Sunan an-Nasa'i 3597

Ishaq ibn Ibrahim reported to us: Abu Dawud al-Hafari—'Umar ibn Sa'd—from Sufyan ath-Thawri, from Ibn 'Awn, from Nafi', from Ibn 'Umar, from 'Umar, who said: I acquired some land at Khaybar and came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). I said, ‘I have acquired land, and I have never acquired wealth dearer or more precious to me than it.’ He said, ‘If you wish, you may give it in charity.’ So he gave it in charity, stipulating that it was not to be sold or given away, and that it be used for the poor, relatives, the emancipation of slaves, guests, and travelers. There is no blame on its administrator if he eats from it reasonably, without amassing wealth, and feeds others.
