It is narrated from Hazrat Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that when Hazrat Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) dismissed Hazrat Shurahbil bin Hasnah (may Allah be pleased with him), he said, "O Umar (may Allah be pleased with you)! Have you dismissed me due to any displeasure?" He replied, "No, but we have found a man stronger than you." Hazrat Shurahbil (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "Then excuse me." So Hazrat Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) stood on the pulpit and said, "We had appointed Shurahbil bin Hasnah as an official, then we dismissed him without any displeasure, the reason being that we found someone stronger than him. We feared Allah Almighty that we might keep him in his position while we have found someone stronger than him." After this, Hazrat Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) saw in the evening that he (Shurahbil) was going to the official who had been appointed, and Hazrat Shurahbil (may Allah be pleased with him) was sitting with his hands folded alone. He (Umar) said, "The world is indeed despicable."
