Hadith 34:147
Yahya ibn Ya'la al-Aslami narrated to us, from Abdullah ibn al-Mu'ammal, from Abu al-Zubayr, from Jabir, who said: The beginning of Umar's Islam was—Umar said: My sister went into labor, so I was taken out of the house. I entered into the coverings of the Kaaba on a cold night. He said: Then the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, came and entered the Hijr while wearing his sandals. He prayed as much as Allah willed, then he turned away. I heard something the likes of which I had never heard before. I went out and followed him. He said: "Who is this?" I said: "Umar." He said: "O Umar, will you not leave me alone by night or by day?" I feared that he might supplicate against me, so I said: "I bear witness that there is no god but Allah and that you are the Messenger of Allah." He said: "O Umar, keep it hidden." I said: "By the One who sent you with the truth, I shall surely proclaim it just as I proclaimed polytheism."
حدثنا يحيى بن يعلى الأسلمي عن عبد الله بن المؤمل عن أبي الزبير عن جابر قال كان أول إسلام عمر قال قال عمر قال ضرب أختي المخاض قال فأخرجت من البيت فدخلت في أستار الكعبة في ليلة قارة قال فجاء النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم فدخل الحجر وعليه نعلاه قال فصلى ما شاء الله ثم انصرف فسمعت شيئا لم أسمع مثله فخرجت فاتبعته فقال من هذا فقلت عمر قال يا عمر ما تدعني ليلا ولا نهارا قال فخشيت أن يدعو علي فقلت أشهد أن لا إله إلا الله وأنك رسول الله فقال يا عمر استره قال فقلت والذي بعثك بالحق لأعلننه كما أعلنت الشرك
