"عن جرير بن عبد اللَّه البجلى قالَ: كانت بُجَيْلَةُ ربعَ النَّاسِ فَقَسَمَ لهم عمر (ربعَ السَّواد فاستغلوهُ ثلاثَ سنين، ثم قدمت على عمر) فقال: لولا أنِى قاسمٌ مسئولٌ لَتَرَكْتُكُمْ على مَا قُسِمَ لكم، ولكنى أرى أن تردُّوا على الناس، ففعل".
[AI] "Omar gave a quarter of the black robe as a gift, so they took it for years. Then Jarir went to Omar and said, 'If I were not a responsible sharer, you would have had what was divided for you. I see that you should return it, so return it and I will compensate you with eighty dinars."
أَنَّ عُمَرَ ؓ أَعْطَى بَجِيلَةَ رُبْعَ السَّوَادِ فَأَخَذُوهُ سِنِينَ ثُمَّ وَفَدَ جَرِيرٌ ؓ إِلَى عُمَرَ ؓ فَقَالَ لَوْلَا أَنِّي قَاسِمٌ مَسْؤُولٌ لَكُنْتُمْ عَلَى مَا قُسِمَ لَكُمْ فَأَرَى أَنْ تَرُدَّهُ فَرَدَّهُ وَأَجَازَهُ بِثَمَانِينَ دِينَارًا
[AI] "O Jarir, by Allah, if it were not for the fact that I am a responsible distributor, I would have given you what was allocated for you. But I see that I should return it to the Muslims, so I will return it. He had allocated a quarter of the revenues to Bjilah, so they collected the tax for three years and then he returned it and gave them eighty dinars."
عُمَرُ ؓ لِجَرِيرٍ يَا جَرِيرُ وَاللهِ لَوْمَا أَنِّي قَاسِمٌ مَسئُولٌ لَكُنْتُمْ عَلَى مَا قُسِمَ لَكُمْ وَلَكِنِّي أَرَى أَنْ أَرُدَّهُ عَلَى الْمُسْلِمِينَ فَرَدَّهُ وَكَانَ جَعَلَ رُبْعَ السَّوَادِ لِبَجِيلَةَ فَأَخَذُوا الْخَرَاجَ ثَلَاثَ سِنِينَ فَرَدَّهُ وَأَعْطَاهُ ثَمَانِينَ دِينَارًا
[AI] We were a quarter of the people on the day of Al-Qadisiyah, so Umar gave us a quarter of the booty, and we took it for three years. Then Jarir went to Umar after that and said, "By Allah, if it were not for the fact that I am responsible and accountable, you would have received what was divided to you. So I suggest that you return it to the Muslims." Umar agreed and reimbursed him with eighty dinars.
كُنَّا رُبْعَ النَّاسِ يَوْمَ الْقَادِسِيَّةِ فَأَعْطَانَا عُمَرُ ؓ رُبْعَ السَّوَادِ فَأَخَذْنَاهُ ثَلَاثَ سِنِينَ ثُمَّ وَفَدَ جَرِيرٌ إِلَى عُمَرَ ؓ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ أَمَا وَاللهِ لَوْلَا أَنِّي قَاسِمٌ مَسْئُولٌ لَكُنْتُمْ عَلَى مَا قُسِمَ لَكُمْ فَأَرَى أَنْ تَرُدَّهُ عَلَى الْمُسْلِمِينَ فَفَعَلَ وَأَجَازَهُ بِثَمَانِينَ دِينَارًا
