Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 35090 — Slaves: are they allotted stipends
٣٥٠٩٠ - حدثنا معتمر بن سليمان عن داود عن يوسف بن سعد عن وهيب أن زيد بن ثابت كان في إمارة عثمان على بيت المال، قال: فدخل عثمان (فأبصر) (١) ⦗٣٠١⦘ (وهيبا) (٢) يعينهم فقال: من هذا؟ فقال: مملوك لي، فقال: أراه يعينهم، افرض له ألفين، قال: ففرض له ألفًا (٣).
Wuhayb (may Allah have mercy on him) said: Sayyiduna Zayd bin Thabit (may Allah be pleased with him) was appointed overseer of the public treasury during the caliphate of Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him). One day Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) came and saw Wuhayb helping them. He asked: "Who is this?" Sayyiduna Zayd (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "He is my slave." He said: "I see that he was helping these people. Assign two thousand for him." So he assigned one thousand for him.
