حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَدْرٍ عَبَّادُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَتَّابٍ حَدَّثَنِي إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ عَطَائٍ مَوْلَی عِمْرَانَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي أَنَّ عِمْرَانَ بْنَ الْحُصَيْنِ اسْتُعْمِلَ عَلَی الصَّدَقَةِ فَلَمَّا رَجَعَ قِيلَ لَهُ أَيْنَ الْمَالُ قَالَ وَلِلْمَالِ أَرْسَلْتَنِي أَخَذْنَاهُ مِنْ حَيْثُ کُنَّا نَأْخُذُهُ عَلَی عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَوَضَعْنَاهُ حَيْثُ کُنَّا نَضَعُهُ
ابن ماجہ · Hadith 1811
Ibrahim bin 'Ata', the freed slave of 'Imran bin Husain, said: "My father told me that Imran bin Husain was appointed to collect the Sadaqah. When he came back, it was said to him: 'Where is the wealth?' He said: 'Was it for wealth that you sent me? We took it from where we used to take it at the time of the Messenger of Allah P.B.U.H, and we distributed it where we used to distribute it.' "(Hasan)
