Jami' al-Saghir / Jam' al-Jawami' (al-Suyuti) 2-1763b
"عن سعيد بن المسيب قال: أصيب بعير من المال من الْفَئِ، فنحره عمر وأرسل إلى أزواج النبى ﷺ منه، وصنع ما بقى فدعا عليه من المسلمين وفيهم يومئذ العباس بن عبد المطلب، فقال العباس: يا أمير المؤمنين لو صنعت لنا كل يوم مثل هذا فأكلنا عندك وتحدثنا؟ فقال عمر: لا أعود لمثلها؛ إنه مضى صاحبان لى، يعنى النبى ﷺ وأبا بكر، عملا عملا وسلكا طريقا، وإنى إن عملت بغير عملهما سُلك بى غير طريقهما".

"Sa'id ibn al-Musayyib said: A camel from the wealth of al-fay' was slaughtered, and 'Umar slaughtered it and sent some of it to the wives of the Prophet ﷺ. He prepared what remained and invited the Muslims to it, and among them that day was al-'Abbas ibn 'Abd al-Muttalib. Al-'Abbas said: 'O Commander of the Faithful, if you prepared this for us every day, we would eat with you and converse?' 'Umar said: 'I will not return to the like of it. Two companions of mine have passed away, meaning the Prophet ﷺ and Abu Bakr. They acted in a manner and followed a path, and if I act other than their deeds, I would be led on a path other than theirs.'"
