[Machine] The good boy followed me and a man who was with him said, "O son of my brother, pray to Allah for me with goodness." I said, "And who are you? May Allah bless you." He said, "I am Abu Dhar, a companion of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ." So I said, "May Allah forgive you, you are more deserving of praying for me than I am for you." He said, "O son of my brother, I heard Umar ibn Al-Khattab say, when I passed by him, 'Indeed, the good boy.' And I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, 'Verily, Allah placed the truth on the tongue of Umar.'"

[Machine] "He was indeed a good young man. Abu Dharr met him and said, 'O Brother, ask forgiveness for me.' He replied, 'You are the companion of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and you are most deserving to ask forgiveness for me.' Abu Dharr said, 'I heard Umar ibn al-Khattab saying, 'He was indeed a good young man, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'Verily, Allah struck with truth both on the tongue and in the heart of Umar.' Abdul Rahman bin Awf said on the tongue of Umar."

He said, "Indeed, I heard Umar saying, 'What a good boy,' and I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, 'Verily, Allah put the truth on the tongue of Umar.'"
