"عَنِ السَّائِبِ بنِ يزيدَ قالَ: كُنْتُ عاملًا على سوق المدينةِ زمَن عمر فكنَّا نَأخُذُ من النَّبَطِ العشرَ".
Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab that as-Sa'ib ibn Yazid said, "As a young man I used to work with Abdullah ibn Utba ibn Masud in the market of Madina in the time of Umar ibn al-Khattab and we used to take a tenth from the Nabateans."
أَنَّهُ قَالَ كُنْتُ غُلاَمًا عَامِلاً مَعَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ عَلَى سُوقِ الْمَدِينَةِ فِي زَمَانِ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ فَكُنَّا نَأْخُذُ مِنَ النَّبَطِ الْعُشْرَ
[AI] He said, "I used to work with Abdullah ibn Uthba in the market of the city during the time of Umar ibn Khattab. He used to take a tenth from the Nabateans."
أَنَّهُ قَالَ كُنْتُ عَامِلًا مَعَ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ عَلَى سُوقِ الْمَدِينَةِ فِي زَمَانِ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ ؓ فَكَانَ يَأْخُذُ مِنَ النَّبَطِ الْعُشْرَ
[AI] I used to live with Abdullah bin Umar bin Al-Khattab. He would take half of the profits from the people of the dhimmah (non-Muslim minorities) in return for their business transactions.
كُنْتُ أُعَاشِرُ مَعَ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ زَمَانَ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ ؓ فَكَانَ يَأْخُذُ مِنْ أَهْلِ الذِّمَّةِ أَنْصَافَ عُشُورِ أَمْوَالِهِمْ فِيمَا تَجَرُوا فِيهِ
