"عن سعيدِ بن المسيبِ أن عمرَ بنَ الخطابِ قالَ في وِلَايَتِهِ: مَن وَلِىَ الأمرَ بَعْدِى فليعلمْ أَن سَيُريدُهُ عنهُ القريبُ والبعيدُ، وايْمُ اللَّه ما كُنْتُ إلا أُقاتِلُ النَّاسَ عن نَفْسِى قتالًا".

"Sa'id ibn al-Musayyib: 'Umar ibn al-Khattab said during his caliphate: Whoever takes charge of the affair after me, let him know that the near and the far will desire it from him. By Allah, I was only fighting people in defense of myself, a fight.'"
