"عَنِ الشَّعْبِىِّ أَنَّ عُمَرَ كَانَ في بَيْتٍ وَمَعَهُ جَرِيرُ بنُ عَبْدِ اللَّه، فَوَجَدَ عُمَرُ رِيحًا، فَقَالَ: عَزَمْتُ عَلَى صَاحِبِ هَذِهِ الرِّيح لَمَا قَامَ فَتَوَضَّأ، فَقَالَ جَرِيرُ: يَا أَمِيرَ المُؤْمِنينَ أَوَ يَتَوَضَّأُ القَوْمُ جَمِيعًا؟ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ: رَحمَكَ اللَّه، نِعْمَ السَّيِّدُ كُنْتَ فِى الجَاهِليَّةِ، نِعْمَ السَّيدُ أَنْتَ في الإِسْلامِ".
