Sayyiduna Tamim al-Dari (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: Before Syria was conquered, I asked the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) for a piece of land in Syria as a fief, and he granted it to me. That land was conquered during the caliphate of Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him). I came to him and said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) granted me the land from such-and-such a place to such-and-such a place. So Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) allotted one third of it for the wayfarer, one third for those who work it, and one third for us.
This narration has been recorded by Imam al-Tabarani, and its narrators are thiqat (trustworthy).
