Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 35122 — What they said on the governor's

Muharib bin Dithar (may Allah have mercy on him) said that al-Ahnaf bin Qays (may Allah have mercy on him) said: We were sitting at the door of Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) when a slave girl came out to us. A man among the people asked her: "Has the Commander of the Faithful had intercourse with you?" She said: "Indeed, I am not lawful for him." She meant that she was from the khums wealth. Just then Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) also came out and said: "Do you know how much of this fay' wealth I have considered lawful for myself? One mount on which I perform Hajj and Umrah, and two sets of clothes, a winter set and a summer set, and the provisions of Umar's household, equal to the provisions of the household of a man of Quraysh who is neither very wealthy nor very poor."
