[Machine] Hassan chanted in the mosque, so Umar passed by him and noticed him. Umar asked, "In the mosque? In the mosque?" Hassan replied, "By Allah, I have chanted in it someone who is better than you, and I feared that he would throw him out by the Messenger of Allah ﷺ." So Umar gave him permission and left him.

أنْشَدَ حَسَّانُ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ فَمَرَّ بِهِ عُمَرُ ؓ فَلَحَظَهُ فَقَالَ أَفِي الْمَسْجِدِ؟ أَفِي الْمَسْجِدِ؟ فَقَالَ وَاللهِ لَقَدْ أَنْشَدْتُ فِيهِ مَنْ هُوَ خَيْرٌ مِنْكَ فَخَشِيَ أَنْ يَرْمِيَهُ بِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَجَازَ وَتَرَكَهُ

" عَن ابنِ المسيَّب قَالَ: أَنْشَدَ حَسَّانُ بنُ ثَابِتٍ فِى المسْجِدِ، فَمَرَّ بِهِ عُمَرُ فَلَحَظَهُ، فَقَالَ حَسَّانُ: والله لَقَدْ أَنْشَدْتُ فِيهِ وَفِيهِ مَنْ هُوَ خَيرٌ مِنْكَ، فَخَشِىَ أَنْ يَرْمِيَهُ برَسُولِ الله ﷺ فَأَجَازَ وَتَرَكَهُ".
