On one occasion, Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) addressed the Black Stone and said, "You are merely a stone. If I had not seen the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) kissing you, I would never have kissed you." Saying this, he kissed it.

Urwah says: I saw that once Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) came to the Black Stone and said to it: I know that you are a stone, you can neither benefit nor harm anyone. If I had not seen the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) kissing you, I would never have kissed you. Saying this, he kissed it.

Suwaid bin Ghaflah (may Allah have mercy on him) says that I saw once that Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) embraced the Black Stone and kissed it, and addressing it, said: "I have seen Abu al-Qasim (peace and blessings be upon him) showing kindness to you."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When night comes from here and the day departs from there, then the fasting person should break his fast; by this, east and west are meant."

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 one who gives charity and then takes it back is like the person who vomits from his mouth and then licks it up."

Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said that the polytheists would not return before sunrise and used to say, "Let Mount Thabir become illuminated so that we may attack." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not adopt their way and departed from Muzdalifah towards Mina before sunrise, while the Fajr prayer could be offered according to the amount of time taken by those who pray it in brightness.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) that I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: The deceased is punished because of the weeping of his family over him.

Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) says that I myself saw with my own eyes the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) wiping over his leather socks while traveling.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to seek Allah’s refuge from five things: from miserliness, from cowardice, from the trial of the heart, from the punishment of the grave, and from an evil old age.

Abdullah bin Buraidah (may Allah have mercy on him) says that once Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) was sitting at the place where the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to sit, and funeral processions would pass by there. A funeral passed by, and the people praised the deceased. Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "It has become obligatory." Then a second funeral passed by, and the people praised that deceased as well. Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) again said: "It has become obligatory." The same happened with the third funeral. When the fourth funeral passed by, the people said: "He was the biggest liar." Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "The greatest liar among the people is the one who lies most against Allah. After him are those who lie against the soul present in their own bodies." The people asked: "Tell us, if four people testify to the goodness of a Muslim, what is the ruling?" He replied: "Paradise becomes obligatory for him." The people asked: "And if there are three?" He said: "The same ruling applies." We asked about two, and he said: "Even if there are two, the same ruling applies." If I had asked about one, it would have been more beloved to me than red camels. Someone asked Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him): "Are you saying this from your own opinion, or did you hear it from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)?" He replied: "No, rather I heard it from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)."
