Jami' al-Saghir / Jam' al-Jawami' (al-Suyuti) 2-1358b
"عَنْ جرير أن رجلًا كان مع أَبى موسى فغنِموا مغنمًا، فأعطاه أبو موسى نصيبَه ولم يُوفِه فأبى أن يأخذَه إلا جميعَه، فضربهَ عشرين سوطًا، وحلق رأسَه، فجمع شعرَه وذهب به إلى عمرَ، فأخرج شعرًا من جيبه، فضربَ به صدرَ عمر، قال: مالك؟ فذكر قِصَّتَه، فكتب عمر إلى أَبى موسى: سلامٌ عليك أما بعدُ؛ فإنَّ فلانَ ابن فلانٍ أخبرنَى بكذا وكذا وإنّى أُقْسِم عليك، إن كنتَ فعلتَ ما فعلتَ في ملأٍ من النَّاسِ، جلستَ له في ملأٍ من النَّاسِ فاقتص منكَ، وإن كنتَ فعلتَ ما فعلتَ في خلاءٍ فاقعد له في خلاءٍ فَليَقْتصَّ منكَ، فلما دُفع إليه الكتاب قعدَ للقصاصِ، فقال: الرَّجُل: قد عفوتُ عَنْه للَّه".

"From Jarir that a man was with Abu Musa, and they took booty. Abu Musa gave him his share but did not give it in full, and when he refused to take anything but all of it, Abu Musa struck him twenty lashes and shaved his head. He gathered his hair and went with it to 'Umar, and took out some hair from his pocket and struck 'Umar's chest with it. 'Umar said: What is the matter with you? So he told him his story. 'Umar wrote to Abu Musa: Peace be upon you. To proceed: So-and-so son of so-and-so informed me of such-and-such, and I swear to you: if you did what you did in the presence of people, then sit for him in the presence of people so that he may retaliate against you; and if you did what you did in private, then sit for him in private so that he may retaliate against you. When the letter was handed to him, he sat for retaliation. The man said: I have pardoned him for Allah's sake."
