Bayhaqi 10694 — Selling the allowances issued by the ruler

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو أَحْمَدَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْمِهْرَجَانِيُّ، أنا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، ثنا ابْنُ بُكَيْرٍ، ثنا مَالِكٌ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ مَوْلَى عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ أَنَّ حَكِيمَ بْنَ حِزَامٍ ابْتَاعَ طَعَامًا أَمَرَ بِهِ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ لِلنَّاسِ فَبَاعَ حَكِيمٌ الطَّعَامَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَسْتَوْفِيَهُ فَسَمِعَ بِذَلِكَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ فَرَدَّ عَلَيْهِ وَقَالَ " لَا تَبِعْ طَعَامًا مَا ابْتَعْتَهُ حَتَّى تَسْتَوْفِيَهُ " فَحَكِيمٌ كَانَ قَدِ اشْتَرَاهُ مِنْ صَاحِبِهِ فَنَهَاهُ عَنْ بَيْعِهِ حَتَّى يَسْتَوْفِيَهُ.
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) said that Sayyiduna Hakim bin Hizam (may Allah be pleased with him) bought grain. Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) had ordered it for the people. Sayyiduna Hakim bin Hizam (may Allah be pleased with him) sold the grain before taking possession of it. Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) heard of this, so he reversed it for him and said: "Do not sell grain that you have bought until you take possession of it." Sayyiduna Hakim bin Hizam (may Allah be pleased with him) had bought it from its owner, so he forbade him from selling it before taking possession of it.
