[Machine] Umar asked, "How much do you think a man's giving is sufficient for him?" He replied, "I said such and such." Umar said, "If I remain alive, I will make the giving of a man four thousand; a thousand for his weapon, a thousand for his expenses, a thousand to leave for his family, and a thousand for such and such." He said this for his horse.
