Hadith 2364
حَدَّثَنَا الرَّبِيعُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ الْمُرَادِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ ، حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ ، عَنْ بُكَيْرٍ ، عَنْ بُسْرِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ ، عَنِ ابْنِ السَّاعِدِيِّ الْمَالِكِيِّ ، قَالَ : اسْتَعْمَلَنِي عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ عَلَى الصَّدَقَةِ ، فَلَمَّا فَرَغْتُ مِنْهَا ، وَأَدَّيْتُهَا إِلَيْهِ أَمَرَ لِي بِعُمَالَةٍ ، فَقُلْتُ : إِنَّمَا عَمِلْتُ لِلَّهِ ، وَأَجْرِي عَلَى اللَّهِ ، فَقَالَ : خُذْ مَا أَعْطَيْتُكَ ، فَإِنِّي قَدْ عَمِلْتُ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَعَمَّلَنِي ، فَقُلْتُ : مِثْلَ قَوْلِكَ ، فَقَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " إِذَا أُعْطِيتَ شَيْئًا مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ تَسْأَلَ ، فَكُلْ وَتَصَدَّقَ " ، قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرِ : ابْنُ السَّاعِدِيِّ الْمَالِكِيُّ : أَحْسِبُهُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ سَعْدِ بْنِ أَبِي سَرْحٍ
Sayyiduna Ibn al-Sa’idi al-Maliki (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) appointed me as a collector of Zakat. When I finished collecting Zakat and handed over the wealth to him, he ordered that I be given wages. I submitted, “Indeed, I did this work for the pleasure of Allah, and my reward is with Allah Almighty alone.” So Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said, “Take what I am giving you, because I performed this same task during the blessed era of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and he gave me wages. I also expressed myself as you did. Upon this, Allah’s Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said to me: ‘When something comes to you without you asking for it, then eat it and give charity from it.’” Imam Abu Bakr (may Allah have mercy on him) says that in my opinion, the Ibn al-Sa’idi al-Maliki referred to here is Abdullah bin Sa’d Abi Sarh.
