I was a Christian, then I became Muslim. I thought long and hard, and decided to enter ihram for Hajj and ʿUmrah. I passed by Salman bin Rabeeʿah and Zaid bin Soohan in al-ʿUdhaib, and one of them said: Are you doing both of them? His companion said to him. Let him be; he is more misguided than his came! He [as-Subayy] said: It was as if my camel was on my shoulders [i.e., because he was so upset by their words]. I went to ‘Umar and told him about that. ‘Umar said to me: They did not say anything (that matters); you have been guided to the Sunnah of your Prophet ﷺ.
لَهُ صَاحِبُهُ دَعْهُ فَلَهُوَ أَضَلُّ مِنْ بَعِيرِهِ قَالَ فَكَأَنَّمَا بَعِيرِي عَلَى عُنُقِي فَأَتَيْتُ عُمَرَ فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لَهُ فَقَالَ لِي عُمَرُ إِنَّهُمَا لَمْ يَقُولا شَيْئًا هُدِيتَ لِسُنَّةِ نَبِيِّكَ ﷺ
