[Machine] I used to live among the tribe of Taghlib and every time they would come and go, they would be accompanied by a shaykh from among them. One day, a shaykh came to Umar and said, "Ziyad always lives among us whenever we leave or return." Umar replied, "That is enough." Then the shaykh went to Umar again, while Umar was in a gathering, and said, "O Commander of the Faithful, I am the Christian shaykh." Umar responded, "And I am the Hanifi shaykh. You have been prohibited from living with them more than once a year."  

كُنْتُ أُعَشِّرُ بَنِي تَغْلِبَ كُلَّمَا أَقْبَلُوا وَأَدْبَرُوا فَانْطَلَقَ شَيْخٌ مِنْهُمْ إِلَى عُمَرَ فَقَالَ إِنَّ زِيَادًا يُعَشِّرُنَا كُلَّمَا أَقْبَلْنَا أَوْ أَدْبَرْنَا فَقَالَ تُكْفَى ذَلِكَ ثُمَّ أَتَاهُ الشَّيْخُ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ وَعُمَرُ ؓ فِي جَمَاعَةٍ فَقَالَ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ أَنَا الشَّيْخُ النَّصْرَانِيُّ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ ؓ وَأَنَا الشَّيْخُ الْحَنِيفُ قَدْ كُفِيتَ قَالَ وَكَتَبَ إِلِيَّ أَنْ لَا تُعَشِّرَهُمْ فِي السَّنَةِ إِلَّا مَرَّةً
