حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، عَنْ صَالِحٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي عَبْدُ الْحَمِيدِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ، أَنَّ مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ سَعْدِ بْنِ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ، أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ أَبَاهُ سَعْدَ بْنَ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ قَالَ اسْتَأْذَنَ عُمَرُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم، وَعِنْدَهُ نِسَاءٌ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ يُكَلِّمْنَهُ وَيَسْتَكْثِرْنَهُ، عَالِيَةً أَصْوَاتُهُنَّ، فَلَمَّا اسْتَأْذَنَ عُمَرُ، قُمْنَ يَبْتَدِرْنَ الْحِجَابَ، فَأَذِنَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم، وَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَضْحَكُ، فَقَالَ عُمَرُ أَضْحَكَ اللَّهُ سِنَّكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ. قَالَ " عَجِبْتُ مِنْ هَؤُلاَءِ اللاَّتِي كُنَّ عِنْدِي، فَلَمَّا سَمِعْنَ صَوْتَكَ ابْتَدَرْنَ الْحِجَابَ ". قَالَ عُمَرُ فَأَنْتَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ كُنْتَ أَحَقَّ أَنْ يَهَبْنَ. ثُمَّ قَالَ أَىْ عَدُوَّاتِ أَنْفُسِهِنَّ، أَتَهَبْنَنِي وَلاَ تَهَبْنَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قُلْنَ نَعَمْ، أَنْتَ أَفَظُّ وَأَغْلَظُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم. قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ مَا لَقِيَكَ الشَّيْطَانُ قَطُّ سَالِكًا فَجًّا إِلاَّ سَلَكَ فَجًّا غَيْرَ فَجِّكَ ".
ʿAli ibn ʿAbd Allah narrated to us: Yaʿqub ibn Ibrahim narrated to us: My father narrated to us, from Salih, from Ibn Shihab, who said: ʿAbd al-Hamid ibn ʿAbd al-Rahman ibn Zayd informed me that Muhammad ibn Saʿd ibn Abi Waqqas informed him that his father, Saʿd ibn Abi Waqqas, said: ʿUmar asked permission to enter upon the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, while some Qurayshi women were with him, speaking to him and asking him for more, their voices raised. When ʿUmar asked permission, they hurried behind the screen. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ gave him permission and was smiling. ʿUmar said, ‘May Allah keep you smiling, Messenger of Allah.’ He replied, ‘I was amazed by these women who were with me: when they heard your voice, they hurried behind the screen.’ ʿUmar said, ‘Messenger of Allah, you are more deserving that they should fear you.’ Then he said, ‘O enemies of your own selves! You fear me but do not fear the Messenger of Allah ﷺ?’ They said, ‘Yes, for you are harsher and sterner than the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.’ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, ‘By the One in Whose hand is my soul, whenever Satan encounters you on a path, he takes a path other than yours.’
Translation notes
The Arabic says they spoke to him and ‘asked much of him’; the English witness specifies financial support, which is not stated in this Arabic text.
