"عَنْ الْكَلْبىِّ قَالَ: وَقَدْ (وَفَدَ) الأَجْدَعُ إِلَى عُمَرَ بْنِ الخَطَّابِ، وَكَانَ شَاعِرًا، فَقالَ لَهُ عُمَرُ: مَنْ أَنْتَ؟ فَقالَ: الأَجْدعُ، فَقَالَ: إِنَّمَا الأَجْدَعُ شَيْطَانٌ، أَنْتَ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ".

"It was narrated from al-Kalbi that he said: al-Ajda' had come to 'Umar ibn al-Khattab, and he was a poet. 'Umar said to him: 'Who are you?' He said: 'al-Ajda'.' He said: 'Al-Ajda' is only a devil; you are 'Abd al-Rahman.'"
