حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو سَعِيدٍ مَوْلَى بَنِي هَاشِمٍ حَدَّثَنَا الْهَيْثَمُ بْنُ رَافِعٍ الطَّاطَرِيُّ بَصْرِيٌّ
أَنَّ عُمَرَ وَهُوَ يَوْمَئِذٍ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ، خَرَجَ إِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ فَرَأَى طَعَامًا مَنْثُورًا فَقَالَ: مَا هَذَا الطَّعَامُ ؟ فَقَالُوا: طَعَامٌ جُلِبَ إِلَيْنَا قَالَ: بَارَكَ اللهُ فِيهِ، وَفِيمَنْ جَلَبَهُ، قِيلَ: يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ، فَإِنَّهُ قَدِ احْتُكِرَ، قَالَ: وَمَنِ احْتَكَرَهُ ؟ قَالُوا: فَرُّوخُ مَوْلَى عُثْمَانَ، وَفُلَانٌ مَوْلَى عُمَرَ، فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَيْهِمَا، فَدَعَاهُمَا، فَقَالَ: مَا حَمَلَكُمَا عَلَى احْتِكَارِ طَعَامِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ ؟ قَالَا: يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ، نَشْتَرِي بِأَمْوَالِنَا وَنَبِيعُ، فَقَالَ عُمَرُ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ: مَنِ احْتَكَرَ عَلَى الْمُسْلِمِينَ طَعَامَهُمْ ضَرَبَهُ اللهُ بِالْإِفْلَاسِ ( أَوْ بِجُذَامٍ ) فَقَالَ فَرُّوخُ عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ: يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ، أُعَاهِدُ اللهَ وَأُعَاهِدُكَ أَنْ لَا أَعُودَ فِي طَعَامٍ أَبَدًا، وَأَمَّا مَوْلَى عُمَرَ فَقَالَ: إِنَّمَا نَشْتَرِي بِأَمْوَالِنَا وَنَبِيعُ.

✧ Umar, who was then Commander of the Believers, went out to the mosque and saw food scattered about. He said: What is this food? They said: Food brought to us. He said: May God bless it and the one who brought it. It was said: O Commander of the Believers, it has been hoarded. He said: Who hoarded it? They said: Farrūkh, the client of Uthman, and so-and-so, the client of Umar. So he sent for them and summoned them. He said: What led you to hoard the food of the Muslims? They said: O Commander of the Believers, we buy with our own wealth and sell. Umar said: I heard the Messenger of God ﷺ say: Whoever hoards food against the Muslims, God will strike him with bankruptcy (or with leprosy). At that Farrūkh said: O Commander of the Believers, I pledge to God and to you that I will never again deal in food ever. As for the client of Umar, he said: We only buy with our own wealth and sell.
