Sunan Ibn Majah 2970 (Book 25, Hadith 89) #32324
Following the Sunnah of Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ)

SUMMARY: Umar bin Khattab encouraged a newly converted Muslim to follow the Sunnah of Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ).

It was narrated that 'Abdah bin Abu Lubabah said: "I heard Abu Wa’il, Shaqiq bin Salamah, say: 'I heard Subai bin Ma’bad say: "I was a Christian man, then I became Muslim and I entered Ihram for Hajj and 'Umrah. Salman bin Rabi’ah and Zaid bin Suhan heard me when I was entering Ihram for them both together at Qadisiyyah. They said: 'This man is more lost than his camel!’ It was as if they had heaped a mountain on me with their words. I went to 'Umar bin Khattab and told him about that. He turned to them and reproached them, then he turned to me and said: 'You have been guided to the Sunnah of the Prophet ﷺ, you have been guided to the Sunnah of the Prophet ﷺ.’" Another chain reports a similar narration.
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَهِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ، قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدَةَ بْنِ أَبِي لُبَابَةَ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا وَائِلٍ، شَقِيقَ بْنَ سَلَمَةَ يَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ الصُّبَىَّ بْنَ مَعْبَدٍ، يَقُولُ كُنْتُ رَجُلاً نَصْرَانِيًّا فَأَسْلَمْتُ فَأَهْلَلْتُ بِالْحَجِّ وَالْعُمْرَةِ فَسَمِعَنِي سَلْمَانُ بْنُ رَبِيعَةَ وَزَيْدُ بْنُ صُوحَانَ وَأَنَا أُهِلُّ بِهِمَا جَمِيعًا بِالْقَادِسِيَّةِ فَقَالاَ لَهَذَا أَضَلُّ مِنْ بَعِيرِهِ فَكَأَنَّمَا حَمَلاَ عَلَىَّ جَبَلاً بِكَلِمَتِهِمَا فَقَدِمْتُ عَلَى عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لَهُ فَأَقْبَلَ عَلَيْهِمَا فَلاَمَهُمَا ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ عَلَىَّ فَقَالَ هُدِيتَ لِسُنَّةِ النَّبِيِّ ـ ﷺ ـ هُدِيتَ لِسُنَّةِ النَّبِيِّ ـ ﷺ ـ ‏.‏ قَالَ هِشَامٌ فِي حَدِيثِهِ قَالَ شَقِيقٌ: فَكَثِيرًا مَا ذَهَبْتُ أَنَا وَمَسْرُوقٌ نَسْأَلُهُ عَنْهُ ‏.‏ حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، وَأَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ وَخَالِي يَعْلَى قَالُوا حَدَّثَنَا الأَعْمَشُ، عَنْ شَقِيقٍ، عَنِ الصُّبَىِّ بْنِ مَعْبَدٍ، قَالَ كُنْتُ حَدِيثَ عَهْدٍ بِنَصْرَانِيَّةٍ فَأَسْلَمْتُ فَلَمْ آلُ أَنْ أَجْتَهِدَ، فَأَهْلَلْتُ بِالْحَجِّ وَالْعُمْرَةِ ‏.‏ فَذَكَرَ نَحْوَهُ
