"عَنْ سَعِيد بْنِ المُسيّب قَالَ: بَيْنَمَا حَسَّانُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ يَنْشِدُ الشِّعْرَ في مَسْجدِ رَسُولِ اللَّه ﷺ (فجاء عمر فقال: يا حسان أتنشد في مسجد رسول اللَّه ﷺ ؟ ) قَالَ: قَدْ أَنْشَدْتُ وَفِيهِ مَنْ هُوَ خَيْرٌ مِنْكَ، قَالَ: صَدَقْتَ، وانْصَرَفَ".

"From Sa'id ibn al-Musayyib, who said: While Hassan ibn Thabit was reciting poetry in the Mosque of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, ('Umar came and said: O Hassan, are you reciting poetry in the Mosque of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ?) He said: I have recited while in it was one better than you. He said: You have spoken the truth, and he departed."
