أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو سَعِيدِ بْنُ أَبِي عَمْرٍو ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ ثنا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ عَفَّانَ ثنا يَحْيَى بْنُ آدَمَ ثنا ابْنُ أَبِي زَائِدَةَ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ أَبِي خَالِدٍ عَنْ قَيْسِ بْنِ أَبِي حَازِمٍ قَالَ 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
English Translation
Abu Sa'id ibn Abi Amr informed us from Abu al-Abbas Muhammad ibn Ya'qub, from al-Hasan ibn Ali ibn Affan, from Yahya ibn Adam, from Ibn Abi Za'ida, from Isma'il ibn Abi Khalid, from Qays ibn Abi Hazim who said: We were a quarter of the people on the Day of al-Qadisiyyah, so Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) gave us a quarter of al-Sawad. We held it for three years, then Jarir came as a delegation to Umar after that. He said: By Allah, were it not that I am a distributor who will be held accountable, you would have kept what was divided for you. I think you should return it to the Muslims. He did so, and Umar rewarded him with eighty dinars.
