حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ الْقُرَشِيُّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَهَارُونُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ الزُّبَيْرِ حَدَّثَهُمْ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا فَرَجُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنِي عَمِّي ثَابِتُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَبِيهِ سَعِيدٍ يَعْنِي ابْنَ أَبْيَضَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ جَدِّهِ أَبْيَضَ بْنِ حَمَّالٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَنَّهُ كَلَّمَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي الصَّدَقَةِ حِينَ وَفَدَ عَلَيْهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ يَا أَخَا سَبَأٍ لَابُدَّ مِنْ صَدَقَةٍ ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ إِنَّمَا زَرَعْنَا الْقُطْنَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَقَدْ تَبَدَّدَتْ سَبَأٌ وَلَمْ يَبْقَ مِنْهُمْ إِلَّا قَلِيلٌ بِمَأْرِبَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَصَالَحَ نَبِيُّ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَى سَبْعِينَ حُلَّةً بَزٍّ مِنْ قِيمَةِ وَفَاءِ بَزِّ الْمَعَافِرِ كُلَّ سَنَةٍ عَمَّنْ بَقِيَ مِنْ سَبَأٍ بِمَأْرِبَ فَلَمْ يَزَالُوا يَؤُدُّونَهَا حَتَّى قُبِضَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَإِنَّ الْعُمَّالَ انْتَقَضُوا عَلَيْهِمْ بَعْدَ قَبْضِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِيمَا صَالَحَ أَبْيَضُ بْنُ حَمَّالٍ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي الْحُلَلِ السَّبْعِينَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَرَدَّ ذَلِكَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ عَلَى مَا وَضَعَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَتَّى مَاتَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَلَمَّا مَاتَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ انْتَقَضَ ذَلِكَ وَصَارَتْ عَلَى الصَّدَقَةِ.

Abyad spoke to the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم about sadaqah when he came along with a deputation to him. He replied: O brother of Saba', sadaqah is unavoidable. He said: We cultivated cotton, Messenger of Allah. The people of Saba' scattered, and there remained only a few at Ma'arib. He therefore concluded a treaty of peace with the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم to give seventy suits of cloth, equivalent to the price of the Yemeni garments known as al-mu'afir, to be paid every year on behalf of those people of Saba' who remained at Ma'arib. They continued to pay them till the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم died. The governors after the death of the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم broke the treaty concluded by Abyad by Hammal with the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم to give seventy suits of garments. Abu Bakr then revived it as the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم had done till Abu Bakr رضی اللہ عنہ died. When Abu Bakr رضی اللہ عنہ died, it was discontinued and the sadaqah was levied.
