حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ النَّضْرِ الْأَزْدِيُّ ثنا مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو ثنا زَائِدَةُ عَنْ عَاصِمٍ عَنْ زِرٍّ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ قَالَ

«إِذَا ذُكِرَ الصَّالِحُونَ فَحَيَّ هَلَا بِعُمَرَ إِنَّ إِسْلَامَهُ كَانَ نَصْرًا وَإِنَّ إِمَارَتَهُ كَانَتْ فَتْحًا وَايْمُ اللهِ مَا أَعْلَمُ عَلَى الْأَرْضِ شَيْئًا إِلَّا وَقَدْ وَجَدَ فَقْدَ عُمَرَ حَتَّى الْعِضَاهَ وَايْمُ اللهِ إِنِّي لَأَحْسِبُ بَيْنَ عَيْنَيْهِ مَلَكًا يُسَدِّدُهُ وَيُرْشِدُهُ وَايْمُ اللهِ إِنِّي لَأَحْسِبُ الشَّيْطَانَ يَفْرَقُ مِنْهُ أَنْ يُحْدِثَ فِي الْإِسْلَامِ حَدَثًا فَيَرُدَّ عَلَيْهِ عُمَرُ وَايْمُ اللهِ لَوْ أَعْلَمُ كَلْبًا يُحِبُّ عُمَرَ لَأَحْبَبْتُهُ»

✧ When the righteous are mentioned, then hail to ʿUmar. His acceptance of Islam was a victory, and his rule was a conquest. By God, I know of nothing on the earth except that it felt the loss of ʿUmar—even the thorny trees. By God, I reckon that between his eyes there is an angel who guides him and directs him aright. By God, I reckon that Satan is afraid of him, lest he introduce something new into Islam and ʿUmar refute him. By God, if I knew of a dog that loved ʿUmar, I would love it.
