Show the chain

أَخْبَرَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ أَبُو عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ الْمَخْزُومِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنِ السَّائِبِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ عَنْ حُوَيْطِبِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْعُزَّى قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ السَّعْدِيِّ

أَنَّهُ قَدِمَ عَلَى عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ ؓ مِنَ الشَّامِ فَقَالَ أَلَمْ أُخْبَرْ أَنَّكَ تَعْمَلُ عَلَى عَمَلٍ مِنْ أَعْمَالِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ فَتُعْطَى عَلَيْهِ عُمَالَةً فَلاَ تَقْبَلُهَا قَالَ أَجَلْ إِنَّ لِي أَفْرَاسًا وَأَعْبُدًا وَأَنَا بِخَيْرٍ وَأُرِيدُ أَنْ يَكُونَ عَمَلِي صَدَقَةً عَلَى الْمُسْلِمِينَ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ ؓ إِنِّي أَرَدْتُ الَّذِي أَرَدْتَ وَكَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يُعْطِينِي الْمَالَ فَأَقُولُ أَعْطِهِ مَنْ هُوَ أَفْقَرُ إِلَيْهِ مِنِّي وَإِنَّهُ أَعْطَانِي مَرَّةً مَالاً فَقُلْتُ لَهُ أَعْطِهِ مَنْ هُوَ أَحْوَجُ إِلَيْهِ مِنِّي فَقَالَ مَا آتَاكَ اللَّهُ ﷻ مِنْ هَذَا الْمَالِ مِنْ غَيْرِ مَسْأَلَةٍ وَلاَ إِشْرَافٍ فَخُذْهُ فَتَمَوَّلْهُ أَوْ تَصَدَّقْ بِهِ وَمَا لاَ فَلاَ تُتْبِعْهُ نَفْسَكَ

"I heard that you have been doing some work for the Muslims, and you are given payment for that, but you do not accept it. "I said: "Yes (that is so); I have horses and slaves and am well-off, and I wanted my work to be an act of charity toward the Muslims." 'Umar, may Allah be pleased with him, said: "I wanted the same thing as you. The Prophet used to give me money, and I would say: 'Give it to someone who is more in need of it than I am. Once he gave me money and I said: 'Give it to someone who us more in need of it that I am, and he said: 'Whatever Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, gives you of this wealth without you asking for it or hoping or it, take it and keep it, or give it in charity, and whatever. He does not give you then do not hope for it or wish for it."'

    رواه الزهري ويزيد بن خصيفة عن السائب بن يزيد فأما الزهري فجود إسناده رواه عن السائب بن يزيد عن حويطب بن عبد العزى عن عبد الله بن السعدي عن عمر رواه عن الزهري كذلك شعيب بن أبي حمزة وعمرو بن الحارث ويونس بن يزيد وعقيل وسفيان بن عيينة وبينه معمر بن راشد واختلف عن معمر فرواه عنه مروان الفزاري ولم يقم إسناده وتابعه عبد الرزاق عن معمر فقالا عن الزهري عن السائب بن يزيد أن عمر قال لابن السعدي ولم يذكرا فيه حويطبا وكذلك قال ابن المبارك عن معمر إلا أنه قال عن السائب عن عبد الله بن السعدي عن عمر ولم يذكر حويطبا ورواه الواقدي عن الزهري عن السائب عن حويطب عن عمر ولم يذكر ابن السعدي ورواه معاوية بن يحيى الصدفي عن الزهري عن سعيد بن المسيب عن عمر ووهم فيه وهما قبيحا وأما يزيد بن خصيفة فرواه عن السائب بن يزيد أن عمر قال لابن السعدي ولم يذكر حويطبا أيضا ورواه بكير بن الأشج عن بسر بن سعيد فقال عن ابن السعدي عن عمر قال ذلك الليث بن سعد عن بكير وخالفه ابن عجلان واختلف عنه فقال الثوري عن ابن عجلان عن بكير عن ابن السعدي عن عمر ولم يذكر بسر بن سعيد وخالفه يحيى القطان فرواه عن ابن عجلان عن يعقوب بن الأشج أخي بكير عن بسر بن سعيد عن عمر ولم يذكر ابن السعدي وروي عن قبيصة بن ذؤيب وعن أبي الزبير المكي عن ابن السعدي عن عمر وأحسنها إسنادا حديث شعيب بن أبي حمزة ومن تابعه عن الزهري عن السائب عن حويطب بن عبد العزى عن ابن السعدي عن عمر حدثنا أبو عمر القاضي محمد بن يوسف والقاسم بن إسماعيل المحاملي قالا ثنا محمد بن أحمد بن الجنيد ثنا أبو عاصم عن سفيان عن محمد بن عجلان عن بكير بن عبد الله عن عبد الله بن السعدي عن عمر قال قال النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم ما أتاك الله من هذا المال غير سائله ولا مشرفه فخذه

