بَابُ أَدَبِ الْخَادِمِChapter: The Manners of the Servant
Hadith 170
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عِيسَى، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ وَهْبٍ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي مَخْرَمَةُ بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ يَزِيدَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ قُسَيْطٍ قَالَ: أَرْسَلَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ غُلاَمًا لَهُ بِذَهَبٍ أَوْ بِوَرِقٍ، فَصَرَفَهُ، فَأَنْظَرَ بِالصَّرْفِ، فَرَجَعَ إِلَيْهِ فَجَلَدَهُ جَلْدًا وَجِيعًا وَقَالَ: اذْهَبْ، فَخُذِ الَّذِي لِي، وَلاَ تَصْرِفْهُ.
It is narrated from Yazid bin Abdullah bin Qasit that Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) sent one of his slaves with gold or silver. He engaged in a currency exchange transaction and made it on credit. When he returned, Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) severely beat him and said: Go, bring my property back and do not engage in a currency exchange transaction.
