حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي خَالِدٍ، عَنْ قَيْسٍ، قَالَ:، رَأَيْتُ عُمَرَ وَبِيَدِهِ عَسِيبُ نَخْلٍ، وَهُوَ يُجْلِسُ النَّاسَ، يَقُولُ: اسْمَعُوا لِقَوْلِ خَلِيفَةِ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَجَاءَ مَوْلًى لِأَبِي بَكْرٍ يُقَالُ لَهُ: شَدِيدٌ، بِصَحِيفَةٍ فَقَرَأَهَا عَلَى النَّاسِ، فَقَالَ: يَقُولُ أَبُو بَكْرٍ: اسْمَعُوا وَأَطِيعُوا لِمَنْ فِي هَذِهِ الصَّحِيفَةِ، فَوَاللهِ مَا أَلَوْتُكُمْ. قَالَ قَيْسٌ: فَرَأَيْتُ عُمَرَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ (١) .،

It was narrated that Qais said:
I saw `Umar with a leafless palm branch in his hand, and he was telling the people to sit down, saying: Listen to the words of the successor of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). A freed slave of Abu Bakr, whose name was Shadeed, brought the document and read it to the people, He said: Abu Bakr says: Listen to and obey what is in this document, for by Allah I am very sincere towards you, Qais said: And I saw `Umar after that on the minbar.
