"عن طارقِ بنِ شهابٍ قال: أخَذَ عُمَرُ بنُ الخطَّاب كَتِفًا وَجَمَعَ أصحابَ النَّبِىِّ ﷺ لِيَكْتُبَ الجَدَّ وَهُمْ يرَونَ أَنَّهُ يَجْعَلُهُ أبًا، فخرجتْ حَيَّةٌ عليهم فتفَرَّقوا فقالَ: لو أَنَّ اللَّه أرَادَ أَنْ يُمْضِيَهُ لأمْضَاهُ".

"Tariq ibn Shihab said: 'Umar ibn al-Khattab took a shoulder blade and gathered the companions of the Prophet ﷺ to write down the grandfather's inheritance, while they thought that he would make him a father. A snake came out among them, and they scattered. He said: If Allah had willed for it to take effect, He would have made it take effect."
