(2) Al-Bukhari, Sahih, 13/133 (Book of Rulings, chapter: The remuneration of judges and those in authority), from the chain: Abū al-Yaman – Shu‘ayb – al-Zuhri, who said: “Sa’ib b. Yazid b. Ukht Namir informed me that Huyaytib b. ‘Abd al-‘Uzza told him that ‘Abd Allah b. al-Sa‘di told him: He came to ‘Umar during his caliphate. ‘Umar said to him, ‘Has it not reached me that you undertake public duties and, when the allowance is given to you, you dislike it?’ He replied, ‘Indeed.’ ‘Umar asked, ‘Why do you do that?’ He answered, ‘I possess horses and servants and am well-off, and I want my stipend to count as charity for the Muslims.’ ‘Umar said, ‘Do not do that. I once intended the same. The Messenger of Allah used to give me money and I would say, “Give it to someone poorer than I.” Then one day he gave me some wealth and I repeated, “Give it to someone poorer than I,” so the Prophet said, “Take it, invest it for yourself and give charity from it. Whatever of this wealth comes to you without your seeking it or being eager for it, then accept it; otherwise, do not let your soul pursue it.”’ ” A noteworthy feature of this chain is that al-Zuhri transmits the report consecutively from four Companions: al-Sa’ib, Huyaytib, Ibn al-Sa‘di, and ‘Umar.
