ما قالوا: في الوالي أله أن يقطع شيئا من الأرض؟Those Who Said: Does the Ruler Have the Right to Grant Ownership of Land?
Hadith 35244
٣٥٢٤٤ - حدثنا وكيع قال: ثنا سفيان عن جابر عن عامر قال: لم يقطع أبو بكر ولا عمر ولا علي، وأول من أقطع القطائع عثمان وبيعت أرضون في إمارة عثمان (١).
Hazrat Jabir, may Allah have mercy on him, narrates that Hazrat Amir, may Allah have mercy on him, said: Neither Abu Bakr, may Allah be pleased with him, granted lands, nor did Hazrat Umar, may Allah be pleased with him, nor did Hazrat Ali, may Allah be pleased with him. The first person to make people owners of land was Hazrat Uthman. During the caliphate of Hazrat Uthman, may Allah have mercy on him, lands were sold.
