anyone. So I went to the gate and said: "Has a man passed by you wearing Yemeni patterned garments?" They said: "We have seen no one." They used to narrate that it was Elias.
18418 - From Abu Ishaq al-Sabi'i, who said: A man came to 'Umar ibn al-Khattab, may Allah be pleased with him, and said: "O Commander of the Faithful, I have committed murder, so is there any repentance for me?" He read to him: "Ha Mim. The revelation of the Book is from Allah, the Exalted in Might, the All-Knowing. The Forgiver of sin, the Accepter of repentance," and he said: "Do [good] deeds and do not despair."

I entered an orchard to pray two rak'ahs, and I began [reading] "Ha Mim" (Ghafir/al-Mu'min) until I reached: "There is no deity except Him; to Him is the destination." Suddenly, there was a man behind me on a grey mule, wearing Yemeni patterned garments. He said: "When you say: 'Accepter of repentance,' say: 'O Accepter of repentance, accept my repentance.' And when you say: 'Severe in punishment,' say: 'O Severe in punishment, do not punish me.'"

18423 - By way of Abu Qubayl, that he heard 'Abdullah ibn 'Umar, may Allah be pleased with them both, saying: "The bearers of the Throne are eight; the distance between the outer corner of the eye of one of them and the inner corner is a journey of five hundred years."
