"عَنْ كُلَيْبٍ قَالَ: قَدِمَ عَلَىَ عَلَىٍّ مَالٌ مِنْ أَصْبِهَانَ فَقَسَّمَهُ عَلَى سَبْعَةِ أَسْهُمٍ، فَوَجَدَ فِيهِ رَغيفًا فَكَسَّرهُ عَلى سَبْعَةٍ وَجَعَل عَلَى كُلِّ قِسْمٍ مِنْهَا كِسْرَةً، ثُمَ دَعَا أُمَرَاءَ الأَسْبَاعِ فَأَقْرَعَ بَيْنَهُم لِينْظُرَ أَيُّهُم يُعْطَى أَوَّلًا".

"From Kulayb, he said: Wealth from Isfahan came to Ali, and he divided it into seven shares. He found in it a loaf of bread, so he broke it into seven pieces and placed a piece on each share. Then he called the commanders of the shares and drew lots among them to see which of them would be given first."
