مُسْنَدِ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ
Chapter :
Musnad Ahmad 234
It was narrated that 'Umar bin al-Khattab (رضي الله عنه) said
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) shared out (some wealth) and I said, "By Allah, O Messenger of Allah, others deserved to have it more than these people." He said: "They gave me the choice of having them ask importunately or regard me as a miser, and I am not a miser."حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، أَنْبَأَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ شَقِيقِ بْنِ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ سَلْمَانَ بْنِ رَبِيعَةَ، عَنْ عُمَرَ، رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ قَسَمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قِسْمَةً فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ لَغَيْرُ هَؤُلَاءِ أَحَقُّ مِنْهُمْ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنَّهُمْ خَيَّرُونِي بَيْنَ أَنْ يَسْأَلُونِي بِالْفُحْشِ أَوْ يُبَخِّلُونِي فَلَسْتُ بِبَاخِلٍ.
Chapter :
Musnad Ahmad 23489
On the authority of Abu Nadra who said
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said on the middle day of the days of at-Tashreeq: “O people, verily your Lord is one and your father is one. Verily there is no superiority of an Arab over a non-Arab or of a non-Arab over an Arab, or of a red man over a black man, or of a black man over a red man, except in terms of taqwa (piety). Have I conveyed the message?” They said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ has conveyed the message.
