"عَنْ (زَيْدِ بْنِ) أَسْلَمَ (عَنْ أَبِيه) قَالَ: قَالَ لِى عُمَرُ: يَا أَسْلَمُ أَمْسكْ عَلَى الْبَابِ ولا تَأخُذَنَّ مِنْ أَحَدِ شَيْئًا، فَرَأى عَلَىَّ يَوْمًا ثَوْبًا جَدِيدًا، فَقَالَ: مِنْ أَيْنَ لَكَ هَذَا؟ قُلتُ: كَسَانِيه عُبَيْدُ اللَّه بْنُ عُمَرَ، فَقَالَ: أَمَّا عُبَيْدُ اللَّه فَخُذْه مِنْهُ وَأَمَّا غَيْرُهُ فَلَا تَأخُذَنَّ مِنْهُ شَيْئًا، فَقَالَ أَسْلَمُ: فَجَاءَ الزُّبيْرُ وَأَنَا عَلَى الْبَابِ (فَسَأَلَنِى) أَنْ يَدْخُل، فَقُلْتُ: أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ مَشْغُولٌ سَاعَةً، فَرَفَعَ يَدَهُ فَضَرَبَ خَلفَ أُذُنَىَّ ضَرْبَةً صَيَّحَتْنِى، فَدَخَلْتُ عَلَى عُمَرَ فَقَالَ: مَالَكَ؟ فَقُلْتُ: ضَرَبَنِى الزُّبيْرُ، وَأَخْبَرْتُهُ خَبَرَهُ، فَجَعَلَ عُمَرُ يَقُولُ: الزُّبيْرُ وَاللَّه أَرَى، ثُمَّ قَالَ: أَدْخِلهُ، فَأَدْخَلتُهُ عَلَى عُمَرَ، فَقَالَ عُمَرُ: لِمَ ضَرَبْتَ هذا الْغُلَامَ؟ فَقَالَ الزُّبيْرُ: زَعَمَ أَنَّه سَيَمْنَعُنَا مِنَ الدُّخُولِ عَلَيْكَ، فَقَالَ: هَلْ رَدَّكَ عَنْ بَابِى قَطُّ؟ قَالَ: لَا، قَالَ عُمَرُ: فَإِنْ قَالَ لَكَ: اصْبِرْ سَاعَةً فَإِنَّ أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ مَشْغُولٌ لَمْ تَعْذِرْنِى؟ ! إِنَّهُ وَاللَّه إِنَّمَا يَدْمَى السَّبُعُ لِلسِّبَّاعِ فَتَأكُلُهُ".

"It was narrated from Zayd ibn Aslam, from his father, that he said: 'Umar said to me: O Aslam, stay at the door and do not take anything from anyone. One day he saw a new garment on me and said: Where did you get this? I said: 'Ubaydullah ibn 'Umar clothed me with it. He said: As for 'Ubaydullah, take it from him, but as for others, do not take anything from them. Aslam said: Then az-Zubayr came while I was at the door, and asked to enter. I said: The Commander of the Faithful is busy for a while. He raised his hand and struck behind my ears a blow that stunned me. I entered upon 'Umar and he said: What is wrong with you? I said: az-Zubayr struck me, and I told him what had happened. 'Umar kept saying: By Allah, it is az-Zubayr, I think. Then he said: Admit him. I admitted him to 'Umar, and 'Umar said: Why did you strike this boy? az-Zubayr said: He claimed that he would prevent us from entering upon you. He said: Has he ever turned you away from my door? He said: No. 'Umar said: If he tells you to wait a while because the Commander of the Faithful is busy, would you not excuse me? By Allah, the beast of prey only bleeds for the predators, so they eat it."
