"عَنْ سليمانَ بنِ يَسَارٍ: أَنَّ رَجُلًا مِنْ بَنِى تَمِيم يُقَالُ لَهُ: صُبَيْغُ بْنُ عِسْلٍ قَدِمَ المدينةَ، وكانت عنده كُتُبٌ، يَسْأَلُ عن مُتَشَابِه القرآن، فبلغ ذلك عمر، فَبَعَثَ إِليهِ وَقَدْ أَعَدَّ لَهُ عَرَاجِينَ، فَما زَالَ يَضْرِبُه حَتَّى شَجَّهُ وَجَعَلَ الدَّمُ يَسِيلُ عَلَى وَجْهِهِ، فَقَالَ: حَسْبُكَ يَا أمَيرَ المؤمنينَ فَقَدْ واللَّه ذَهَبَ الَّذِى أَجِدُ في رَأسِى".

"On the authority of Sulayman ibn Yasar: A man from Banu Tamim called Sabigh ibn 'Isl came to Medina, and he had books, asking about the ambiguous verses of the Quran. The news reached 'Umar, so he sent for him, having prepared palm stalks, and kept beating him until he wounded his head and blood ran down his face. He said: Enough, O Commander of the Believers, by Allah the thing I was finding in my head has gone."
