Narrated 'Abdullah bin As-Sa'di: That when he went to 'Umar during his Caliphate. 'Umar said to him, "Haven't I been told that you do certain jobs for the people but when you are given payment you refuse to take it?" 'Abdullah added: I said, "Yes." 'Umar said, "Why do you do so?" I said, "I have horses and slaves and I am living in prosperity and I wish that my payment should be kept as a charitable gift for the Muslims." 'Umar said, "Do not do so, for I intended to do the same as you do. Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) used to give me gifts and I used to say to him, 'Give it to a more needy one than me.' Once he gave me some money and I said, 'Give it to a more needy person than me,' whereupon the Prophet (ﷺ) said, 'Take it and keep it in your possession and then give it in charity. Take what ever comes to you of this money if you are not keen to have it and not asking for it; otherwise (i.e., if it does not come to you) do not seek to have it yourself
حدثنا ابو اليمان، اخبرنا شعيب، عن الزهري، اخبرني السايب بن يزيد ابن اخت، نمر ان حويطب بن عبد العزى، اخبره ان عبد الله بن السعدي اخبره انه، قدم على عمر في خلافته فقال له عمر الم احدث انك تلي من اعمال الناس اعمالا، فاذا اعطيت العمالة كرهتها. فقلت بلى. فقال عمر ما تريد الى ذلك قلت ان لي افراسا واعبدا، وانا بخير، واريد ان تكون عمالتي صدقة على المسلمين. قال عمر لا تفعل فاني كنت اردت الذي اردت فكان رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يعطيني العطاء فاقول اعطه افقر اليه مني. حتى اعطاني مرة مالا فقلت اعطه افقر اليه مني. فقال النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم " خذه فتموله وتصدق به، فما جاءك من هذا المال وانت غير مشرف ولا سايل فخذه، والا فلا تتبعه نفسك
