"عن الشعبى قال: كتب عمرُ إلى السايب بن الأقرع: أيُّما رَجُلٍ من المسلمين وجد رقيقه ومتاعه بِعَينِه فهو أحَق به، وإن وجده في أيدى التُّجار بعد ما قسم فلا سبيل إليه، وأيما حر اشتراه التجار فيرد إليهم رءوس أموالهم، فإن الحر لا يباع ولا يشترى".

"Narrated from al-Sha'bi: 'Umar wrote to al-Sa'ib ibn al-Aqra': Any man among the Muslims who finds his slave and his goods exactly as they were is more entitled to them; and if he finds them in the hands of merchants after they have been divided, there is no recourse to them. And any free person whom merchants have bought, their capital is to be returned to them, for a free person is not to be sold or bought."
