حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو يَزِيدَ الْقَرَاطِيسِيُّ ثنا أَسَدُ بْنُ مُوسَى ثنا الْمَسْعُودِيُّ ثنا عَاصِمٌ عَنْ شَقِيقٍ قَالَ قَالَ
عَبْدُ اللهِ لَقِيَ الشَّيْطَانُ رَجُلًا مِنْ أَصْحَابِ مُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ فَصَارَعَهُ فَتَعَرَهُ الْمُسْلِمُ وَأَرَمَّ بِإِبْهَامِهِ فَقَالَ دَعْنِي أُعَلِّمْكَ آيَةً لَا يَسْمَعُهَا أَحَدٌ مِنَّا إِلَّا وَلَّى فَأَرْسَلَهُ فَأَبَى أَنْ يُعَلِّمَهُ فَعَادَ فَصَارَعَهُ فَتَعَرَهُ الْمُسْلِمُ وَأَرَمَّ بِإِبْهَامِهِ قَالَ أَخْبِرْنِي بِهَا فَأَبَى أَنْ يُعَلِّمَهُ فَلَمَّا عَادَ الثَّالِثَةَ قَالَ الْآيَةُ الَّتِي فِي سُورَةِ الْبَقَرَةِ {اللهُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا هُوَ الْحَيُّ الْقَيُّومُ} إِلَى آخِرِهَا فَقِيلَ لِعَبْدِ اللهِ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ مَنْ ذَلِكَ الرَّجُلُ؟ فَقَالَ «مَنْ عَسَى أَنْ يَكُونَ إِلَّا عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ ؓ »

✧ ʿAbdullāh said: Satan met a man from among the companions of Muḥammad ﷺ and wrestled with him. The Muslim threw him down and pressed his thumb. He said: “Let me go and I will teach you a verse that none of us hears except that he turns away.” So he released him, but he refused to teach him. He returned and wrestled with him again, and the Muslim threw him down and pressed his thumb. He said: “Tell me it.” But he refused to teach him. When he returned the third time, he said: “The verse in Sūrat al-Baqarah: {Allāh—there is no deity except Him, the Ever-Living, the Self-Sustaining} to its end.” It was said to ʿAbdullāh: “O Abū ʿAbd al-Raḥmān, who was that man?” He said: “Who could it be except ʿUmar b. al-Khaṭṭāb ؓ ?”
