"عن عمر بن عمرو الأنصارى: أن عمر بن الخطاب قرأ {وَالسَّابِقُونَ الْأَوَّلُونَ مِنَ الْمُهَاجِرِينَ وَالْأَنْصَارِ وَالَّذِينَ اتَّبَعُوهُمْ بِإِحْسَانٍ} فرفع الأنصار ولم يلحق الواو في الذين، فقال له زيد بن ثابت: والذين اتبعوهم بإحسان، فقال عمر: الذين اتبعوهم بإحسان، فقال زيد: أمير المؤمنين أعلم، فقال عمر إئتونى بأبى بنِ كعب فسأله عن ذلك، ؟ فقال أبى: والذين اتبعوهم بإحسان، فجعل كل واحد منهما يشير إلى أنف صاحبه بإصبعه، فقال أُبَىُّ: والله أقرأنيها رسولُ الله ﷺ وأنت تتبع الخبط ( )، فقال عمر: فنعم إذن نُتابع أُبيا".

"From 'Umar ibn 'Amr al-Ansari: That 'Umar ibn al-Khattab recited {And the foremost of the first generation of the Emigrants and the Helpers and those who followed them with excellence} and he raised (the word) al-Ansar and did not attach the waw to alladhina. Zayd ibn Thabit said to him: (It should be) wa-alladhina attaba'uhum bi-ihsan. 'Umar said: (It is) alladhina attaba'uhum bi-ihsan. Zayd said: The Commander of the Believers knows better. 'Umar said: Bring me Ubayy ibn Ka'b, and he asked him about that. Ubayy said: (It is) wa-alladhina attaba'uhum bi-ihsan. Each of them began pointing at the other's nose with his finger. Ubayy said: By Allah, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ recited it to me, and you are following the ... ( ). 'Umar said: Then indeed we follow Ubayy."
