Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 34911 — What they said on the fifth
٣٤٩١١ - حدثنا غندر عن شعبة عن الحكم قال: سمعت عمرو بن ميمون قال: دخل عثمان بن حنيف على عمر فسمعته يقول: لأن زدت على كل رأس درهمين وعلى كل جريب الأرض درهما وقفيزا من طعام لا يضرهم ذلك، ولا يجهدهم أو كلمة نحوها، قال: نعم، قال: فكان على كل رأس ثمانية وأربعون، فجعلها خمسين (١).
Amr bin Maymun said that Sayyiduna Uthman bin Hunayf (may Allah be pleased with him) came in to Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him). Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said to him: "If you were to add two dirhams on each person, and one dirham and one qafiz of grain on each jarib of land, that would not harm them, nor overburden them," or a word like it. Sayyiduna Uthman bin Hunayf (may Allah be pleased with him) agreed with this. Each person had previously owed forty-eight, and it was now made fifty.
