The refutation of the claim of those who say, "All the legal decisions and verdicts given by the Prophet ﷺ were apparent (i.e., known to all people)." And the fact that some of the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ did not witness certain deeds or did not hear certain sayings of the Prophet ﷺ and other Islāmic matters.

7353. Narrated 'Ubaid bin 'Umar: Abū Mūsā asked permission to enter upon 'Umar, but seeing that he was busy, he went away. 'Umar then said, "Didn't I hear the voice of 'Abdullāh bin Qais (i.e., Abū Mūsā)? Allow him to come in." He was called in and 'Umar said to him, "What made you do what you did?" He replied, "We have been instructed thus by the Prophet ﷺ(1)." 'Umar said, "Bring proof (witness) for this, otherwise I will do such and such to you." Then 'Abdullāh bin Qais went to a gathering of the Anṣār (looking for witness) who then said, "None but the youngest of us will give the witness for it." So Abū Sa'īd Al-Khudrī got up and said, "We used to be instructed thus (by the Prophet ﷺ)." 'Umar said, "This order of the Prophet ﷺ remained hidden from me. Business in the market kept me busy."

7353 - حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، حَدَّثَنِي عَطَاءٌ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ عُمَيْرٍ، قَالَ: اسْتَأْذَنَ أَبُو مُوسَى عَلَى عُمَرَ فَكَأَنَّهُ وَجَدَهُ مَشْغُولًا فَرَجَعَ، فَقَالَ عُمَرُ: أَلَمْ أَسْمَعْ صَوْتَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ، ائْذَنُوا لَهُ، فَدُعِيَ لَهُ، فَقَالَ: مَا حَمَلَكَ عَلَى مَا صَنَعْتَ؟ فَقَالَ: «إِنَّا كُنَّا نُؤْمَرُ بِهَذَا»، قَالَ: فَأْتِنِي عَلَى هَذَا بِبَيِّنَةٍ أَوْ لَأَفْعَلَنَّ بِكَ، فَانْطَلَقَ إِلَى مَجْلِسٍ مِنَ الأَنْصَارِ، فَقَالُوا: لاَ يَشْهَدُ إِلَّا أَصَاغِرُنَا، فَقَامَ أَبُو سَعِيدٍ الخُدْرِيُّ فَقَالَ: «قَدْ كُنَّا نُؤْمَرُ بِهَذَا»، فَقَالَ عُمَرُ خَفِيَ عَلَيَّ هَذَا مِنْ أَمْرِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، أَلْهَانِي الصَّفْقُ بِالأَسْوَاقِ
