Volume 8, Book 78, Number 628:
Narrated 'Abdullah bin Hisham:
We were with the Prophet and he was holding the hand of 'Umar bin Al-Khattab. 'Umar said to
Him, "O Allah's Apostle! You are dearer to me than everything except my own self." The Prophet said,
"No, by Him in Whose Hand my soul is, (you will not have complete faith) till I am dearer to you
than your own self." Then 'Umar said to him, "However, now, by Allah, you are dearer to me than my
own self." The Prophet said, "Now, O 'Umar, (now you are a believer)."
