Yahya bin Abdur Rahman narrates that Sayyiduna Umar bin Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) went out with a group of riders, among whom was Sayyiduna Amr bin As (may Allah be pleased with him) as well. On the way, they came across a reservoir, so Sayyiduna Amr bin As (may Allah be pleased with him) asked the owner of the reservoir, "Do wild animals come to your reservoir to drink water?" Upon this, Sayyiduna Umar bin Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "O owner of the reservoir! Do not tell us, because sometimes the wild animals come before us and sometimes we come before the wild animals."
