وَحَدَّثَنِى عَبْدُ بْنُ حُمَيْدٍ أَخْبَرَنَا جَعْفَرُ بْنُ عَوْنٍ أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عُمَيْسٍ عَنْ قَيْسِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ طَارِقِ بْنِ شِهَابٍ قَالَ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْيَهُودِ إِلَى عُمَرَ فَقَالَ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ آيَةٌ فِى كِتَابِكُمْ تَقْرَءُونَهَا لَوْ عَلَيْنَا نَزَلَتْ مَعْشَرَ الْيَهُودِ لاَتَّخَذْنَا ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمَ عِيدًا. قَالَ وَأَىُّ آيَةٍ قَالَ (الْيَوْمَ أَكْمَلْتُ لَكُمْ دِينَكُمْ وَأَتْمَمْتُ عَلَيْكُمْ نِعْمَتِى وَرَضِيتُ لَكُمُ الإِسْلاَمَ دِينًا) فَقَالَ عُمَرُ إِنِّى لأَعْلَمُ الْيَوْمَ الَّذِى نَزَلَتْ فِيهِ وَالْمَكَانَ الَّذِى نَزَلَتْ فِيهِ نَزَلَتْ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- بِعَرَفَاتٍ فِى يَوْمِ جُمُعَةٍ.

"When a person dies, his works end, except for three: ongoing charity, knowledge that is benefited from, and a righteous child who prays for him."
