أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، ثنا أَبُو مُحَمَّدٍ دَعْلَجُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ السِّجِسْتَانِيُّ بِبَغْدَادَ، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ زَيْدٍ الصَّائِغُ، ثنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ شَبِيبٍ، أنبأ أَبِي، عَنْ يُونُسَ، عَنِ ⦗١٣٩⦘ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ، وَهُوَ أَخُو زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ قَالَ: خَرَجْنَا مَعَ ابْنِ عُمَرَ نَمْشِي فَلَحِقَنَا أَعْرَابِيٌّ فَقَالَ: أَنْتَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ قَالَ: " نَعَمْ "، قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ عَنْكَ فَدُلِلْتُ عَلَيْكَ فَأَخْبِرْنِي أَتَرِثُ الْعَمَّةُ؟ فَقَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ: " لَا أَدْرِي " فَقَالَ: أَنْتَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ وَلَا تَدْرِي وَقَالَ مَرَّةً أُخْرَى: أَنْتَ لَا تَدْرِي وَلَا نَدْرِي قَالَ: " نَعَمْ، اذْهَبْ إِلَى الْعُلَمَاءِ بِالْمَدِينَةِ فَسَلْهُمْ " فَلَمَّا أَدْبَرَ قَبَّلَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ يَدَيْهِ قَالَ: نِعِمَّا قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ يُسْأَلُ عَمَّا لَا يَدْرِي فَقَالَ لَا أَدْرِي، فَقَالَ الْأَعْرَابِيُّ: يَقُولُ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ {وَالَّذِينَ يَكْنِزُونَ الذَّهَبَ وَالْفِضَّةَ} [التوبة: ٣٤] فَقَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ: " مَنْ كَنَزَهُمَا وَلَمْ يُؤَدِّ زَكَاتَهُمَا فَوَيْلٌ لَهُ إِنَّمَا كَانَ هَذَا قَبْلَ أَنْ تَنْزِلَ الزَّكَاةُ، فَلَمَّا نَزَلَتْ جَعَلَهَا اللهُ طُهْرَةً لِلْأَمْوَالِ " ثُمَّ الْتَفَتَ إِلَيَّ فَقَالَ: " مَا أُبَالِي لَوْ كَانَ لِي مِثْلُ أُحُدٍ ذَهَبًا أَعْلَمُ عَدَدَهُ وَأُزَكِّيهِ وَأَعْمَلُ فِيهِ بِطَاعَةِ اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ " أَخْرَجَهُ الْبُخَارِيُّ فِي الصَّحِيحِ مُخْتَصَرًا فَقَالَ: وَقَالَ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ شَبِيبٍ وَأَعَادَهُ فِي التَّفْسِيرِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ شَبِيبٍ.
Khalid bin Aslam said: We went out with Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both), and while we were walking a Bedouin caught up with us and said: Are you Abdullah bin Umar? He said: Yes. The Bedouin said: I asked about you and was directed to you. Tell me: does the paternal aunt inherit? Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: I do not know. He said: You are Ibn Umar and you do not know this? Another time he said: You do not know, and we do not know. Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: Yes; go to the scholars of Madinah and ask them. When he turned away, Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) kissed his own hands and said: How well Abu Abd al-Rahman spoke! He was asked about what he did not know, and he said: I do not know. Then the Bedouin said: Allah Almighty says: "And those who hoard gold and silver" [Surah al-Tawbah: 34]. Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: Whoever hoarded them and did not pay their zakah, woe to him. This was only before the command of zakah was revealed; when zakah was revealed, Allah Almighty made it a means of purifying wealth. Then he looked towards me and said: I would not mind if I had gold equal to (Mount) Uhud, knowing its amount, paying its zakah and dealing with it in obedience to the command of Allah.
