A man who had committed Ghulūl was brought to him. He asked Sālim about him. He (Sālim) said: 'I heard my father narrating from 'Umar bin Al-Khaṭṭāb that the Prophet ﷺ said: "If you find a man who committed Ghulūl, then burn his goods and beat him." He said: "We found a Mushaf (a copy of the Qur'ān) among his belongings, so we asked Sālim about it. He said: 'Sell it and give its price in charity.'" (Da'if)
