"عَنْ زيدِ بنِ أَسْلمَ قَالَ: قَالَ عُمَرُ بنُ الخَطَّابِ لِعَمْرِو بنِ العَاص: لقد عَجِبْتُ لَكَ فِى ذِهْنِكَ وَعَقْلِك، كَيْفَ لَم تَكُن مِن المُهاجِرين الأولِينَ فَقَالَ لَه عَمْرو: ومَا أعْجَبَك يَا عُمَرُ مِنْ رَجُلٍ قَلبُهُ بِيَدِ غيْرِه، لاَ يَسْتَقِر التَّخَلُّص منه إلاَّ إلَى ماَ أرَادَ الّذى هُو بِيَدِه، فَقَالَ عُمَرُ: صَدَقْتَ".

"It is narrated from Zayd ibn Aslam that he said: 'Umar ibn al-Khattab said to 'Amr ibn al-'As: 'I am amazed at you, at your mind and your intellect, how you were not among the first emigrants.' 'Amr said to him: 'What amazes you, O 'Umar, about a man whose heart is in another's hand? Deliverance from it cannot be secured except by what the one who holds it wills.' 'Umar said: 'You are right.'"
