346 — ‘Abd Allāh narrated to us: ‘Abd al-A‘lā ibn Hammād narrated to me: Wuhayb narrated to us: Abū Jahdam Mūsā ibn Sālim narrated to us, from Abū Ja‘far:
When ‘Umar ibn al-Khattāb had been washed, shrouded, placed on his bier, and covered with a cloth, ‘Alī said, “There is no one on earth whose record of deeds I would rather meet Allah, the Almighty and Majestic, with than this man lying beneath the cloth.”
٣٤٦ - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ الْأَعْلَى بْنُ حَمَّادٍ قثنا وُهَيْبٌ قثنا أَبُو جَهْضَمٍ مُوسَى بْنُ سَالِمٍ، عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ، أَنَّ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ لَمَّا غُسِّلَ وَكُفِّنَ وَوُضِعَ عَلَى سَرِيرِهِ، وَسُجِّيَ عَلَيْهِ بِثَوْبٍ، قَالَ عَلِيٌّ: مَا عَلَى الْأَرْضِ أَحَدٌ أَحَبَّ إِلَيَّ أَنْ أَلْقَى اللَّهَ ﷿ بِمَا فِي صَحِيفَتِهِ مِنْ هَذَا الْمُسَجَّى.
