Abu Mousa Ashari reported that he went to Umar Bin AlKhattab and greeted him by saying: AlSalamu-Alaikum; here is Abdullah Bin Qais; but he did not permit him to get in. He Abu Mousa Ashari again greeted him with AlSalamu-Alaikum and said: Here is Abu Mousa; but he Hadrat Umar did not permit him to get in. He again said: AlSalam-u-Alaikum; and said here is Ashari; then receiving no response he came back. He Hadrat Umar said: Bring him back to me; bring him back to me So he went there in the presence of Hadrat Umar and he said to him: Abu Mousa; what made you go back; while we were busy in some work? He said: I heard Allah Messenger may. ﷺ as saying: Permission should be sought thrice. And if you are permitted; then get in ; otherwise go back. He said: Bring witness to this fact; otherwise I shall do this and that; i. e. I shall punish you. Abu Mousa went away and Umar said to him on his departure : It he Abu Mousa finds a witness he should meet him by the side of the pulpit in the evening and it he does not find a witness you would not find him there. When it was evening he Hadrat Umar found him Abu Mousa there. He Hadrat Umar said: Abu Mousa; have you been able to find a witness to what you have said? He said: Yes. Here is Ubay Bin Kaab whereupon he Hadrat Umar said: Yes; he is an authentic witness. He Hadrat Umar said: Abu Tufail the kunya of Ubay Bin Kaab ; what does he Abu Mousa say? Thereupon he said: Ibn AlKhattab; I heard Allah Messenger ﷺ as saying so. Do not prove to be a hard task-master for the Companions of Allah Messenger ﷺ ; whereupon he Hadrat Umar said: Hallowed be Allah. I had heard something in this connection ; but I wished it to be established as an undeniable fact.
