حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى عَنْ سُفْيَانَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ دِينَارٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَمَّرَ أُسَامَةَ عَلَى قَوْمٍ فَطَعَنَ النَّاسُ فِي إِمَارَتِهِ فَقَالَ إِنْ تَطْعَنُوا فِي إِمَارَتِهِ فَقَدْ طَعَنْتُمْ فِي إِمَارَةِ أَبِيهِ وَايْمُ اللَّهِ إِنْ كَانَ لَخَلِيقًا لِلْإِمَارَةِ وَإِنْ كَانَ لَمِنْ أَحَبِّ النَّاسِ إِلَيَّ وَإِنَّ ابْنَهُ هَذَا لَأَحَبُّ النَّاسِ إِلَيَّ بَعْدَهُ
مسند امام احمد بن حنبل · Hadith 4701
'Abdullah ton Dinaar said I heard 'Abdullah ton 'Umar (say) that the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) appointed Usaamah as commander over some people, and the people objected to his being in command. He said: "If you object to his being in command, you also objected to his father's being in command By Allah, he was fit to command and he was one of the dearest of people to me, and this son of his is the dearest of people to me after him."
