1571. Mālik bin Anas explained the statement of ‘Umar bin Al-Khaṭṭāb, May Allāh be pleased with him: “And different (flocks) should not be joined together, nor should a combined (flock) be separated for fear of giving (extra) charity,” — as follows: “This is as, for example, when each person (in a company of three) has forty sheep, and when the collector is about to come, they combine them all together, in which case there will only be one sheep due. And a case of when a combined flock is separated is when two partners each own one-hundred and one sheep, so the total due on them would be three sheep, but when the collector comes, they divide the flock among themselves, such that each one of them only owes one sheep. And this (explanation) is what I have heard regarding it.” (Sahīh)

Arabic text

1571 - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ، قَالَ: قَالَ مَالِكٌ: " وَقَوْلُ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ: لَا يُجْمَعُ بَيْنَ مُتَفَرِّقٍ، وَلَا يُفَرَّقُ بَيْنَ مُجْتَمِعٍ، هُوَ أَنْ يَكُونَ لِكُلِّ رَجُلٍ أَرْبَعُونَ شَاةً، فَإِذَا أَظَلَّهُمُ الْمُصَدِّقُ جَمَعُوهَا، لِئَلَّا يَكُونَ فِيهَا إِلَّا شَاةٌ. وَلَا يُفَرَّقُ بَيْنَ مُجْتَمِعٍ، أَنَّ الْخَلِيطَيْنِ إِذَا كَانَ لِكُلِّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمَا مِائَةُ شَاةٍ وَشَاةٌ، فَيَكُونُ عَلَيْهِمَا فِيهَا ثَلَاثُ شِيَاهٍ، فَإِذَا أَظَلَّهُمَا الْمُصَدِّقُ فَرَّقَا غَنَمَهُمَا، فَلَمْ يَكُنْ عَلَى كُلِّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمَا إِلَّا شَاةٌ، فَهَذَا الَّذِي سَمِعْتُ فِي ذَلِكَ "
