"عَن جُبَير بنِ نُفَيرٍ أَنَّ عُمَرَ بنَ الخَطَّابِ أُتِى بمِالٍ كَثير منَ الجِزْيَةِ، قال: إنِّى لأَظُنُّكم قد أَهْلَكتُم النَّاسَ؟ قَالُوا: لَا وَاللَّه، مَا أَخَذْنَا إِلَّا عَفْوًا صَفْوًا، قَال، بِلَا سَوْطٍ وَلَا نَوْطٍ ()؟ قَالُوا: نَعْم، قَالَ: الحَمْد للَّه الَّذِى لمْ يَجْعَلْ ذَلِك عَلَى يَدِى وَلَا فِى سُلْطَانِى".

"It is narrated from Jubayr ibn Nufayr that a large amount of jizyah was brought to 'Umar ibn al-Khattab. He said, 'I think you have ruined the people.' They said, 'No, by Allah, we only took what was easy and clear.' He said, 'Without whip or lash?' They said, 'Yes.' He said, 'Praise be to Allah who did not make this at my hand nor in my authority.'"
