حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو شُعَيْبٍ الْحَرَّانِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ النُّفَيْلِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي الزُّهْرِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ بْنُ أَبِي بَكْرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ أَبِي هِشَامٍ عَنْ أَبِيهَ عَنْ عَبْدَ اللهَ بْنَ زَمْعَةُ بْنَ الْأَسْوَدَ بْنَ الْمُطَّلِبَ بْنَ أَسَدٍ قَالَ
لَمَّا اسْتُعِزَّ بِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَنَا عِنْدَهُ فِي نَفَرٍ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ دَعَا بِلَالٌ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ فَقَالَ «مُرُوا مَنْ يُصَلِّي بِالنَّاسِ» فَخَرَجْتُ فَإِذَا عُمَرُ فِي النَّاسِ وَكَانَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ غَائِبًا فَقُلْتُ يَا عُمَرُ قُمْ فَصَلِّ بِالنَّاسِ فَقَامَ فَلَمَّا كَبَّرَ سَمِعَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ صَوْتَهُ وَكَانَ عُمَرُ رَجُلًا جَهِيرًا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «فَأَيْنَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ؟ يَأْبَى اللهُ وَالْمُسْلِمُونَ ذَلِكَ» فَبَعَثَ إِلَى أَبِي بَكْرٍ فَجَاءَ بَعْدَ أَنْ صَلَّى عُمَرُ تِلْكَ الصَّلَاةَ فَصَلَّى بِالنَّاسِ قَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ زَمْعَةَ فَقَالَ لِي عُمَرُ وَيْحَكَ مَاذَا صَنَعْتَ بِي يَا ابْنَ زَمْعَةَ؟ وَاللهِ مَا ظَنَنْتُ حِينَ أَمَرْتَنِي إِلَّا أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ أَمَرَكَ بِذَلِكَ وَلَوْلَا ذَلِكَ مَا صَلَّيْتُ بِالنَّاسِ قُلْتُ وَاللهِ مَا أَمَرَنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَلَكِنْ حِينَ لَمْ أَرَ أَبَا بَكْرٍ رَأَيْتُكَ أَحَقَّ مَنْ حَضَرَ بِالصَّلَاةِ مِنَ النَّاسِ

✧ When the Messenger of God ﷺ became gravely ill and I was with him among a group of Muslims, Bilal called to prayer. He said: "Tell someone to lead the people in prayer." I went out and found Umar among the people, while Abu Bakr was absent. I said: "O Umar, stand up and lead the people in prayer." He stood up, and when he said the takbir, the Messenger of God ﷺ heard his voice, for Umar was a loud-voiced man. The Messenger of God ﷺ said: "Where is Abu Bakr? God and the Muslims refuse that." He sent for Abu Bakr, and he came after Umar had prayed that prayer, then he led the people in prayer. Abdullah b. Zam'a said: Umar said to me: "Woe to you, what have you done to me, O Ibn Zam'a? By God, when you commanded me, I only thought that the Messenger of God ﷺ had ordered you to do that. Had it not been for that, I would not have led the people in prayer." I said: "By God, the Messenger of God ﷺ did not command me, but when I did not see Abu Bakr, I considered you the most deserving of those present to lead the people in prayer."
