"عن الحسن قال: كَتَبَ عمرُ بن الخطابِ إِلى أَبى موسى الأشعرى: أنه بلغَه أنك تأذنُ للناسِ جَمًا غَفِيرًا فإذا جاءك كتابى هذا فابدَأ بأهلِ الفضلِ والشرفِ والوجوهِ، فإذَا أخذوا مجَالِسَهم فَأذنْ للناسِ".

"From al-Hasan who said: 'Umar ibn al-Khattab wrote to Abu Musa al-Ash'ari: It has reached him that you permit a great mass of people to enter. When this letter of mine reaches you, begin with the people of virtue, honour and notability, and when they have taken their seats, then permit the people."
