(One day) I sat along with Shaiba on the chair inside the Kaʿba. He (Shaiba) said, "No doubt, ʿUmar sat at this place and said, 'I intended not to leave any yellow (i.e. gold) or white (i.e. silver) (inside the Kaʿba) undistributed.' I said (to ʿUmar), 'But your two companions (i.e. The Prophet ﷺ and Abu Bakr) did not do so.' ʿUmar said, They are the two persons whom I always follow.' "  

جَلَسْتُ مَعَ شَيْبَةَ عَلَى الْكُرْسِيِّ فِي الْكَعْبَةِ فَقَالَ لَقَدْ جَلَسَ هَذَا الْمَجْلِسَ عُمَرُ ؓ فَقَالَ لَقَدْ هَمَمْتُ أَنْ لاَ أَدَعَ فِيهَا صَفْرَاءَ وَلاَ بَيْضَاءَ إِلاَّ قَسَمْتُهُ قُلْتُ إِنَّ صَاحِبَيْكَ لَمْ يَفْعَلاَ قَالَ هُمَا الْمَرْآنِ أَقْتَدِي بِهِمَا  

[Machine] "That I will not leave in it (referring to a specific context) neither the yellow nor the white, unless I divide it between the Muslims." He (someone) said, "I asked, what are you doing?" He (the person speaking in the passage) said, "Why?" I said, "Didn't your companions do it?" He said, "They are the two individuals that people should follow."  

أَنْ لَا أَدَعَ فِيهَا صَفْرَاءَ وَلَا بَيْضَاءَ إِلَّا قَسَمْتُهَا بَيْنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ قَالَ قُلْتُ مَا أَنْتَ بِفَاعِلٍ قَالَ لِمَ؟ قُلْتُ لَمْ يَفْعَلْهُ صَاحِبَاكَ قَالَ هُمَا الْمَرْءَانِ يُقْتَدَى بِهِمَا  

[Machine] Umru bin al-Khattab sat next to me and said, "I had a desire not to leave any yellow or white (camels) except that I would divide them, I mean the Kaaba." Shaybah replied, so I said to him, "You had two companions who did not do as the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and Abu Bakr did." Umar said, "Those two are the ones I follow."  

لِي جَلَسَ إِلَيَّ عُمَرُ مَجْلِسَكَ هَذَا فَقَالَ لَقَدْ «هَمَمْتُ أَنْ لَا أَتْرُكَ فِيهَا صَفْرَاءَ وَلَا بَيْضَاءَ إِلَّا قَسَّمْتُهَا يَعْنِي الْكَعْبَةَ» قَالَ شَيْبَةُ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ إِنَّهُ كَانَ لَكَ صَاحِبَانِ لَمْ يَفْعَلَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ ؓ قَالَ عُمَرُ ؓ «هُمَا الْمَرْآنِ أَقْتَدِي بِهِمَا»
