"عَنْ مالك الدار قَالَ: أصاب النَّاسَ قحطٌ في زمانِ عُمَرَ بن الخَطَّابِ، فجاء رجلٌ إلى قبرِ النَّبىِّ ﷺ فقال: يا رسول اللَّه: استسقِ اللَّه لأُمَّتِك، فَإنَّهم قد هَلَكُوا، فأتاه رسول اللَّه ﷺ في المنَامِ فقال: إيتِ عمرَ فأقْرئْه السلامَ، وأخَبرْه، أنّكم تُسْقَوْنَ، وقل له: عليكَ عليك الكيسَ، فأتى الرجلُ عمرَ فأخبرَه فبكى عمرُ، ثم قال؟ يا رب لا آلو إِلّا ما عجزتُ عَنْهُ".

"From Malik al-Dar who said: The people were struck by drought in the time of 'Umar ibn al-Khattab. A man came to the grave of the Prophet ﷺ and said: O Messenger of Allah, ask Allah to give rain to your community, for they have perished. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to him in a dream and said: Go to 'Umar and convey my greeting to him, and inform him that you will be watered, and say to him: Upon you, upon you is intelligence. The man came to 'Umar and informed him, and 'Umar wept, then said: O Lord, I do not fall short except in what I am unable to do."
