"عن عبد اللَّه بن أَبى عامر قال: انطلقتُ في ركبٍ، فَسُرِقت عيبةٌ لى ومعنا رجل يُتَّهم، فقال أصحابى: يا فلانُ أدِّ عَيْبَتَهُ! فقال: ما أخذتهَا، فرجعت إلى عمر بن الخطاب فأخبرته، فقال: كم أنتم؟ فعددتهم، فقال: أظنه صاحبها الذى اتهم، قلت: لقد أردت يا أمير المؤمنين أن آتى به مصفودا فتقول: أتَأتِى به مصفودًا بغير بينة؟ فقال: لا أكتب لك فيها, ولا أسألك عنها، قال: فغضب، فما كتب لى فيها ولا سأل عنها".

“From ‘Abd Allah ibn Abi ‘Amir who said: I set out in a caravan, and my saddlebag was stolen, and with us was a man who was suspected. My companions said: ‘O so-and-so, return his saddlebag!’ He said: ‘I did not take it.’ I returned to ‘Umar ibn al-Khattab and informed him. He said: ‘How many are you?’ I counted them. He said: ‘I think it is its owner who is the suspected one.’ I said: ‘O Commander of the Faithful, I wanted to bring him bound, and you would say: Do you bring him bound without evidence?’ He said: ‘I will not write to you about it, nor ask you about it.’ He became angry, so he did not write to me about it, nor did he ask about it.”
