"عن ابن عباس قال: قدم عيينة بن حصن بن بدر فنزل على ابن أخيه الْحُرِّ بنِ قيسٍ وكان من النَّفَرِ الذين يُدْنِيهِمْ عمرُ، وكان القُرَّاءُ أصحابَ مجالسِ عمرَ وَمُشَاوَرَتِهِ، كُهُولًا كَانُوا أَوْ شَبَابًا، فقال عيينة لابن أخيه: يا بْنَ أَخِى لَكَ وَجْهٌ عِنْدَ هَذَا الأَمِيرِ، فَاسْتَأذِنْ لِى عَلَيْهِ، فَاسْتَأذَنَ لَهُ، فَأَذِنَ لهُ عمرُ، فلما دخل قال: هِى يَا بْنَ الخَطَّابِ! فَوَاللَّه ما تُعطِينَا الْجَزْلَ، ولا تحكمُ بيننا بالعدلِ، فغضب عمرُ حتى همَّ أن يُوقِعَ به، فقال له الْحُرُّ: يا أميرَ المؤمنين! إن اللَّه -تعالى- قال لنبيه ﷺ: {خُذِ الْعَفْوَ وَأْمُرْ بِالْعُرْفِ وَأَعْرِضْ عَنِ الْجَاهِلِينَ} وإن هذا من الجاهلين، فواللَّهِ ما جاوزها عمرُ حين تلاها عليه، وكانَ وَقَّافًا عِنْدَ كِتَابِ اللَّه ﷻ".

"From Ibn 'Abbas, who said: 'Uyaynah ibn Hisn ibn Badr arrived and stayed with his nephew al-Hurr ibn Qays, who was among those whom 'Umar drew close, and the reciters were the companions of 'Umar's gatherings and consultations, whether elderly or young. 'Uyaynah said to his nephew: 'O nephew, you have standing with this commander, so ask permission for me to see him.' He asked permission for him, and 'Umar granted him permission. When he entered he said: 'Hey, son of al-Khattab! By Allah, you do not give us abundantly, nor do you judge between us with justice.' 'Umar became angry until he intended to strike him. Al-Hurr said to him: 'O Commander of the Believers! Indeed Allah the Exalted said to His Prophet ﷺ: {Take what is easy, enjoin what is good, and turn away from the ignorant} (7:199), and this man is among the ignorant.' By Allah, 'Umar did not go beyond it once he had recited it to him, and he was one who stopped at the Book of Allah ﷻ."
