Jami' al-Saghir / Jam' al-Jawami' (al-Suyuti) 2-1316b
"عَنْ يَحْيى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ: قَالَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الخَطَّابِ لِعَبْدِ اللَّه بْنِ الأَرْقَمِ: اقْسِمْ بَيْتَ مَالِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ في كُلِّ شَهْرٍ مَرَةً، ثُمَّ قَالَ: اقْسِمْ بَيْتَ مَالِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ في كُلِّ جُمُعَةٍ مَرَّةً، ثُمَّ قَالَ: اقْسِمْ بَيْتَ مَالِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ في كُلِّ مَرَّةٍ، فَقَالَ رَجُل مِنَ الْقَوْمِ: يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ! لَوْ أبقَيْتَ في بَيْتِ مَالِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ بَقِيَّةً تَعُدُّهَا لِنَائِبَةٍ أَوْ صَوْتٍ، (يَعْنِى خَارِجَةً) فَقَالَ عُمَرُ لِلرَّجُلِ الَّذِى كَلَّمَهُ: جَرَى الشَّيْطَانُ عَلَى لِسَانِكَ، لَقَّنَنِى اللَّه حُجَّتهَا وَوَقَانِى شَرَّهَا، أُعِدُّ لَهَا مَا أَعَدَّ لهَا رَسُولُ اللَّه ﷺ ".

"It is narrated from Yahya ibn Sa'id, from his father, that he said: 'Umar ibn al-Khattab said to 'Abdullah ibn al-Arqam: Divide the treasury of the Muslims once every month. Then he said: Divide the treasury of the Muslims once every Friday. Then he said: Divide the treasury of the Muslims every time. A man from the people said: O Commander of the Faithful! If only you would leave in the treasury of the Muslims a remainder that you could count for an emergency or an expense (meaning Kharijah). 'Umar said to the man who spoke to him: Satan has run upon your tongue. Allah has taught me its argument and protected me from its evil. I prepare for it what the Messenger of Allah ﷺ prepared for it."
