أَخْبَرَنَا كَثِيرُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ عَنِ الزُّبَيْدِيِّ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنِ السَّائِبِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ أَنَّ حُوَيْطِبَ بْنَ عَبْدِ الْعُزَّى أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ السَّعْدِيِّ أَخْبَرَهُ

أَنَّهُ قَدِمَ عَلَى عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ فِي خِلاَفَتِهِ فَقَالَ لَهُ عُمَرُ أَلَمْ أُحَدَّثْ أَنَّكَ تَلِي مِنْ أَعْمَالِ النَّاسِ أَعْمَالاً فَإِذَا أُعْطِيتَ الْعُمَالَةَ رَدَدْتَهَا فَقُلْتُ بَلَى فَقَالَ عُمَرُ ؓ فَمَا تُرِيدُ إِلَى ذَلِكَ فَقُلْتُ لِي أَفْرَاسٌ وَأَعْبُدٌ وَأَنَا بِخَيْرٍ وَأُرِيدُ أَنْ يَكُونَ عَمَلِي صَدَقَةً عَلَى الْمُسْلِمِينَ فَقَالَ لَهُ عُمَرُ فَلاَ تَفْعَلْ فَإِنِّي كُنْتُ أَرَدْتُ مِثْلَ الَّذِي أَرَدْتَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يُعْطِينِي الْعَطَاءَ فَأَقُولُ أَعْطِهِ أَفْقَرَ إِلَيْهِ مِنِّي فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ خُذْهُ فَتَمَوَّلْهُ أَوْ تَصَدَّقْ بِهِ مَا جَاءَكَ مِنْ هَذَا الْمَالِ وَأَنْتَ غَيْرُ مُشْرِفٍ وَلاَ سَائِلٍ فَخُذْهُ وَمَا لاَ فَلاَ تُتْبِعْهُ نَفْسَكَ

"I heard that you do some jobs for the people but when payment is given to you, you refuse it." I said: "(that is so)." 'Umar, may Allah be pleased with him, said: "Why do you do that? I said: "I have horses and slaves and am well off, and I wanted my work to be an act of charity toward the Muslims." 'Umar said to him: "Do not do that. I used to want the same thing as you. The Messenger of Allah used to give me payment and I would say, 'Give it to someone who is more in need of it that I am.' But the Messenger of Allah said: "Take it and keep it or give it in charity. Whatever comes to you of this wealth when you are not hoping for it and not asking for it, take it, and whatever does not, then do not wish for it. "'

    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".
