English narration

Narrated by عبد الله بن عمر العدوي

Concerning the Waqf of 'Umar It was not sinful of the trustee (of the Waqf) to eat or provide his friends from it, provided the trustee had no intention of collecting fortune (for himself). Ibn 'Umar was the manager of the trust of 'Umar and he used to give presents from it to those with whom he used to stay at Mecca.

النص العربي

حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ ، عَنْ عَمْرٍو ، قَالَ فِي صَدَقَةِ عُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ : "

لَيْسَ عَلَى الْوَلِيِّ جُنَاحٌ أَنْ يَأْكُلَ ، وَيُؤْكِلَ صَدِيقًا لَهُ غَيْرَ مُتَأَثِّلٍ مَالًا

" ، فَكَانَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ هُوَ يَلِي صَدَقَةَ عُمَرَ ، يُهْدِي لِنَاسٍ مِنْ أَهْلِ مَكَّةَ ، كَانَ يَنْزِلُ عَلَيْهِمْ .
