"عَن الْحَسنِ قَالَ: أَتَى عُمرَ بنَ الْخَطَّابِ أَعْرَابِىٌّ، فَقَالَ: يا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ: إِنِّى رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْبَادِيَةِ وَإِنَّ لِى أَشْغَالًا، فَأوْصِنِى بِأَمْرٍ يكُونُ لِى ثِقَةً وَأبْلُغُ بِهِ، فَقَالَ: اعْقِلْ، أَرِنِى يَدَكَ، فَأعْطَاه يَدَهُ، فَقَالَ: تَعْبُدُ اللَّه لَا تُشْرِكْ به شَيْئًا، وَتُقيمُ الصَّلَاةَ، وَتُؤْتِى الزَّكَاةَ الْمَفْرُوضَةَ، وَتَحُجُّ وَتَعْتِمِرُ، وَتُطِيعُ، وَعَليْكَ بِالْعَلانِيَةِ، وَإِيَّاكَ والسِّرَّ، وَعَلَيْكَ بِكُلَّ شَئٍ إِذَا ذُكِرَ نُشِرَ لَمْ تَسْتحَ مِنْهُ وَلَمْ يَفْضَحْكَ وَإِيَّاكَ وَكُلَّ شَىْءٍ إِذا ذُكِرَ وَنُشِرَ اسْتَحيَيْتَ وَفَضَحَكَ، فَقَالَ: يا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ: أَعْملُ بِهِنَّ، فَإِذَا لَقِيتُ رَبِّى أَقولُ: أخْبرَنِى بِهِنَّ عُمرُ بنُ الخطَّابِ، فَقَالَ: فَإِذَا لَقِيتَ رَبَّكَ فَقُلْ لَهُ مَا بَدَا لَكَ".

“From al-Hasan, who said: A Bedouin came to 'Umar ibn al-Khattab and said: O Commander of the Believers, I am a man from the desert people and I have many occupations, so advise me with a matter that will be a sure guide for me and by which I may reach (my goal). He said: Understand. Show me your hand. He gave him his hand, and he said: Worship Allah and do not associate anything with Him, establish the prayer, pay the obligatory zakah, perform Hajj and 'Umrah, and obey. Upon you is openness, and beware of secrecy. Upon you is everything that, when it is mentioned and spread, you are not ashamed of and it does not disgrace you. And beware of everything that, when it is mentioned and spread, you would be ashamed of and it would disgrace you. He said: O Commander of the Believers, I will act upon them. When I meet my Lord I will say: 'Umar ibn al-Khattab informed me of them. He said: When you meet your Lord, say to Him whatever comes to you.”
