"عن معاوية بن قرة قال: لَقِى عمرُ بنُ الخطاب ناسًا من أهل اليمنِ فقالَ: مَن أنتُمْ؟ قالُوا مُتوكلون، قال: كَذَبتُمْ، ما أَنْتُمْ مُتوكلونَ؛ إِنَّمَا المتوكِّلُ رجلٌ ألقَى حَبَّةٌ فِى الأَرْضِ وتوكَّلَ عَلَى اللَّه".

"Mu'awiyah ibn Qurrah said: 'Umar ibn al-Khattab met some people from Yemen and said: Who are you? They said: We are those who rely upon Allah. He said: You have lied. You are not those who rely upon Allah. Rather, the one who relies upon Allah is a man who casts a seed into the ground and relies upon Allah."
