"عن أَبى بَلْجٍ عَلِىٍّ بنِ عُبْيدِ اللَّه قَالَ: بَيْنَمَا عُمَرُ بْنُ الخَطَّابِ قَاعدٌ عَلَى المِنْبَرِ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَة يَخْطُبُ قَالَ بِأَعْلَى صَوْتِهِ: يَا سَارِيةُ الْجَبَلَ! يَا سَارِيَةَ الْجَبَلَ، ثُمَّ أَخَذَ فِى خُطبَتِهِ، فَأَنْكَرَ الَنَّاسُ ذَلِكَ مِنْهُ، فَلَمَّا نَزَلَ وَصَلَّى قِيلَ: يا أميرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ! قَدْ صَنعْتَ الْيَوْمَ شَيئًا مَا كُنَّا نَعْرِفُهُ؟ قَالَ: وَمَا ذَاكَ؟ قِيلَ: قُلْتَ كَذَا وَكَذَا -وَذَكَرُوا مَا نَادَى بِه فَقَالَ: مَا كَانَ شَىْءٌ مِنْ هَذَا، قَالُوا: بَلَى وَاللَّه، لَقَدْ كَانَ ذَلِكَ، قَالَ: فَأَثْبتُوا مِنْ هَذَا اليَوْمِ مِنْ هَذَا الشَّهْرِ ثُم أَبْصِرُوا، وَكَان يَبْعثُ سَارِيَةَ فِى بَعْثِ الْعِرَاقِ، فَطَفَّ العَدُوُّ فَحِيزَ إِلَى الْجَبَلِ (وقَالَ سَارَيَةُ لَمَّا انْصَرَف: بينا نَحْنُ نُقَاتِلُ الْعَدُوَّ إِذ سَمِعْنَا صَوْتًا لَا نَدْرِى مَا هُوَ: يَا سَاريَةُ الْجَبَل) ثلاثا، فَدَفَعَ اللَّه عَنْا بِهِ، فَنَظَرُوا فِى ذَلِكَ اليَوْمِ فإِذَا هُوَ الْيَوْمُ الَّذِى قَالَ عُمَرُ فِيهِ مَا قَالَ".

"On the authority of Abu Baljj 'Ali ibn 'Ubayd Allah, who said: While 'Umar ibn al-Khattab was sitting on the pulpit on Friday, delivering the sermon, he cried out at the top of his voice: 'O Sariyah, the mountain! O Sariyah, the mountain!' Then he continued his sermon. The people disapproved of that from him. When he came down and prayed, it was said to him: 'O Commander of the Faithful, today you did something we did not know?' He said: 'And what was that?' It was said: 'You said such and such,' and they mentioned what he had called out. He said: 'Nothing of this happened.' They said: 'Yes, by Allah, it did happen.' He said: 'Then record this day and this month, and observe.' 'Umar used to send Sariyah with an expedition to Iraq. The enemy outflanked them and they were driven back to a mountain. (Sariyah said when he returned: While we were fighting the enemy, we heard a voice we did not understand: 'O Sariyah, the mountain!' three times.) So Allah repelled them by it. They examined that day, and it was the very day 'Umar had spoken about."
