[Machine] I approached the Prophet of Allah ﷺ and said, "O Prophet of Allah, I have composed a poem in which I praised and glorified Allah the Almighty and praised you." He replied, "As for what you praised Allah with, give it to me, and as for what you praised me with, leave it." So I recited the part praising Allah, then a tall man entered and said to me, "Stop." When he left, he said, "Continue." I began reciting again, and before long, he returned and said, "Stop." When he left again, he said, "Continue." So I asked the Prophet of Allah, "Who is this man, O Prophet of Allah, that when he enters, you say 'stop' and when he leaves, you say 'continue'?" The Prophet replied, "This is Umar ibn Al-Khattab, and he does not interfere without reason."
قَدِمْتُ عَلَى نَبِيِّ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقُلْتُ يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ قَدْ قُلْتُ شَعْرًا ثَنَيْتُ فِيهِ عَلَى اللَّهِ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى وَمَدَحْتُكَ فَقَالَ «أَمَا مَا أَثْنَيْتَ عَلَى اللَّهِ تَعَالَى فَهَاتِهِ وَمَا مَدَحْتَنِي بِهِ فَدَعْهُ» فَجَعَلْتُ أُنْشِدُهُ فَدَخَلَ رَجُلٌ طُوَالٌ أَقْنَى فَقَالَ لِي «أَمْسِكْ» فَلَمَّا خَرَجَ قَالَ «هَاتِ» فَجَعَلْتُ أُنْشِدُهُ فَلَمْ أَلْبَثْ أَنْ عَادَ فَقَالَ لِي أَمْسِكْ فَلَمَّا خَرَجَ قَالَ هَاتِ فَقُلْتُ مَنْ هَذَا يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ الَّذِي إِذَا دَخَلَ قُلْتَ أَمْسِكْ وَإِذَا خَرَجَ قُلْتَ هَاتِ؟ قَالَ «هَذَا عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ وَلَيْسَ مِنَ الْبَاطِلِ فِي شَيْءٍ»
