[Machine] Umar sent for me and invited me. I entered upon him, and he was sitting on sand. He said, "O Malik, affliction has occurred to us from your people, so take this money and divide it among them." I said, "O Amir al-Mu'minin, is this not (the duty of) someone else?" He said, "Take it from yourself, O man." So I sat and Yarfa' came and said, "Do you have any claim against 'Abd al-Rahman, Talhah, Zubayr, and Sa'd?" I said, "Tell them to enter." So they entered and Yarfa' said, "Do you have any claim against 'Ali and 'Abbas?" I said, "Tell them to enter." So they entered and each one of them spoke to his companion. When they sat down, they said, "O Amir al-Mu'minin, settle between them and have mercy on both of them." He said, "I adjure you both by Allah, in whose hand is the control of the heavens and the earth, do you both know that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'We do not leave any inheritance; whatever we leave behind is charity?' meaning, so they said, "Yes." He then said that to others and the people said, "Yes." He said, "And he (the Prophet) said, 'Indeed, the wealth of the Banu Nadir is from the spoils that Allah has given to His Messenger, which the Muslims have not fought against with horses or camels. So it became exclusively for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , who would spend from it for his family for a year. What remained, he designated for the needy, weaponry, and charity for the sake of Allah. Then it became exclusively for the Prophet ﷺ .'" They both narrated it to me from the Hadith of Sufyan briefly.

ʿUmar bin al-Khattab ؓ sent for me, and whilst I was like that, his freed slave Yarfaʿ came and said: ‘Uthman, ʿAbdur-Rahman, Sa’d and az-Zubair bin al-ʿAwwam are here - (the narrator) said: I do not know whether he mentioned Talhah or not - and they are asking for permission to enter upon you. He said: Let them in. Then after a while, (Yarfaʿ) came and said: al-ʿAbbas and ‘Ali are asking permission to enter upon you. He said: Let them in. When alʿAbbas came in, he said: O Ameer al-Muʿmineen, judge between me and this one. They had a dispute at that time concerning the fai’ (booty) that Allah had granted to His Messenger of the wealth of Banun-Nadeer, The people said: Judge between them, O Ameer al-Muʿmineen, and relieve each one of his opponent, for their dispute has gone on too long. ‘Umar ؓ said: I adjure you by Allah, by Whose Leave heaven and earth exist, do you know that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, “We are not to be inherited from; what we leave behind is charityʿ? They said: He did say that. He said: I shall tell you about that faiʿ; Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, gave something exclusively to His Prophet ﷺ that He did not give to anyone else. And he quoted the verse: ʿAnd what Allah gave as booty (Fai’) to His Messenger (Muhammad ﷺ) from them - for this you made no expedition with either cavalry or camelryʿ [al Hashr 59:6]. He said: ʿThis was exclusively for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and by Allah, he did not keep it to himself in exclusion of you and he did not prefer himself over you with regard to it. Rather he gave it to you and divided it among you until there was nothing left of it except this property. He spent on his familyʿs needs from this property for one year, then he took what was left and regarded it as the property of Allah. When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed away, Abu Bakr said: ʿI am the successor of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, I shall deal with it as the Messenger of Allah ﷺ dealt with it.

[Machine] I sat among my family when the day was pleasant, and suddenly the messenger of Umar ibn al-Khattab came and said, "Answer the Commander of the Faithful." So I went with him until we entered upon Umar. There he was sitting on a bed of sand, with no mattress between him and the sand, reclining on a pillow made of leather. I greeted him, and then I sat down. He said to me, "Here, O Malik, O Malik, some people from your tribe, the Banu Abiyyat, have arrived, and you have been ordered to divide between them." I said, "O Commander of the Faithful, if you had ordered someone else to do it." He said, "Then take it, O man." So while I was sitting with him, his chamberlain came in and informed him. He said, "Do you have a matter concerning Uthman, Abdurrahman, Zubair, and Saad asking for your permission?"; he said, "Yes, give them permission." They entered and greeted him. He waited a little while, and then he said to Umar, "Do you have a matter concerning Ali and Abbas?" He said, "Yes, give them permission." When they entered, they greeted him and sat down. Abbas said, "O Commander of the Faithful, settle the matter between me and this man." Then Uthman and his companions said, "O Commander of the Faithful, settle the matter between them and relieve one of them from the other." And he mentioned the conversation.
