Jami' al-Saghir / Jam' al-Jawami' (al-Suyuti) 2-2492b
"عَنْ عبد الرحمنِ بن عبد القرِىِّ: أَنَّ عُمرَ بنَ الخطاب وَرَجُلًا مِنَ الأَنصار كَانَا جَالسيْن، فجئتُ فجلستُ إِليهمَا، فَقَالَ عُمرُ: إِنَّا لَا نُحبُّ مَنْ يَرْفَعُ حَدِيثَنَا، فقلتُ: لستُ أُجَالِسُ أُولئِكَ يَا أميرَ المؤمنينَ، قَالَ عُمرُ: بَلْ تُجالسُ هَؤلاءِ وهؤلاءِ ولا ترفَعْ حديثَنَا، ثُمَّ قَالَ للأنصارىِّ: مَنْ تَرى النّاسَ يَقولونَ يَكون الخليفةَ بعدى؟ فَعَدَّ الأنصارى رجالًا مِنَ المهاجرينَ لَمْ يُسَمِّ عليًا، فَقَالَ عُمرُ، فَمَا لَهم عن أَبِى الحسن فَوَاللَّه إِنَّهُ لأَحْرَاهُمْ إِنْ كَانَ عَلَيهم أَنْ يُقِيمَهمُ عَلى طريقةٍ من الْحَقِّ".

"From 'Abd al-Rahman ibn 'Abd al-Qari': that 'Umar ibn al-Khattab and a man from the Ansar were sitting together, and I came and sat with them. 'Umar said: We do not love the one who raises our talk. I said: I do not sit with those, O Commander of the Faithful. 'Umar said: Rather, you sit with these and those, and do not raise our talk. Then he said to the Ansari: Who do you see the people saying will be the caliph after me? The Ansari counted some men from the Muhajirun, without naming 'Ali. 'Umar said: What about Abu al-Hasan? By Allah, he is the most worthy of them, if it is incumbent upon them to keep them on the path of truth."
