For today, I am not the leader of the believers. And say, 'Umar bin Khattab seeks permission to be buried with his two companions.'" He greeted and sought permission, then he entered upon her and found her sitting and crying. He said, "Umar bin Khattab sends greetings to you, and seeks permission to be buried with his two companions." She said, "I wanted it for myself, and I will give him preference today over myself." He came, and when he arrived, it was said, "This is Abdullah bin Umar who has come." He said, "Raise me up." So a man supported him, and he said, "What do you have?" He said, "What you love, O Amir al-Mu'minin, has been granted permission." He said, "Praise be to Allah! Nothing was more important than this bed. When I die, carry me and then greet and say, 'Umar bin Khattab seeks permission.' If she gives you permission, then enter me, and if she denies me, return me to the Muslims' cemetery." He mentioned the hadith, saying, "When he passed away, we carried him and started walking. Abdullah bin Umar greeted and said, 'Umar bin Khattab seeks permission.' She said, 'Let him enter.' So he was brought in and placed next to his two companions."
