"عَنْ طَارِقِ بْنِ شِهَابٍ قَالَ: خَرَجَ قَوْمٌ مِنَ الأَنْصَارِ مِنَ الْكُوفَةِ إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ فَأَتَوْا عَلَى حَىٍّ مِنْ بِنَى أَسَدٍ - وَقَدْ أَرْمَلُوا - فَسَأَلُوهُمُ البَيْع وَقَدْ رَاحَ عَلَيْهِمْ مَالٌ لَهُمْ حَسَنٌ، قَالُوا: مَا عِنْدَنَا بَيْعٌ، فسَأَلُوهُمُ الْقِرَى قَالُوا: مَا نُطِيقُ قِرَاكُمْ، فلَمْ يَزَلْ بَيْنَهُمْ وَبَيْنَ الأَعْرَابِ حَتَّى اقْتَتلُوا، فَتَرَكَتْ لَهُمُ الأَعْرَابُ الْبُيُوتَ وَمَا فِيهَا، فَأَخَذُوا لِكُلِّ عَشَرَةٍ مِنْهُمْ شَاةً (قال: ) فأَتَوْا عُمَرَ فَذَكرُوا ذَلِك لَهُ، فَقَامَ فَحَمِدَ اللهَ وَأَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ وَقَالَ: لَوْ كُنْتُ تَقَدَّمْتُ في هَذَا لَفَعَلْتُ وفعلت، ثُمَّ كَتَبَ إِلَى أَهْلِ الأَمْصَارِ وَأَهْلِ الذِّمَّةِ بِنُزُلِ لَيْلَةٍ للِضَّيْفِ".

"Tariq ibn Shihab narrated: A group of the Ansar set out from Kufah toward Madinah, and they came upon a tribe of Banu Asad, and they had become destitute. They asked them to sell (provisions) to them, though their wealth had gone from them. They said: 'We have nothing to sell.' They asked them for hospitality, and they said: 'We cannot afford to host you.' The dispute between them and the Bedouins continued until they fought, and the Bedouins left them the houses and what was in them. They took one sheep for every ten of them. (He said:) They came to 'Umar and mentioned that to him, and he stood, praised Allah, extolled Him, and said: 'If I had preceded in this matter I would have done such and such.' Then he wrote to the regional governors and the people of the dhimmah: 'Provide one night's lodging for the guest.'"
