حَدَّثَنَا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَائِذٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا عِيسَى بْنُ يُونُسَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنِي فِيمَا حَدَّثَهُ ابْنٌ لِعَدِيِّ بْنِ عَدِيٍّ الْكِنْدِيِّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَنَّ عُمَرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏كَتَبَ إِنَّ مَنْ سَأَلَ عَنْ مَوَاضِعِ الْفَيْءِ فَهُوَ مَا حَكَمَ فِيهِ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ فَرَآهُ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ عَدْلًا مُوَافِقًا لِقَوْلِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ جَعَلَ اللَّهُ الْحَقَّ عَلَى لِسَانِ عُمَرَ وَقَلْبِهِ فَرَضَ الْأَعْطِيَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَعَقَدَ لِأَهْلِ الأَدْيَانِ ذِمَّةً بِمَا فُرَضَ عَلَيْهِمْ مِنَ الْجِزْيَةِ لَمْ يَضْرِبْ فِيهَا بِخُمُسٍ وَلَا مَغْنَمٍ.

Umar bin Abdul Aziz wrote (to his governors): If anyone asks about the places where spoils (fay) should be spent, that should be done in accordance with the decision made by Umar Ibn al-Khattab (رضی اللہ عنہ). The believers considered him to be just, according to the saying of the Prophet صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم: Allah has placed truth upon Umar's tongue and heart. He fixed stipends for Muslims, and provided protection for the people of other religions by levying jizyah (poll-tax) on them, deducting no fifth from it, nor taking it as booty.
