"عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ قَالَ: كَتَبَ (كَاتِبٌ) () لعُمَرَ بْنِ الخطَّابِ: هَذَا مَا أَرَى اللَّه أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ عُمَرَ، فَانْتَهَرَهُ عُمَرُ وَقَالَ: لَا، بَل اكْتُبْ: هَذَا مَا رَأَى عُمَرُ، فَإِنْ كَانَ صَوَابًا فَمِنَ اللَّه، وَإِنْ كَانَ خَطَأً فَمِنْ عُمَرَ".

"Masruq said: A scribe wrote for 'Umar ibn al-Khattab: 'This is what Allah has shown the Commander of the Believers, 'Umar.' 'Umar rebuked him and said: 'No, rather write: This is what 'Umar has seen. If it is correct, it is from Allah, and if it is wrong, it is from 'Umar.'"
