It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that once it was mentioned before Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) that Samrah had sold wine. He said: May Allah destroy him. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: May Allah curse the Jews, for fat was made unlawful for them, but they melted it, turned it into oil, and began to sell it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) that the wealth obtained from Banu Nadir was from the category of Fay’ (spoils of war without battle), which Allah granted to His Prophet, and the Muslims did not have to ride horses or any other mounts for it. Therefore, this wealth was exclusively for the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would give his pure wives their yearly maintenance from it at once, and whatever remained, he would use to provide horses and other weapons that could be used in jihad.

Once, Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said to Sayyiduna Abdur Rahman bin Awf, Sayyiduna Talha, Sayyiduna Zubair, and Sayyiduna Sa’d (may Allah be pleased with them): I ask you by Allah, by Whose command the heavens and the earth are established, do you know that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:“Inheritance is not established in our wealth; whatever we leave behind is all charity?”They replied in the affirmative.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The child belongs to the (owner of the) bed."

Ya'la bin Umayyah says that I asked Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) that the command of shortening the prayer (qasr) in the Holy Qur'an has been given in the state of "fear," but now there is peace and security everywhere, so has this command ended? (If so, then why does this verse still exist in the Qur'an?) So Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) replied that I was also surprised in the same way as you are, and I also asked the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) about this. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "This is a charity from Allah which He has bestowed upon His servants, so accept this charity and kindness."

Qais bin Marwan says that once I presented myself before Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) and said, "O Leader of the Believers! I am coming to you from Kufa. There, I have left behind a man who is dictating the Noble Qur’an from his memory." Upon hearing this, Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) became enraged, and his veins swelled so much that both sides of the saddle were filled by them. He asked me, "Alas! Who is he?" I mentioned the name of Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas’ud (may Allah be pleased with him). I saw that as soon as he heard his name, Sayyiduna Umar’s (may Allah be pleased with him) anger began to subside, and that state started to disappear until he became normal, and he said to me, "Wretch! I swear by Allah, to my knowledge, among the people, no one is more deserving of this than him. And I will tell you a hadith about this. The blessed practice of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was that at night, he would go with Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) to consult about the affairs of the Muslims. Once, in the same way, at night, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was engaged in conversation with him, and I was also present there. After finishing, when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) left from there, we also left with him. We saw a man standing in the mosque, performing prayer. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) stood to listen to his recitation. While we were trying to recognize the voice of that man, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, 'Whoever wishes to recite the Qur’an as fresh as it was revealed, let him recite it according to the recitation of Ibn Umm Abd.' Then that man sat down and began to supplicate. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to him, 'Ask, you will be given.' Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) says, 'I thought in my heart that as soon as morning comes, I will surely give him this glad tidings.' So, when I went in the morning to give him this glad tidings, I found Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) was already there. He had preceded me in this matter as well."

Abis bin Rabi'ah says that I once saw Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) kissing the Black Stone and addressing it, saying: "I know that you are a stone, but I am still kissing you. If I had not seen the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) kissing you, I would never have kissed you."

Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) once, while traveling, delivered a sermon at "Jabiyah" and said that once the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) stood to deliver a sermon just as I am standing, and said: I advise you to treat my companions well, and this command is also for those who come after them, and for those who come after them as well. After that, there will come a people who will be ready to swear an oath before being asked to do so, and a man will be ready to give testimony before being asked for it. So whoever among you desires a place in Paradise should adhere to the "Jama'ah" (the main body), for the devil is with the lone person and is farther from two. Beware! None of you should sit in seclusion with a woman, for the third among them is the devil. And whoever is pleased by his good deed and saddened by his bad deed, he is a believer.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) that it was the blessed practice of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) to visit Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) every night to consult regarding the affairs of the Muslims, and on one occasion, I was also present at that time.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) that I never asked the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) about anything more than I asked about "kalalah," until once the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) placed his finger on my chest and said: "The last verse of Surah An-Nisa, which was revealed in the summer, is sufficient for you."
