Hadith 32

-Kamil’ – They said, ‘Then Umar said, ‘Call Abu Talha Al-Ansari to me’. They called him to him. He said, ‘O Abu Talha! Allah-saww has Cherished al Islam with you. When you return from my grave, then chose fifty men from the Helpers to carry their swords and take these person with the accomplishing the matter and hastening it, and gather them in a house and stand with your companions at the door of the house for them to consult and choose one of them. If five are concordant and one refuses, then chop off his neck with the sword; and if four are concordant and two refuse, then strike off both their necks; and if three are concordant and three oppose, then look at the three in which is Abful Rahman Bin Awf, so if the other three come up against them then strike off their necks’’.
