2773. Narrated Ibn 'Umar: رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ 'Umar got some property in Khaibar and he came to the Prophet ﷺ and informed him about it. The Prophet ﷺ said to him, "If you wish you can give it in charity." So, 'Umar gave it in charity (i.e., as an endowment) the yield of which was to be used for the good of the Al-Fuqarā (the poor), Al-Masākīn (the poor), the kinsmen, and the guests.
2773 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ عَوْنٍ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، أَنَّ عُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ وَجَدَ مَالًا بِخَيْبَرَ، فَأَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَأَخْبَرَهُ قَالَ: «إِنْ شِئْتَ تَصَدَّقْتَ بِهَا»، فَتَصَدَّقَ بِهَا فِي الفُقَرَاءِ وَالمَسَاكِينِ وَذِي القُرْبَى وَالضَّيْفِ
