Jami' al-Saghir / Jam' al-Jawami' (al-Suyuti) 2-1401b
"عن أَبى عثمانَ النهدى قال: استعملَ عمرُ بنُ الخطابِ رجلًا من أسدٍ على عَمَلٍ فجاءَ يأخذُ عَهْدَه، فأُتِى عمرُ ببعضِ ولدِه فَقَبَّله، فقال الأسدى: أَتُقَبِّل هَذَا يا أميرَ المؤمنين؟ واللَّه ما قَبَّلتُ ولدًا قطُّ، قال عمر: فأنت واللَّه بالناسِ أقلُّ رحمةً! ! هَات عَهْدَنَا، لا تَعْمَلْ عملًا أبدًا، فرَدَّ عَهْدَه".

"Abu 'Uthman al-Nahdi said: 'Umar ibn al-Khattab appointed a man from Asad to a post, and he came to take his appointment document. 'Umar was brought one of his children, and he kissed him. The Asadi said: 'Do you kiss this, O Commander of the Believers? By Allah, I have never kissed a child.' 'Umar said: 'Then by Allah, you are less merciful to people! Bring me your document. Never work at any task again.' So he returned his document."
