Jami' al-Saghir / Jam' al-Jawami' (al-Suyuti) 2-1406b
"عن هانئِ بنِ كُلْثوم: أن صاحبَ جيشِ الشامِ حين فُتحت الشامُ كتب إلى عمرَ بن الخطابِ: إنا فَتَحْنا أرضًا كثيرةَ الطَّعام والعَلَفِ، فكرهت أن أَتقدمَ في شئٍ من ذلك إلا بأمرِك، فاكتب إلىَّ بأمرِك في ذلك، فكتب إليه عمرُ: أن دعَ الناس يأكلونَ ويعلِفُون، فمن باع شيئًا بذهب أو فضة ففيه خُمُس اللَّه، وسهامُ المسلمين".

"It is narrated from Hani' ibn Kulthum that the commander of the army of Sham, when Sham was conquered, wrote to 'Umar ibn al-Khattab: 'We have conquered a land abundant in food and fodder, and I disliked to proceed in any of that without your command, so write to me with your command concerning it.' 'Umar wrote to him: 'Leave the people to eat and to feed their animals. Whoever sells something for gold or silver, there is in it the fifth for Allah and the shares of the Muslims.'"
