حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَی بْنُ أَيُّوبَ وَقُتَيْبَةُ وَابْنُ حُجْرٍ وَاللَّفْظُ لِابْنِ أَيُّوبَ قَالُوا حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَعِيلُ وَهُوَ ابْنُ جَعْفَرٍ أَخْبَرَنِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ دِينَارٍ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ يَقُولُا کُنَّا نُبَايِعُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَی السَّمْعِ وَالطَّاعَةِ يَقُولُ لَنَا فِيمَا اسْتَطَعْتَ
صحیح مسلم · Hadith 4836
It has been narrated on the authority of Abdullah b. 'Umar who said: We used to take oath to the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) that we would listen to and obey his orders. He would tell us (to say in the oath): As far as it lies in my power.
