حديث عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ رضي الله عنها، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ: أُرِيتُ فِي الْمَنَامِ أَنِّي أَنْزِعُ بِدَلْوٍ بَكْرَةٍ عَلَى قَلِيبِ فَجَاءَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ، فَنَزَعَ ذَنُوبًا أَوْ ذَنُوبَيْنِ نَزْعًا ضَعِيفًا، ⦗١٢٨⦘ واللهُ يَغْفِرُ لَهُ، ثُمَّ جَاءَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الخَطَّابِ فَاسْتَحَالَتْ غَرْبًا، فَلَمْ أَرَ عَبْقَرِيًّا يَفْرِي فَرِيَّهُ، حَتَّى رَوِيَ النَّاسُ وَضَرَبُوا بِعَطَنٍ.
`Abdullah bin `Umar Narrated from:
The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said, “In a dream I saw myself drawing water from a well with a bucket. Abû Bakr came and drew a bucket or two (of water) and there was weakness in his drawing. May Allâh forgive him. Then ‘Umar bin Al-Khattâb came and the bucket turned into a very large one in his hands. I had never seen such a mighty person as he in doing such hard work till all the people drank to their satisfaction and watered their camels that knelt down there.” ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 31, Vol. 5)
