"عَنْ عُمَرَ بن أَبِى حَارِثَةَ وَأَبِى عُثْمانَ وَالرَّبِيَع بْنِ النُّعْمَانِ البَصْرِىّ قَالُوا: وَقَعَ الطَّاعُونُ بَعْدُ بِالشَّامِ وَمِصْرَ وَالعِرَاقِ، وَاسْتقَرَّ بِالشَّام، وَمَاتَ فِيهِ النَّاسُ الذِينَ هُمُ النَّاسُ فِى المُحَرَّم وَصَفَر، وَارْتَفَعَ عَن النَّاسِ وَكَتَبُوا بِذَلِكَ إِلَى عُمَرَ مَا خَلاَ الشّام، فَخَرجَ حَتَّى إِذَا [كَان] منها قَرِيبًا بَلَغَهُ أَنَّهُ أَشَدُّ مَا كَانَ، فَقَالَ وَقَالَ الصَّحَابَةُ: قَالَ رَسولُ الله ﷺ: إِذَا كَانَ بِأرْضٍ فَلاَ تَدْخُلوهَا، وَإِذَا وَقَعَ بَأَرْض وَأَنْتُم بِها فَلاَ عَلَيْكُم، فَرَجَعَ حَتَّى ارْتَفَعَ عَنْهَا، وَكَتَبُوا إِلَيْهِ بِذَلِكَ وَبِمَا فِى أَيْديِهِم مِنَ الموَارِيث، فَجَمَعَ النَّاسَ فِى سنة سبع عَشْرَةَ فِى جُمَادَى الأُولَى فَاسْتَشَارَهُم فِى البُلْدَانِ، فَقَالَ: إِنِّى قَدْ بَدَا لِى أَنْ أَطُوفَ عَلَى المُسْلِمِينَ في بُلدَانِهِم لأِنْظُرَ فِى آثَارِهِم فَأَشِيرُوا عَلَىَّ".

It is narrated from 'Umar ibn Abi Harithah, Abu 'Uthman, and al-Rabi' ibn al-Nu'man al-Basri, who said: "The plague afterwards struck Syria, Egypt, and Iraq, and it settled in Syria, and the people who were the people died of it in Muharram and Safar, and it lifted from the people. They wrote about this to 'Umar, except for Syria. He set out until, when he was near it, he was told that it was at its worst. He said, and the Companions said: 'The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "If it is in a land, do not enter it; and if it occurs in a land while you are in it, then do not leave it."' So he turned back until it lifted from there, and they wrote to him about that and about the inheritances they had in their hands. He gathered the people in the year seventeen, in Jumada al-Ula, and consulted them about the lands, saying: 'It has become clear to me that I should tour the Muslims in their lands to look into their conditions, so advise me.'"
