Musnad `Umar b. al-Khattab (ra)
The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا دُجَيْنٌ أَبُو الْغُصْنِ، بَصْرِيٌّ قَالَ قَدِمْتُ الْمَدِينَةَ فَلَقِيتُ أَسْلَمَ مَوْلَى عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ فَقُلْتُ حَدِّثْنِي عَنْ عُمَرَ فَقَالَ لَا أَسْتَطِيعُ أَخَافُ أَنْ أَزِيدَ أَوْ أَنْقُصَ كُنَّا إِذَا قُلْنَا لِعُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ حَدِّثْنَا عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ أَخَافُ أَنْ أَزِيدَ حَرْفًا أَوْ أَنْقُصَ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ مَنْ كَذَبَ عَلَيَّ فَهُوَ فِي النَّارِ.
Dujain Abul-Ghusn, who was from Basrah, said: I came to Madinah and met Aslam, the freed slave of `Umar bin al-Khattab. I said. Tell me(a report)from `Umar. He said: I cannot, I am afraid that I will add or subtract something. If we said to ‘Umar, Tell us something from the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), he would say: I am afraid that I may add or subtract a letter. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Whoever tells a lie about me will be in Hell.`
