"عن ابن عمر قال: شهدت جَلُولَاء فابْتَعْتُ مِنَ المَغْنَم بِأَرْبَعِينَ أَلْفَا، فَلمَّا قَدِمْتُ عَلَى عُمَرَ قَالَ لى: أَرَأَيْتَ لَوْ عُرِضْتُ عَلَى النَّارِ فَقِيلَ لَك، افْتَدِيْنِى، أكنت مفتدىَّ؟ فَقُلْتُ: واللَّه مَا مِنْ شَىْءٍ يُؤذِيكَ إلَّا كُنتُ مُفَتدِيَك مِنْه، فَقَال: كَأَنِّى شَاهِدُ النَّاسِ حِينَ تَبَايَعُوا فَقَالُوا: عَبدُ اللَّه بْنُ عُمَرَ صَاحِبُ رَسولِ اللَّه ﷺ وابْنُ أَميرِ المُؤمنينَ، وَأحَبُّ النَّاسِ إِلَيه، وَأَنْتَ كَذَلِكَ، فَكَان أَنْ يُرْخِصوا عَلَيك بمائِةٍ أَحَبَّ إِلَيْهم منْ أَن يُغْلُوا عَلَيْك بِدِرْهَم، وَإنِّى قَاسِم مَسئولٌ، وأنا مُعْطِيكَ أكَثَر مَا رَبِحَ تاجِرٌ من قريشٍ، لَكَ رِبْح الدِّرهم دِرْهَمٌ، ثُمَّ دَعَا التُّجَّارَ فَابْتَاعُوا مِنْه بِأربَعْمِائة أَلْفٍ، فَدَفَع إِلَىَّ ثَمانينَ أَلْفًا، وبعثَ بالبَقِيَّةِ إلَى سَعدِ بنِ أَبى وَقَّاص، فَقَالَ: اقْسِمْهُ فِى الَّذِينَ شَهِدُوا الْوَقْعَةَ وَمَن كَانَ مَاتَ مِنْهم فَادْفَعْه إلَى وَرَثَتِه".

"From Ibn 'Umar who said: 'I witnessed Jalula' and bought from the spoils for forty thousand. When I came to 'Umar, he said to me: 'Tell me, if you were presented to the Fire and it was said to you: ransom yourself, would you ransom yourself?' I said: 'By Allah, there is nothing that would harm you except that I would ransom you from it.' He said: 'It is as if I see the people when they traded, saying: 'Abdullah ibn 'Umar, companion of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and son of the Commander of the Believers, and the most beloved of people to him, and you are like that.' So they would offer you a hundred less than what they loved to give you a dirham more, and I am a responsible divider. I will give you the most that any merchant of Quraysh has profited: for you, the profit of a dirham is a dirham.' Then he called the merchants and they bought from him for four hundred thousand. He gave me eighty thousand and sent the rest to Sa'd ibn Abi Waqqas, saying: 'Distribute it among those who witnessed the battle, and whoever of them has died, give it to his heirs.'"
