[Machine] You brought eighty thousand dirhams, I said no, I brought eight hundred thousand dirhams. He said, didn't I tell you that you were a foolish Yamani? I only brought eighty thousand dirhams, so what is eight hundred thousand? I counted one hundred thousand, and then one hundred thousand, until I counted eight hundred thousand. He said, nice? Woe to you, I said yes. He said, so Umar spent his night sleepless until the call to Fajr prayer. His wife said to him, O Amir al-Mu'minin, did you not sleep tonight? He said, how can Umar ibn al-Khattab sleep when people have come to him in a way that has never happened since the dawn of Islam? And Umar will not believe until he is destroyed, and that money was with him and he did not put it in its rightful place. When he prayed Fajr prayer, a group of the companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ gathered to him. He said to them, people have come tonight in a way that has never happened since the dawn of Islam, and I saw a vision, so advise me. I thought of feeding the people according to a measure. They said, don't do it, O Amir al-Mu'minin; people are entering Islam and wealth is growing. But give them according to the Book. So every time people and wealth increased, you gave them according to it. He said, advise me on who should I start with from among them? They said, with you, O Amir al-Mu'minin; you are the guardian of that, and among them is someone who said that the Amir al-Mu'minin knows best. He said, no, but I start with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , and then the closest to him. and he put the divan to that. Ubaidullah said, he started with Hashim and Muttalib, and he gave them all. then he gave the sons of Abd Shams, and then the sons of Nawfal ibn Abdu Manaf, and he only started with the sons of Abd Shams because he was the brother of Hashim from his mother. Ubaidullah said, the first one to differentiate between the sons of Hashim and the sons of Muttalib in calling people to Islam was Abd al-Malik, and he mentioned a story about that.
