حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ ابْنُ الْإِمَامِ، ثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ وَكِيعٍ، ثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَكْرٍ الْبُرْسَانِيُّ، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ
أَنَّ عُمَرَ فَرَضَ لِأُسَامَةَ بْنِ زَيْدٍ فِي ثَلَاثَةِ آلَافٍ وَخَمْسِ مِائَةٍ، وَفَرَضَ لِابْنِهِ فِي ثَلَاثَةِ آلَافٍ، فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ لِأَبِيهِ: لِمَ فَضَّلْتَ أُسَامَةَ عَلَيَّ، فَوَاللهِ مَا سَبَقَنِي إِلَى مَشْهَدٍ ؟ قَالَ: " لِأَنَّ زَيْدًا كَانَ أَحَبَّ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ مِنْ أَبِيكَ، وَكَانَ أُسَامَةُ أَحَبَّ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ مِنْكَ، فَآثَرْتُ حِبَّ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى حِبِّي

✧ 'Umar allotted for Usamah b. Zayd three thousand five hundred, and for his own son three thousand. 'Abd Allah said to his father: "Why did you favor Usamah over me? By God, he did not precede me to any scene of battle." He said: "Because Zayd was dearer to the Messenger of God ﷺ than your father, and Usamah was dearer to the Messenger of God ﷺ than you. So I preferred the beloved of the Messenger of God ﷺ over my own beloved."
