حَدَّثَنَا حَفْصٌ، عَنِ الشَّيْبَانِيِّ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ
أَنَّ عُمَرَ اسْتَعْمَلَ السَّائِبَ بْنَ الْأَقْرَعِ عَلَى الْمَدَائِنِ، فَبَيْنَمَا هُوَ فِي مَجْلِسِهِ إِذْ أُتِيَ بِتِمْثَالٍ مِنْ صُفْرٍ كَأَنَّهُ رَجُلٌ قَائِلٌ بِيَدَيْهِ هَكَذَا - وَبَسَطَ يَدَيْهِ وَقَبَضَ بَعْضَ أَصَابِعِهِ - فَقَالَ: هَذَا لِي، هَذَا مِمَّا أَفَاءَ اللهُ عَلَيَّ، فَكَتَبَ فِيهِ إِلَى عُمَرَ، فَقَالَ عُمَرُ: أَنْتَ عَامِلٌ مِنْ عُمَّالِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ، فَاجْعَلْهُ فِي بَيْتِ مَالِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ

That ʿUmar appointed al-Sāʾib b. al-Aqraʿ over al-Madāʾin. While he was in his sitting, a brass statue was brought to him, as if it were a man speaking with his hands like this - and he spread his hands and clenched some of his fingers - He said: "This is mine; this is from what Allah has granted me as spoils." So he wrote to ʿUmar about it, and ʿUmar said: "You are an official among the officials of the Muslims, so put it in the treasury (bayt māl) of the Muslims."
