"عَنْ عُمَرَ قَالَ: إِنِّى أَنْزَلْتُ نَفْسِى مِنْ مَالِ اللهِ بِمَنْزِلَةِ وَالِى الْيَتِيمِ، إِنِ احْتَجْتُ أَخذْتُ مِنْهُ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ، فَإِذَا أَيْسَرْتُ رَدَدْتُهُ، وَإِنِ اسْتَغْنَيْتُ اسْتَعْفَفْتُ".

"From 'Umar who said: 'Indeed I have placed myself with regard to Allah's wealth in the position of the guardian of an orphan. If I am in need, I take from it in a reasonable manner; when I become well-off, I repay it; and if I become independent, I abstain.'"
