Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 35182 — What they said on dividing conquered
٣٥١٨٢ - حدثنا (عثام) (١) بن علي عن الأعمش عن أبي إسحاق عن ابن مضرب قال: قسم عمر السواد بين أهل الكوفة، فأصاب كل رجل منهم ثلاثة فلاحين، فقال له عمر: فمن يكون لهم بعدهم، فتركهم (٢).
Ibn Mudarrib (may Allah have mercy on him) said: Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) divided the farmland (Sawad) among the people of Kufah, in such a way that three farmers came to the share of each man. Thereupon Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said to him: Who will there be for them after them? Then he left them all.
