَأَجْوَدَ حَتَّى انْتَهَى مِنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ
