Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 35136 — What they said on the stipend

Qays bin Abi Hazim (may Allah have mercy on him) said that after the death of Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him), Sayyiduna al-Zubayr (may Allah be pleased with him) came to Sayyiduna Ammar (may Allah be pleased with him) or Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) and said: "Give me the annual stipend of Sayyiduna Abdullah, for the family of Sayyiduna Abdullah are more entitled to it than the public treasury." The narrator says: So he gave him fifteen thousand dirhams.
