Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 23368 — Gifts given to a governor or judge

Yahya bin Sa'id (may Allah have mercy on him) said: When the Prophet of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) sent Sayyiduna Ibn Rawahah (may Allah be pleased with him) to Khaybar, they gave him gifts. He (may Allah be pleased with him) returned them and said: This is unlawful.
