Bayhaqi 10985 — The guardian trading with an orphan's wealth

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، ثنا أَبُو سَعِيدٍ عَمْرُو بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْعَدْلُ، ثنا بِشْرُ بْنُ مُوسَى، ثنا مُوسَى بْنُ دَاوُدَ الضَّبِّيُّ، ثنا الْقَاسِمُ بْنُ الْفَضْلِ الْحُدَّانِيُّ، عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ قُرَّةَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي الْحَكَمُ بْنُ أَبِي الْعَاصِ قَالَ: قَالَ لِي عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ: " هَلْ قِبَلَكُمْ مَتْجَرٌ؛ فَإِنَّ عِنْدِي مَالَ يَتِيمٍ قَدْ كَادَتِ الزَّكَاةُ أَنْ تَأْتِيَ عَلَيْهِ " قَالَ: قُلْتُ لَهُ: نَعَمْ، قَالَ: فَدَفَعَ إِلِيَّ عَشَرَةَ آلَافٍ، فَغِبْتُ عَنْهُ مَا شَاءَ اللهُ، ثُمَّ رَجَعْتُ إِلَيْهِ، فَقَالَ لِي: " مَا فَعَلَ الْمَالُ؟ " قَالَ: قُلْتُ: هُوَ ذَا قَدْ بَلَغَ مِائَةَ أَلْفٍ، قَالَ: " رُدَّ عَلَيْنَا مَالَنَا، لَا حَاجَةَ لَنَا بِهِ ".
Al-Hakam bin Abi al-As said that Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "Do you have any trade? I have an orphan's wealth that is about to be used up by the payment of zakah." I said: Yes. He said that he gave me ten thousand, and I was away with that wealth for some time. Then I returned to him, and he asked me about it: "What became of the wealth?" I said: It has become one hundred thousand. He said: "Return our wealth to us; we have no need of the trade."
