Hadith 29:130
Abu Mu'awiyah narrated to us, from al-A'mash, from Qays ibn Muslim, from Tariq ibn Shihab, who said: When Umar arrived in al-Sham, the armies came to him while he was wearing an izar (lower garment), two khuffs (leather socks), and a turban, and he was holding the head of his camel, wading through the water. They said to him, "O Commander of the Faithful, the armies and the patricians (batariqa) of al-Sham are coming to meet you, and you are in this state!" Umar said, "We are a people whom Allah has honored with Islam, so we will never seek honor in anything else."
حدثنا أبو معاوية عن الأعمش عن قيس بن مسلم عن طارق بن شهاب قال لما قدم عمر الشام أتته الجنود وعليه إزار وخفان وعمامة وأخذ برأس بعيره يخوض الماء فقالوا له يا أمير المؤمنين تلقاك الجنود وبطارقة الشام وأنت على هذا الحال قال فقال عمر إنا قوم أعزنا الله بالإسلام فلن نتلمس العز بغيره
