Sahih Bukhari 4642

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْيَمَانِ ، أَخْبَرَنَا شُعَيْبٌ ، عَنْ الزُّهْرِيِّ ، قَالَ : أَخْبَرَنِي عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ ، أَنَّ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا ، قَالَ : قَدِمَ عُيَيْنَةُ بْنُ حِصْنِ بْنِ حُذَيْفَةَ ، فَنَزَلَ عَلَى ابْنِ أَخِيهِ الْحُرِّ بْنِ قَيْسٍ ، وَكَانَ مِنَ النَّفَرِ الَّذِينَ يُدْنِيهِمْ عُمَرُ ، وَكَانَ الْقُرَّاءُ أَصْحَابَ مَجَالِسِ عُمَرَ ، وَمُشَاوَرَتِهِ كُهُولًا كَانُوا أَوْ شُبَّانًا ، فَقَالَ عُيَيْنَةُ لِابْنِ أَخِيهِ : يَا ابْنَ أَخِي ، هَلْ لَكَ وَجْهٌ عِنْدَ هَذَا الْأَمِيرِ فَاسْتَأْذِنْ لِي عَلَيْهِ ؟ قَالَ : سَأَسْتَأْذِنُ لَكَ عَلَيْهِ ، قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ : فَاسْتَأْذَنَ الْحُرُّ لِعُيَيْنَةَ فَأَذِنَ لَهُ عُمَرُ ، فَلَمَّا دَخَلَ عَلَيْهِ ، قَالَ : هِي يَا ابْنَ الْخَطَّابِ ، فَوَاللَّهِ مَا تُعْطِينَا الْجَزْلَ ، وَلَا تَحْكُمُ بَيْنَنَا بِالْعَدْلِ ، فَغَضِبَ عُمَرُ ، حَتَّى هَمَّ أَنْ يُوقِعَ بِهِ ، فَقَالَ لَهُ الْحُرُّ : يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ، إِنَّ اللَّهَ تَعَالَى ، قَالَ لِنَبِيِّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : خُذِ الْعَفْوَ وَأْمُرْ بِالْعُرْفِ وَأَعْرِضْ عَنِ الْجَاهِلِينَ سورة الأعراف آية 199 ، وَإِنَّ هَذَا مِنَ الْجَاهِلِينَ ، وَاللَّهِ مَا جَاوَزَهَا عُمَرُ حِينَ تَلَاهَا عَلَيْهِ ، وَكَانَ وَقَّافًا عِنْدَ كِتَابِ اللَّهِ .

Narrated Ibn `Abbas: 'Uyaina bin Hisn bin Hudhaifa came and stayed with his nephew Al-Hurr bin Qais who was one of those whom `Umar used to keep near him, as the Qurra' (learned men knowing Qur'an by heart) were the people of `Umar's meetings and his advisors whether they were old or young. 'Uyaina said to his nephew, O son of my brother! You have an approach to this chief, so get for me the permission to see him. Al-Hurr said, I will get the permission for you to see him. So Al-Hurr asked the permission for 'Uyaina and `Umar admitted him. When 'Uyaina entered upon him, he said, Beware! O the son of Al-Khattab! By Allah, you neither give us sufficient provision nor judge among us with justice. Thereupon `Umar became so furious that he intended to harm him, but Al-Hurr said, O chief of the Believers! Allah said to His Prophet: Hold to forgiveness; command what is right; and leave (don't punish) the foolish. (7.199) and this (i.e. 'Uyaina) is one of the foolish. By Allah, `Umar did not overlook that Verse when Al-Hurr recited it before him; he observed (the orders of) Allah's Book strictly.
