"عَنْ شِهَابِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّه الْخَوْلَانِىِّ قَالَ: خَرجَ سَعْدٌ حَتَّى قَدِمَ على عُمَرَ الْمَدِينَةَ، فَقَالَ: أَيْنَ تُرِيدُ؟ قَالَ: الْجِهَادَ، فَقَالَ: ارْجِعْ، فَإِنَّ عَمَلًا بِالْحَقِّ (خَيْرُ جِهَادٍ ()) فَلَمَّا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَرْجِعَ قَالَ لَهُ عُمَرُ: إِذَا مَرَرْتُمْ بِصَاحِبِ الْمَالِ فَلَا تَنْسَوا الْحَسَنَةَ، وَلَا تُنَسُّوهَا صَاحِبَهَا، وَفَرِّقُوا المَالَ ثَلَاثَ فِرَقٍ، فَخَيِّرُوا صَاحِبَ الْمَالِ ثُلُثًا، ثُمَّ اختَارُوا مِنْ أَحَدِ الثُّلُثَيْنِ، ثُمَّ ضَعُوهَا في كَذَا وَكَذَا، قَالَ أُمُورًا وَصَفَهَا".

"On the authority of Shihab ibn 'Abd Allah al-Khawlani, who said: Sa'd set out until he came to Umar in Madinah. He said: 'Where do you intend to go?' He said: 'To jihad.' He said: 'Return, for working with the truth is (the better jihad ()).' When he wanted to return, Umar said to him: 'When you pass by the owner of the wealth, do not forget the good deed, and do not let its owner forget it. Divide the wealth into three portions: offer the owner one third, then choose from the two-thirds, then place them in such and such,' and he mentioned matters that he described."
