"عَن عيسى بن معمر قال: نظرَ عمرُ بنُ الخطابِ عامَ الرمادَةِ إلى بطيخةٍ في يد بعضِ ولدِهِ فقالَ: بَخٍ بَخٍ يا ابنَ أميرِ المؤمنينَ، تأكلُ الفاكهةَ وَأُمَّةُ محمدٍ هَزْلَى؟ فخرجَ الصبىُّ هَارِبًا وَبَكَى؛ فأسكَتَ عمر بعد مَا سألَ عن ذلك فقالُوا: اشتراها بكفٍّ من نَوى".

"It is narrated from 'Isa ibn Ma'mar who said: 'Umar ibn al-Khattab looked in the year of ar-Ramadah at a watermelon in the hand of one of his sons and said: 'Bakh, bakh! O son of the Commander of the Believers, you eat fruit while the nation of Muhammad is emaciated?' The boy ran off crying. 'Umar became silent after he asked about it, and they said: 'He bought it for a handful of date-stones.'"
