"From Ibn 'Umar, who said: I bought camels and sent them to the protected pasture (al-himى). When they had grown fat, I brought them back. 'Umar entered the market and saw fat camels and said: Whose camels are these? He was told: They belong to 'Abdullah ibn 'Umar. He kept saying: O 'Abdullah ibn 'Umar, well done, well done, son of the Commander of the Believers! I came running and said: What is wrong, O Commander of the Believers? He said: These camels. I said: They are camels I bought and sent to the protected pasture seeking what the Muslims seek. He said: Let the camels of the son of the Commander of the Believers graze! Let the camels of the son of the Commander of the Believers drink! O 'Abdullah ibn 'Umar, go back with your capital, and put the surplus in the treasury of the Muslims."
