Abu Al-Hakam says that I asked Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) about the nabidh (fermented drink) of a pitcher, so he narrated this hadith from Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade (the use of) pitchers, gourds, green oily pots, or vessels.

Abdullah bin Sarjis says that I once saw Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) kissing the Black Stone, and addressing it, he said, "I know that you are a stone, but I have seen the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) kissing you."

Juwairiyah bin Qudamah says that the year in which Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) was martyred, I was blessed to perform Hajj that year. I also visited Madinah Munawwarah, where Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) delivered a sermon and said: "I saw in a dream that a red rooster pecked me once or twice," and it happened just like that, as he was wounded by a spear in the assassination attempt. Anyway, people were allowed to visit him, so first the noble Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) came to him, then the general people of Madinah, then the people of Shaam, and then the people of Iraq. I was among those who entered with the people of Iraq. Whenever a group of people went to him, they praised him and tears flowed from his eyes. When we entered his room, we saw that his stomach was tied with a white turban, but a stream of blood was still flowing from it. We requested him for a will, which no one before us had done. Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "Hold fast to the Book of Allah, for as long as you follow it, you will never go astray." We requested further advice, so he said: "I advise you to treat the Muhajireen well, for people are always few or many. I also advise you to treat the Ansar well, for they are the fortress of Islam where the people of Islam took refuge. Also, treat the Bedouins well, for they are your origin and your substance. And I advise you to treat the Dhimmis well, for they are under the responsibility of your Prophet (with whom you have a covenant) and are the means of livelihood for your families." Now go, he did not say anything more than this. However, the narrator added on another occasion regarding the Bedouins that "they are your brothers and the enemies of your enemy."

Juwairiyah bin Qudamah says that the year in which Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) was martyred, I was blessed with the opportunity to perform Hajj that year. I also visited Madinah Munawwarah, where Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) delivered a sermon and said: "I saw in a dream that a red rooster pecked me once or twice." So, only one Friday had passed when he was attacked. Then the narrator mentioned the complete hadith, and that he (Umar) said: "I advise you to treat the dhimmis well, for they are under the responsibility of your Prophet (peace be upon him) (he has made a covenant with them). And regarding the villagers, he said: 'I advise you to treat the villagers well, for they are your brothers and the enemies of your enemies.'"

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that such people have testified to me whose words are trustworthy, among them is Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him), who in my view is the most trustworthy of them all, that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) forbade that after the Fajr prayer until sunrise, no prayer should be performed, and after the Asr prayer until sunset, no voluntary prayer should be performed.

Suwaid bin Ghaflah reports that Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) while delivering a sermon at "Jabiyah" said that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade (men) from wearing silk, except for an amount equal to two, three, or four fingers, and while saying this, Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) also gestured with his palm.

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 deceased is punished in his grave because of the lamentation that is done over him."

Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: One day we were sitting in the company of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) when suddenly a man came walking. He was dressed in strong, white clothes and had extremely black hair. There were no signs of travel visible on him, nor did any of us recognize him. That man came and sat near the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). He joined his knees with the knees of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and placed his hands on the thighs of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said, "O Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him)! Tell me about Islam, what is Islam?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) replied: "To bear witness that there is no deity except Allah and that Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) is the Messenger of Allah, to establish prayer, to give zakat, to fast in Ramadan, and to perform Hajj to the House of Allah." He affirmed (the words of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him), so we were amazed at his questioning and then confirming. He then asked, "What is Iman (faith)?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) replied: "That you believe in Allah, His angels, His books, His messengers, the Last Day, and in destiny, both its good and its bad." He said, "You have spoken the truth." Then he asked, "What is Ihsan (excellence)?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) replied: "That you worship Allah as if you see Him, and if you cannot see Him, then (know that) He surely sees you (so always keep in mind that Allah is watching us)." He then asked, "When will the Hour (Day of Judgment) come?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) replied: "The one being questioned knows no more about it than the questioner (meaning, both of us are unaware in this matter)." He said, "Then tell me some of its signs." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) replied: "When you see those who were barefoot, naked, and destitute—shepherds—competing in constructing tall buildings, and when slave women give birth to their mistresses, then the Hour is near." Then that man left, and after a while, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to me, "O Umar! Do you know who that questioner was?" I replied, "Allah and His Messenger know best." He said, "That was Jibreel (Gabriel, peace be upon him), who came to teach you the important matters of your religion."

The previous hadith has also been narrated through this second chain of transmission.

Abu Nadrah says that I asked Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Zubair (may Allah be pleased with him) forbids Hajj Tamattu', while Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) permits it. What is the reason for this? He narrated a hadith to me, saying that I performed Hajj Tamattu' in the presence of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and according to one narration, in the presence of Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him). But when Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) became the caliph, he addressed the people in a sermon and said: "The Qur'an is the Qur'an, and the Prophet is the Prophet. In the blessed era of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), there were two types of Mut'ah: one was Mut'at al-Hajj, which is called Hajj Tamattu', and the other was Mut'at al-Nisa', which is to give women something in the form of clothes at the time of divorce as a recommended act."
