ذِكْرُ وَصْفِ إِسْلَامِ عُمَرَ رِضْوَانُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ وَقَدْ فَعَلَ

ibnhibban:6879ʿAbdullāh b. Muḥammad al-Azdī > Isḥāq b. Ibrāhīm > Wahbb. Jarīr from my father > Muḥammad b. Isḥāq > Nāfiʿ > Ibn ʿUmar > Lammā Aslam ʿUmar b. al-Khaṭṭāb Lam Taʿlam Quraysh Biʾislāmih

[Machine] By Allah, no word was mentioned to him until he stood up intently towards the Mosque and called out the people of Quraysh. He said, "O people of Quraysh, indeed the son of Al-Khattab has taken over." Umar said, "He lied, but indeed I have embraced Islam, believed in Allah, and affirmed His Messenger." Then they confronted him and fought with him until the sun set on their heads. Umar got injured and sat down. They stood over his head, and Umar said, "Do whatever seems best to you. By Allah, if we were three hundred men, you would not have escaped us, or we would have not left it to you." While they were in that situation, a man came wearing a silk robe and a Qumiss garment. He asked, "What is happening?" They said, "Indeed the son of Al-Khattab has taken over." He said, "It seems as if a garment has been removed from him." Then I said to him later in Medina, "Father, who was the man who defended you that day?" He said, "O my son, that was Tha'alib bin Wail."  

ابن حبّان:٦٨٧٩أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْأَزْدِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ أَخْبَرَنَا وَهْبُ بْنُ جَرِيرٍ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي قَالَ سَمِعْتُ مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ إِسْحَاقَ* يَقُولُ حَدَّثَنَا نَافِعٌ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ لَمَّا أَسْلَمَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ ؓ لَمْ تَعْلَمْ قُرَيْشٌ بِإِسْلَامِهِ فَقَالَ «أَيْ أَهْلُ مَكَّةَ أَنْشَأُ لِلْحَدِيثِ؟ » فَقَالُوا جَمِيلُ بْنُ مَعْمَرٍ الْجُمَحِيُّ فَخَرَجَ إِلَيْهِ وَأَنَا مَعَهُ أَتْبَعُ أَثَرَهُ أَعْقِلُ مَا أَرَى وَأَسْمَعُ فَأَتَاهُ فَقَالَ «يَا جَمِيلُ إِنِّي قَدْ أَسْلَمْتُ» قَالَ
