وَعَنْهُ أَيْضًا قَالَ أَوَّلُ صَدَقَةٍ كَانَتْ فِي الْإِسْلَامِ صَدَقَةُ عُمَرَ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ احْبِسْ أُصُولَهَا وَسَبِّلْ ثَمَرَتَهَا
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the very first charity in Islam was given by Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him). The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said to him: Keep the principal of these date palms and give their fruits in charity in the way of Allah Almighty.
