أَخْبَرَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ نَصْرٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ عَنْ سُفْيَانَ بْنِ دِينَارٍ عَنْ مُصْعَبِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ قَالَ
كَانَ لِسَعْدٍ كُرُومٌ وَأَعْنَابٌ كَثِيرَةٌ وَكَانَ لَهُ فِيهَا أَمِينٌ فَحَمَلْتُ عِنَبًا كَثِيرًا فَكَتَبَ إِلَيْهِ إِنِّي أَخَافُ عَلَى الْأَعْنَابِ الضَّيْعَةَ فَإِنْ رَأَيْتَ أَنْ أَعْصُرَهُ عَصَرْتُهُ فَكَتَبَ إِلَيْهِ سَعْدٌ إِذَا «جَاءَ كِتَابِي هَذَا فَاعْتَزِلْ ضَيْعَتِي فَوَاللهِ لَا أَئْتَمِنُكَ عَلَى شَيْءٍ بَعْدَهُ أَبَدًا فَعَزَلَهُ عَنْ ضَيْعَتِهِ»

✧ Sa'd had vineyards and many grapevines, and he had a caretaker over them. The caretaker harvested a large amount of grapes and wrote to him, “I fear the grapes will go to waste. If you think I should press them, I will press them.” Sa'd wrote back to him, “When this letter of mine reaches you, leave my estate, for by Allah, I will never entrust you with anything after this.” So he dismissed him from his estate.”
