السنن الكبرى للبيهقي
Sunan al-Kubra al-Bayhaqi
كتاب قسم الفيء والغنيمة
Book of the Division of Fai and Spoils of War
باب: ما لم يوجف عليه بخيل ولا ركاب، ومن اختار أن يكون وقفا للمسلمين كما فعل عمر بن الخطاب رضي الله عنه بأرض العراق وغيرها، إما بأن كانت فيئا فتركها وقفا، وإما بأن كانت غنيمة فاستطاب أنفس من كان ظهر عليها كما استطاب رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم أنفس أهل
Chapter: Wealth obtained without horses or camels being spurred against it, and those who preferred making it an endowment for the Muslims as Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) did with the land of Iraq and elsewhere, either because it was fay and he left it as an endowment, or because it was spoils and he obtained the consent of those who had conquered it, as the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) obtained the consent of some people
Bayhaqi 13043 — Wealth obtained without horses or camels being spurred
بَ كَمَا فَعَلَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ بِأَرْضِ الْعِرَاقِ وَغَيْرِهَا، إِمَّا بِأَنْ كَانَتْ فَيْئًا فَتَرَكَهَا وَقْفًا، وَإِمَّا بِأَنْ كَانَتْ غَنِيمَةً فَاسْتَطَابَ أَنْفُسَ مَنْ كَانَ ظَهَرَ عَلَيْهَا كَمَا اسْتَطَابَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْفُسَ أَهْلِ سَبْيِ هَوْازِنَ حَتَّى تَرَكُوا حُقُوقَهُمْ.
Just as Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) did with the land of Iraq and elsewhere: either because it was fay', so he left it as an endowment (waqf, for the Muslims), or because it was spoils of war, so he obtained the consent of those who had conquered it, just as the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) obtained the consent of (those who had taken) the captives of the tribe of Hawazin, until they gave up their rights.
أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو سَعِيدِ بْنُ أَبِي عَمْرٍو، ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، ثنا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ عَفَّانَ، ثنا يَحْيَى بْنُ آدَمَ، ثنا ابْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ، عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ أَبِي خَالِدٍ، عَنْ قَيْسِ بْنِ أَبِي حَازِمٍ، أَنَّ عُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ أَعْطَى بَجِيلَةَ رُبْعَ السَّوَادِ، فَأَخَذُوهُ سِنِينَ، ثُمَّ وَفَدَ جَرِيرٌ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ إِلَى عُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ فَقَالَ: " لَوْلَا أَنِّي قَاسِمٌ مَسْؤُولٌ لَكُنْتُمْ عَلَى مَا قُسِمَ لَكُمْ، فَأَرَى أَنْ تَرُدَّهُ "، فَرَدَّهُ وَأَجَازَهُ بِثَمَانِينَ دِينَارًا.
It is narrated from Qays bin Abi Hazim that Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) gave the tribe of Bajilah a quarter of the Sawad (the cultivated land of Iraq), and they held it for some years. Then Jarir (may Allah be pleased with him) came as a delegate to Umar (may Allah be pleased with him), and he said: Were it not that I am a distributor who will be held accountable, you would have kept what was allotted to you; but I think that you should return it. So he returned it, and he rewarded him with eighty dinars.
