"عَنْ المُغِيرَة بْنِ النُّعْمَانِ النَّخَعِى قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِى أَشْيَاخُنَا قَالُوا: صَارَ فِى قَسْم النَّخَعى رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَبْنَاءِ الْمُلُوكِ [يَوْمَ] الْقَادِسِيَّةِ، فَأَرَادَ سَعْدُ أَنْ يَأْخُذَهُ مِنْهُمْ فَعَدَوْا عَلَيْهِ بِسيَاطِهِمْ، فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَيْهِمْ إِنِى كَتَبْتُ إِلِى عُمَرَ بنِ الْخَطَّابِ فَقَالُوا: قَدْ رَضِينَا، فَكَتَبَ إِلَيْهِ عُمَرُ بنُ الْخَطَّابِ: إِنَا لا نُخْمِسُ أَبْنَاءَ الْمُلُوكِ، فأَخَذَهُ مِنْهُمْ سَعْدٌ، قَالَ الْمُغِيرَةُ: لأَنَّ فِدَاءَهُ أكْثَرُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ".

“From al-Mughirah ibn al-Nu'man al-Nakha'i, who said: Our shaykhs told me, saying: A man from the sons of kings fell to the share of al-Nakha'i on the day of al-Qadisiyyah. Sa'd wanted to take him from them, but they attacked him with their whips. So he sent to them: I have written to 'Umar ibn al-Khattab. They said: We are content. Then 'Umar ibn al-Khattab wrote to him: We do not take a fifth from the sons of kings. So Sa'd took him from them. Al-Mughirah said: Because his ransom was more than that.”
