"أمُتَهَوِّكُونَ فيها يا بن الخطَّابِ، والذي نفْسِي بيدِه لقد جئتُكم بها بيضاءَ نَقِيَّةً، لا تسألوهم عن شيء فَيُخْبِرُوكم بحق فتكذِّبونه. وبباطلٍ فَتُصَدِّقُونه. والذي نَفْسِى بيَدِه لو أن موسى كان حيًّا مَا وَسِعَهُ إِلَّا أَنْ يَتَّبِعَنِي".  

[حم] أحمد عن جابر أن عُمَرَ أتى النبي ﷺ بكتاب أصابه من بعض أَهل الكِتَابِ فَغَضبَ، وقال: فذكره

[Machine] "Umar ibn Al-Khattab came to the Prophet ﷺ with a book that he received from some of the People of the Book. He read it to the Prophet ﷺ , who became angry and said, 'Are you confused by it, O Umar ibn Al-Khattab? By the One in Whose Hand my soul is, I have brought it to you in a pure, immaculate form. Do not ask them about anything for they might inform you of the truth and you deny it, or they might inform you of falsehood and you believe it. By the One in Whose Hand my soul is, if Moses were alive, he would have no choice but to follow me.'"  

أحمد:١٥١٥٦حَدَّثَنَا سُرَيْجُ بْنُ النُّعْمَانِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ أَخْبَرَنَا مُجَالِدٌ عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ

أَنَّ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ أَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ بِكِتَابٍ أَصَابَهُ مِنْ بَعْضِ أَهْلِ الْكُتُبِ فَقَرَأَهُ عَلَى النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَغَضِبَ وَقَالَ أَمُتَهَوِّكُونَ فِيهَا يَا ابْنَ الْخَطَّابِ وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَقَدْ جِئْتُكُمْ بِهَا بَيْضَاءَ نَقِيَّةً لَا تَسْأَلُوهُمْ عَنْ شَيْءٍ فَيُخْبِرُوكُمْ بِحَقٍّ فَتُكَذِّبُوا بِهِ أَوْ بِبَاطِلٍ فَتُصَدِّقُوا بِهِ وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَوْ أَنَّ مُوسَى كَانَ حَيًّا مَا وَسِعَهُ إِلَّا أَنْ يَتَّبِعَنِي
