"عَنْ أَبِى عَقِيلٍ، عَنْ جَدَّهِ قَالَ: كُنَّا مَعَ النَّبِىِّ ﷺ وَهُوَ آخِذٌ بِيَد عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ فَقَالَ: أَتُحِبُّنِى يَا عُمَرُ؟ قَالَ. لأَنْتَ (أَحَبُّ) إلَىَّ مِنْ كُلِّ شَىْءٍ إِلَّا نَفْسِى، فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِىُّ ﷺ: وَالَّذِي نَفْسِى بِيَدِهِ حَتَّى أكوُن أَحَبَّ إِلَيْكَ مِنْ نَفْسِكَ، فَقَالَ عُمرُ: فَأَنْتَ يَا رَسُولَ الله أَحَبُّ إلَىَّ مِنْ نَفْسِى، فَقَالَ النَّبِىُّ ﷺ: الآنَ يَا عُمَرُ".

"From Abu 'Aqil, from his grandfather who said: We were with the Prophet ﷺ while he was holding the hand of 'Umar ibn al-Khattab. He said: 'Do you love me, O 'Umar?' He said: 'You are more beloved to me than everything except my own self.' The Prophet ﷺ said to him: 'By the One in whose hand my soul is, not until I am more beloved to you than your own self.' 'Umar said: 'Then you, O Messenger of Allah, are more beloved to me than my own self.' The Prophet ﷺ said: 'Now, O 'Umar.'"
