عَبْدُ اللهِ «إِنَّ إِسْلَامَ عُمَرَ كَانَ فَتْحًا وَإِنَّ هِجْرَتَهُ كَانَتْ نَصْرًا وَإِنَّ إِمَارَتَهُ كَانَتْ رَحْمَةً وَاللهِ مَا اسْتَطَعْنَا أَنْ نُصَلِّيَ عِنْدَ الْكَعْبَةِ ظَاهِرِينَ حَتَّى أَسْلَمَ عُمَرُ»

[Machine] Abdullah said, "If the Islam of Umar was a conquest and his leadership was a mercy, then by Allah, we were not able to pray in the house until Umar became Muslim. So when Umar converted to Islam, he welcomed them and allowed us to pray."

عَبْدُ اللهِ «إِنْ كَانَ إِسْلَامُ عُمَرَ لَفَتْحًا وَإِمَارَتُهُ لَرَحَمَةً وَاللهِ مَا اسْتَطَعْنَا أَنْ نُصَلِّيَ بِالْبَيْتِ حَتَّى أَسْلَمَ عُمَرُ فَلَمَّا أَسْلَمَ عُمَرُ قَابَلَهُمْ حَتَّى دَعَوْنَا فَصَلَّيْنَا»

"عَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ: إِنَّ إسْلامَ عُمَر كَانَ عِزّا وإِنْ هجْرَتُه كَانَتْ فَتْحًا أَوْ نَصْرًا وَإمَارَتَهُ كَانَتْ رَحْمَةً، واللهِ ما اسْتَطَعْنَا أَنْ نُصَلِّىَ حَوْلَ الْبَيْتِ ظَاهِرين حَتَّى أَسْلَمَ عُمَرُ، فَلَمَّا أَسلَمَ قَاتَلَهُمْ حَتَّى صَليْنَا وإنِّى لأحْسِبُ بَيْنَ عَيْنى عُمَرَ مَلكًا يُسَدِّدُهُ، وإِنِّى لأحْسبُ الشَّيطانَ يِفرْقه وإِذَا ذُكِرَ الصَّالحُونَ فحيى (*) أهَلًا بِعُمَرَ".
