Usaid bin Zubair Al-Ansari, who was one of Banu Harithah narrated that there was the governor of Al-Yamamah, and Marwan wrote to him saying that Hadrat Mu'awiyah had written to him, saying that any man who had something stolen from him had more right to it wherever he found it. Then Marwan wrote saying that to me (Usaid). I wrote to Marwan saying that the Noble Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) had ruled that if the one who bought it from the one who stole it is ot guilty of anything (and did not realize that it was stolen goods), then the owner has the choice: If he wishes, he may buy it from the one who bought it from the thief, or if he wishes he may go after the thief. Hadrat Abu Bakr, 'Umar and Hadrat 'Uthman also passed judgment along these lines. Marwan sent my letter to Hadrat Mu'awiyah, and Hadrat Mu'awiyah wrote to Marwan (saying): 'Neither you nor Usaid are in a position to tell me what to do, rather I am the one who tells you what to do because I am superior in rank to you, so do what I tell you.' Marwan sent the letter of Hadrat Mu'awiyah to me, and I said: I will not judge according to Hadrat Mu'awiyah's opinion as long as I am the governor
