الزهد لأحمد:١٧٤٠حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ مَعِينٍ حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ هِشَامًا يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ خَالِدٍ الرَّبَعِيِّ قَالَ

فِي التَّوْرَاةِ أَوْ فِي بَعْضِ الْكُتُبِ «السَّمَاءُ تَبْكِي عَلَى عُمَرَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ رَحِمَهُ اللَّهُ أَرْبَعِينَ سَنَةً بُكَاءَ حَزِينٍ»
