Abu Abdullah al-Hafiz and Abu Sa'id ibn Abi Amr informed us, they said: Abu al-Abbas Muhammad ibn Ya'qub narrated to us: Yahya ibn Abi Talib narrated to us: Yazid ibn Harun informed us: Sufyan narrated from Qays ibn Muslim from Muhammad ibn al-Muntashir from Masruq who said: I came to Abdullah, meaning Ibn Mas'ud, and said: 'A man was living among us and went to the mountains where he died, leaving three hundred dirhams.' Abdullah said: 'Did he leave an heir, or does any of you have a bond of patronage over him?' I said: 'No.' He said: 'There are many heirs here.' So he placed his wealth in the public treasury.