    machine translationAl-Zuhrī and Yazīd b. Khuṣayfah narrated it from al-Sāʾib b. Yazīd. As for al-Zuhrī, he gave it a sound chain: he narrated from al-Sāʾib b. Yazīd, from Ḥuwayṭib b. ʿAbd al-ʿUzzā, from ʿAbdullāh b. al-Saʿdī, from ʿUmar. Shuʿayb b. Abī Ḥamzah, ʿAmr b. al-Ḥārith, Yūnus b. Yazīd, ʿUqayl and Sufyān b. ʿUyaynah narrated it from al-Zuhrī in the same way, and Maʿmar b. Rāshid made it clear. There is disagreement about Maʿmar: Marwān al-Fazārī narrated it from him without establishing the chain, and ʿAbd al-Razzāq followed him from Maʿmar. Both said, from al-Zuhrī, from al-Sāʾib b. Yazīd, that ʿUmar said to Ibn al-Saʿdī, and they did not mention Ḥuwayṭib in it. Ibn al-Mubārak likewise said from Maʿmar, except that he said, from al-Sāʾib, from ʿAbdullāh b. al-Saʿdī, from ʿUmar, and he did not mention Ḥuwayṭib. Al-Wāqidī narrated it from al-Zuhrī, from al-Sāʾib, from Ḥuwayṭib, from ʿUmar, and did not mention Ibn al-Saʿdī. Muʿāwiyah b. Yaḥyā al-Ṣadafī narrated it from al-Zuhrī, from Saʿīd b. al-Musayyab, from ʿUmar, and he erred in it with an ugly error. As for Yazīd b. Khuṣayfah, he narrated from al-Sāʾib b. Yazīd that ʿUmar said to Ibn al-Saʿdī, and he also did not mention Ḥuwayṭib. Bukayr b. al-Ashajj narrated it from Busr b. Saʿīd, saying from Ibn al-Saʿdī, from ʿUmar; al-Layth b. Saʿd said that from Bukayr. Ibn ʿAjlān differed from him, and there is disagreement about him. Al-Thawrī said from Ibn ʿAjlān, from Bukayr, from Ibn al-Saʿdī, from ʿUmar, and did not mention Busr b. Saʿīd. Yaḥyā al-Qaṭṭān differed from him and narrated it from Ibn ʿAjlān, from Yaʿqūb b. al-Ashajj, the brother of Bukayr, from Busr b. Saʿīd, from ʿUmar, and did not mention Ibn al-Saʿdī. It is also reported from Qabīṣah b. Dhuʾayb and from Abū al-Zubayr al-Makkī, from Ibn al-Saʿdī, from ʿUmar. The best of them in chain is the hadith of Shuʿayb b. Abī Ḥamzah and those who followed him, from al-Zuhrī, from al-Sāʾib, from Ḥuwayṭib b. ʿAbd al-ʿUzzā, from Ibn al-Saʿdī, from ʿUmar. Abū ʿUmar the judge Muḥammad b. Yūsuf and al-Qāsim b. Ismāʿīl al-Maḥāmilī narrated to us, both saying: Muḥammad b. Aḥmad b. al-Junayd narrated to us, Abū ʿĀṣim narrated to us, from Sufyān, from Muḥammad b. ʿAjlān, from Bukayr b. ʿAbdullāh, from ʿAbdullāh b. al-Saʿdī, from ʿUmar, who said: The Prophet ﷺ said: "Whatever of this wealth Allah gives you without your asking for it or craving it, take it."

    وهذا أيضا خطأ إنما هو عن ابن الساعدي عن عمر رواه الزهري عن السائب بن يزيد عن حويطب بن عبد العزي عن عبد الله بن السعدي عن عمر عن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قال أبي وهذا الصحيح ويقال ابن السعدي والساعدي

    machine translationThis too is a mistake; it is only from Ibn al-Sāʿidī, from ʿUmar. Al-Zuhrī narrated it from al-Sāʾib b. Yazīd, from Ḥuwayṭib b. ʿAbd al-ʿUzzā, from ʿAbdullāh b. al-Saʿdī, from ʿUmar, from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. My father said: This is the correct one. It is said "Ibn al-Saʿdī" and "al-Sāʿidī".
