"عَنْ أَبى عُثْمَانَ قَالَ: (كَتَبَ عَامِلٌ) لِعُمَرَ بْنِ الخَطَّابِ: إِنَّ هَهُنَا قَوْمٌ يَجْتَمِعُونَ فَيَدْعُونَ لِلْمُسْلِمِينَ وَلِلأَمِيرِ، فَكَتَبَ إِلَيْهِ عُمَرُ: أَقْبِلْ وَأَقْبِلْ بِهِمْ مَعَكَ فَأَقْبَلَ: فَقَالَ عُمَرُ لِلبَوَّابِ: أَعِدَّ سَوطًا! فَلَما أُدْخِلُوا عَلَى عُمَرَ أَقْبَلَ عَلَى أَمِيرِهِمْ ضَرْبًا بالسَّوْطِ، فَقَالَ: يَا أَمِير المُؤْمِنينَ: إِنَّا لَسْنَا أُولَئِكَ الَّذِين تَعْنِى؛ أُولَئِكَ قَوْمٌ يَأْتُونَ مِنْ قِبَلِ الْمَشْرِقِ".

"Abu 'Uthman said: An official wrote to 'Umar ibn al-Khattab: There are people here who gather and supplicate for the Muslims and for the Commander. 'Umar wrote to him: Come, and bring them with you. He came, and 'Umar said to the doorkeeper: Prepare a whip! When they were brought in to 'Umar, he turned to their leader and struck him with the whip. He said: O Commander of the Faithful, we are not those you mean; those are a people who come from the direction of the East."
