What is the authenticity of the narration which states that Umar ibn al-Khattab puffed and twirled his mustache when a Bedouin complained to him that their lands, for which they fought in the pre-Islamic era (Jahiliyyah) and embraced Islam upon, were now being withheld from them?
This tradition was narrated by Ibn Sa'd with an authentic chain of transmission whose narrators are trustworthy. It was used as evidence by Ibn Hajar, Al-Shirazi, Ibn Qudamah, Ibn Muflih, Al-Zarqani, and Al-Hattab, and no one has impugned its authenticity.
