"عَنْ محمدِ بنِ عبادِ بن جعفرٍ وآخَرَ معهُ قالَ: خرجَ عمرُ بنُ الخطابِ في حج أو عمرةٍ فكلَّمَ أصحاب رسولِ اللَّه ﷺ خواتَ بنَ جبيرٍ أن يُغَنيهم، فقال: حتى أستأذِنَ عمرَ فاسْتَأذَنَهُ فأذِنَ له، فغنَّى خَواتُ بنُ جبيرٍ، فقال عمرُ: أَحسنَ خواتٌ! أحسنَ خواتٌ! ثم أنشأَ عمرُ يقولُ: كَأنَّ راكبهَا غصنٌ بمروحةٍ... إِذَا تدلَّتْ بِهِ أو شاربٌ ثَمِلُ".

"From Muhammad ibn 'Abbad ibn Ja'far and another with him, who said: 'Umar ibn al-Khattab went out on a Hajj or 'Umrah, and he spoke with the Companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, asking Khawwat ibn Jubayr to sing for them. He said: Until I ask 'Umar's permission. He asked him for permission and he permitted him, so Khawwat ibn Jubayr sang. 'Umar said: How good is Khawwat! How good is Khawwat! Then 'Umar began to say: As if its rider is a branch with a fan... when it sways with him, or a drunkard intoxicated."
