"عَنْ نَوفَل بنِ عُمَارَةَ قَالَ: جَاءَ الحَارِثُ بنُ هِشَامٍ، وَسُهَيْلُ بنُ عَمْرٍو إلى عُمَرَ بن الْخَطَّابِ فَجَلسَا عِنْدَه وَهُو بيْنَهُمَا، فَجَعَل المُهَاجِرُون الأَوَّلُونَ يَأتُونَ عُمَرَ فَيقُولُ: هَهُنَا يَا سُهَيلُ هَهُنَا يَا حَارِثُ فَيُنَحِّيهِمَا عَنْهُم، فَجَعلَ الأَنْصَارُ يَأتُونَ عُمَرَ فَينَحِّيهمَا عَنْهُم كَذلِكَ، حَتَّى سَارُوا فِى آخِرِ النَّاسِ، فَلَمَّا خَرَجَا مِنْ عنِدِ عُمَرَ قَالَ الحَارِثُ بنُ هِشَامٍ لِسُهَيْلِ بنِ عَمْرٍو: أَلَمْ تَرَ مَا صَنَع بِنَا؟ فَقَالَ لَه سُهَيْل: أَيهَا الرَّجُلُ لَا لَوْمَ عَلَيْهِ يَنْبِغَى أَنْ نَرْجِعَ بِاللَّومِ عَلَى أَنْفُسِنَا دعُى القَوْمُ فَأَسْرَعُوا وَدعُينَا فَأَبْطَأنَا، فَلَمَّا قَامَوا مِنْ عِنْدِ عُمَرَ أَتَيَاهُ فَقَالَا لَهُ: يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ قَدْ رَأيْنَا مَا فَعَلتَ الْيومَ وَعلمنَا أنَّا أوتينَا مِنْ أَنْفُسنَا فَهَلْ من شَىْءٍ نَسْتَدْرِكُ بِه؟ فَقَالَ لَهُمَا: لَا أَعْلَمُهُ إلَّا هَذَا الوَجْهَ وأَشَارَ لَهُمَا إلَى ثَغْرِ الرُّومِ فَخَرَجَا إِلَى الشَّامِ فماتَا بها".

"From Nawfal ibn 'Umarah, who said: Al-Harith ibn Hisham and Suhayl ibn 'Amr came to 'Umar ibn al-Khattab and sat with him while he was between them. The early Emigrants began to come to 'Umar, and he would say: 'Over here, O Suhayl; over here, O Harith,' and he would move them away from them. Then the Ansar began to come to 'Umar, and he moved them away from them in the same way, until they went to the back of the people. When they both left 'Umar, al-Harith ibn Hisham said to Suhayl ibn 'Amr: 'Did you not see what he did to us?' Suhayl said to him: 'O man, there is no blame on him. We should rather blame ourselves. The people were called and they hurried, and we were called and we delayed.' When the people had stood up from 'Umar, they both came to him and said to him: 'O Commander of the Believers, we have seen what you did today, and we know that we were at fault because of ourselves. Is there anything by which we can make up for it?' He said to them: 'I know of nothing except this path,' and he pointed for them to the frontier of the Romans. So they both went out to Sham and died there."
