"عَن السائب بن يزيد قال: بينا نحن مع عبد الرحمن بن عوف فاعتزل عبد الرحمن الطريق ثم قال: لم ناح ابن المعترف، غننا يا أبا حسان، وكان يحسن النصب، فبينا رباح يغنيهم أدركهم عمر بن الخطاب فقال: ما هذا؟ فقال عبد الرحمن: نلهو ونقصر عنا الليل، قال: فإن كنت آخذا فعليك بشوار ضرار بن الخطاب".

"Al-Sa'ib ibn Yazid said: While we were with 'Abd al-Rahman ibn 'Awf, 'Abd al-Rahman left the road, then said: 'Why did the son of al-Mu'tarif wail? Sing for us, O Abu Hassan,' and he had a good voice for the melodies. While Rabah was singing for them, 'Umar ibn al-Khattab came upon them and said: 'What is this?' 'Abd al-Rahman said: 'We are amusing ourselves and shortening the night for us.' He said: 'If you are going to take it up, then stick to the Shawwar of Dirar ibn al-Khattab.'"
