Hadith #35450
حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، أَنَّ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ، كَانَ يَحْمِلُ فِي الْعَامِ الْوَاحِدِ عَلَى أَرْبَعِينَ أَلْفِ بَعِيرٍ يَحْمِلُ الرَّجُلَ إِلَى الشَّامِ عَلَى بَعِيرٍ وَيَحْمِلُ الرَّجُلَيْنِ إِلَى الْعِرَاقِ عَلَى بَعِيرٍ فَجَاءَهُ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْعِرَاقِ فَقَالَ احْمِلْنِي وَسُحَيْمًا . فَقَالَ لَهُ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ نَشَدْتُكَ اللَّهَ أَسُحَيْمٌ زِقٌّ قَالَ لَهُ نَعَمْ .
Yahya told me, on the authority of Malik, on the authority of Yahya bin Saeed, that Omar bin Al-Khattab used to load forty thousand camels in one year. He carries the man to Syria on a camel, and he carries the two men to Iraq on a camel. Then a man from the people of Iraq came to him and said, “Carry me.” And Suhaim. Omar bin Al-Khattab said to him, “I beseech you, by God. Ashaim, Zaq,” and he said to him, “Yes.”
