حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَی بْنُ بِشْرٍ حَدَّثَنَا رَوْحٌ حَدَّثَنَا عَوْفٌ عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ قُرَّةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو بُرْدَةَ بْنُ أَبِي مُوسَی الْأَشْعَرِيِّ قَالَ قَالَ لِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ هَلْ تَدْرِي مَا قَالَ أَبِي لِأَبِيکَ قَالَ قُلْتُ لَا قَالَ فَإِنَّ أَبِي قَالَ لِأَبِيکَ يَا أَبَا مُوسَی هَلْ يَسُرُّکَ إِسْلَامُنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهِجْرَتُنَا مَعَهُ وَجِهَادُنَا مَعَهُ وَعَمَلُنَا کُلُّهُ مَعَهُ بَرَدَ لَنَا وَأَنَّ کُلَّ عَمَلٍ عَمِلْنَاهُ بَعْدَهُ نَجَوْنَا مِنْهُ کَفَافًا رَأْسًا بِرَأْسٍ فَقَالَ أَبِي لَا وَاللَّهِ قَدْ جَاهَدْنَا بَعْدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَصَلَّيْنَا وَصُمْنَا وَعَمِلْنَا خَيْرًا کَثِيرًا وَأَسْلَمَ عَلَی أَيْدِينَا بَشَرٌ کَثِيرٌ وَإِنَّا لَنَرْجُو ذَلِکَ فَقَالَ أَبِي لَکِنِّي أَنَا وَالَّذِي نَفْسُ عُمَرَ بِيَدِهِ لَوَدِدْتُ أَنَّ ذَلِکَ بَرَدَ لَنَا وَأَنَّ کُلَّ شَيْئٍ عَمِلْنَاهُ بَعْدُ نَجَوْنَا مِنْهُ کَفَافًا رَأْسًا بِرَأْسٍ فَقُلْتُ إِنَّ أَبَاکَ وَاللَّهِ خَيْرٌ مِنْ أَبِي
صحیح بخاری · Hadith 3916
Narrated Abu `Uthman: I heard that Ibn `Umar used to become angry if someone mentioned that he had migrated before his father (`Umar), and he used to say, " `Umar and I came to Allah's Apostle and found him having his midday rest, so we returned home. Then `Umar sent me again (to the Prophet ) and said, 'Go and see whether he is awake.' I went to him and entered his place and gave him the pledge of allegiance. Then I went back to `Umar and informed him that the Prophet was awake. So we both went, running slowly, and when `Umar entered his place, he gave him the pledge of allegiance and thereafter I too gave him the pledge of allegiance."
