Tawus al-Yamani (may Allah have mercy on him) said that Sayyiduna Mu'adh bin Jabal (may Allah be pleased with him) collected a yearling calf from thirty cattle and a musinnah from forty cattle. Fewer than that were brought to him, and he refused to take anything from them, and said: I have not heard anything about this from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), until I meet him and ask him. But the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) passed away before Sayyiduna Mu'adh bin Jabal (may Allah be pleased with him) came to him.
