Anas aytdi: Men Umarning yelkalari orasida, koynagida to'rtta yama ko'rdim. Abu Usmon an-Nahdiy aytdi: Men Umarni charm bilan yamalgan belbog' kiyib yurganini ko'rdim. Abdulloh ibn Omir ibn Rabiah aytdi: Men Umar bilan haj qildim, u na echki junidan va na jundan chodir tikmadi. U ihrom libosining yuqori qismini va charm gilamini butaning ustiga tashlab, o'sha ostida soya izlardi. Abdulloh ibn Iso aytdi: Umarning yuzida yig'idan ikkita qorong'i iz bor edi. Al-Hasan aytdi: Umar o'zi belgilagan kunlik wird (muntazam o'qiladigan qism)dagi bir oyatdan o'tganda yiqilib, bir necha kundan keyin hushiga kelguncha behush bo'lib yotardi. Anas aytdi: Men devor bilan o'ralgan bog'ga kirdim va devor ikkimiz orasida bo'lganida Umar shunday deyayotganini eshitdim: "Umar ibn al-Xattob, mo'minlarning amiri. Barakalla! Barakalla! Allohga qasamki, sen Allohdan qo'rqasan, yo Ibn al-Xattob, yo Alloh seni jazolaydi." Abdulloh ibn Omir ibn Rabiah aytdi: Men Umarning yerdan bir somon olib: "Keni, men shu somon bo'lsam edi. Keni, men hech narsa bo'lmasam edi. Keni, onam meni tug'madik bo'lsa edi", deganini ko'rdim. Abdulloh ibn Umar ibn Hafs aytdi: Umar bo'yniga suvli mashk ortib olgan edi. Unga bu haqda gapirilganda u dedi: "Nafsim meni kibru havo bilan to'ldirib turardi, men uni xor qilmoqchi bo'ldim." Muhammad ibn Sirin aytdi: Umarning qaynonasi (xotinining singlisi, yoki qarindoshi) uning huzuriga kelib, bayt al-moldan biror narsa berishni so'radi. Umar uni rad etib dedi: "Xiyonatkor podsho sifatida Allohga duch kelishimni xohlaysanmi?" So'ng u unga o'z mulkidan o'n ming dirham berdi. An-Nakaiy aytdi: Umar xalifa bo'lib turgan paytida ham savdo qilardi. Anas aytdi: Qurg'oqchilik yili Umarning qorni zaytun moyi yeganidan guruldardi — u o'ziga sariyog' yeyishni man qilgan edi — va u qorniga barmog'i bilan urib dedi: "Xalq yashash vositasiga ega bo'lguncha, bizga boshqa narsa yo'q." Sufyon ibn Uyayna aytdi: Umar ibn al-Xattob dedi: "Menga eng yoqadigan kishi — mening kamchiliklarimni ko'rsatib beradigan kishidir." Aslam aytdi: Men Umar ibn al-Xattobning otning quloqidan ushlab, boshqa qo'li bilan o'z quloqini ushlaganini va otning orqasiga sakrab minganini ko'rdim.
Ibn Umar aytdi: Umar g'azablanganini hech ko'rmaganman, faqat uning huzurida Alloh zikr qilinganda yoki u qo'rqitilganda yoxud uning huzurida biror kishi Qur'ondan oyat o'qiganda, u niyat qilgan ishini to'xtatib qo'yardi.
Bilol Aslamdan so'radi: Umar haqida qanday fikrdasan? U dedi: U odamlarning eng yaxshisi, faqat g'azablanganda uning ishi og'ir bo'ladi.
Bilol dedi: Agar men uning g'azablangan paytida yonida bo'lsam, g'azabi ketguncha unga Qur'on o'qiган bo'lardim.
Al-Ahvas ibn Hakim otasidan rivoyat qilib aytdi: Umarga yog' bilan pishirilgan go'sht keltirildi, u ikkalasini ham yemadi. U dedi: Ikkalasi ham ziravordir.
Yuqoridagi barcha rivoyatlar Ibn Sa'dda keltirilgan.
Anas said: I saw between cUmar’s shoulder-blades, four patches in his shirt. Abu cUthman an-Nahdi said: I saw cUmar wearing a waistwrapper patched with leather. cAbdullah ibn cAmir ibn Rabicah said: I performed the Hajj with cUmar and he did not pitch a tent of goat’s hair nor of wool. He used to throw the upper part of his ihram and his leather mat over a bush and seek shelter underneath it. cAbdullah ibn cIsa said: There were two dark furrows in cUmar’s face from his weeping. Al-Hasan said: cUmar used to pass by an ayah in his wird (daily portion set aside to recite) and he would fall down (in a faint) until he revived after some days. Anas said: I entered a walled garden and heard cUmar saying, while there was a wall between us, <cUmar ibn al-Khattab, Amir al-Muminin. Well done! Well done! By Allah, you will fear Allah, Ibn al-Khattab or Allah will punish you.’ cAbdullah ibn cAmir ibn Rabicah said: I saw ' Umar take up a straw from the ground and say, ‘I wish I was this straw. I wish I was nothing. I wish that my mother had not given birth to me.’ cAbdullah ibn cUmar ibn Hafs said: cUmar carried a skin full of water upon his neck. Someone spoke to him about that and he said, ‘My self was filling me with conceit and I wished to humble it.’ Muhammad ibn Sirin said: An in-faw of cUmar’s came to see him and asked him to give him something from the bait al-mal and cUmar refused him and said, ‘Do you want me to meet Allah as a treacherous King?’ Then he gave him from his own property ten thousand dirhams. An-Nakhaci said: cUmar used to trade while he was khalifah. Anas said: cUmar’s stomach rumbled from eating olive oil the year of the drought - he had forbidden himself clarified butter — and he tapped on his stomach with his finger and said, ‘There is nothing else for us, until the people have the means of living.’ Sufyan ibn cUyaynah said: cUmar ibn al- Khattab said, ‘The person I like most is the one who points out to me my defects.’ Aslam said: I saw cUmar ibn al-Khattab taking hold of the ear of the horse, taking hold of his own ear with the other hand, and leaping up on the back of the horse. Ibn cUmar said: I never saw cUmar become angry, and then Allah was mentioned in his presence or he was made to fear, or a person would recite an ayah from the Qur’an in his presence, but that he stopped short of what he meant to do. Bilal said to Aslam, ‘How do you find "Umar?’ He said, ‘The best of people, except that when he becomes angry it is a mighty matter.’ Bilal said, ‘If I was with him when he became angry, I would recite Qur’an to him until his anger went.’ AI-Ahwas ibn Hakim said, narrating from his father: cUmar was brought meat dressed with clarified butter and he refused to eat the two of them. He said, ‘Both of them are seasonings.’ All of the foregoing traditions are from Ibn Sacd.
