حَدَّثَنَا عَبَّاسُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَظِيمِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي بُكَيْرٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ الرَّازِيُّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ مُطَرِّفٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ سَمِعْتُ عَلِيًا يَقُولُ:‏‏‏‏ وَلَّانِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ خُمُسَ الْخُمُسِ فَوَضَعْتُهُ مَوَاضِعَهُ حَيَاةَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَحَيَاةَ أَبِي بَكْرٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَحَيَاةَ عُمَرَ فَأُتِيَ بِمَالٍ فَدَعَانِي، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ خُذْهُ فَقُلْتُ:‏‏‏‏ لَا أُرِيدُهُ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ خُذْهُ فَأَنْتُمْ أَحَقُّ بِهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قُلْتُ قَدِ اسْتَغْنَيْنَا عَنْهُ فَجَعَلَهُ فِي بَيْتِ الْمَالِ..

I heard Ali رضی اللہ عنہ say: The Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم assigned me the fifth (of the booty). I spent it on its beneficiaries during the lifetime of the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم and Abu Bakr and of Umar رضی اللہ عنہما . Some property was brought to him (Umar رضی اللہ عنہ) and he called me and said: Take it. I said: I did not want it. He said: Take it ; you have right to it. I said: We do not need it. So he deposited in the government treasury.
