سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 2878
Narrated Ibn Umar: Umar got some land in Khaibar, and when to the Prophet ﷺ and said: I have acquired land in Khaibar which I consider to be more valuable than any I have acquired ; so what do you command me to do with it ? He replied: If you wish, you may make the property as inalienable possession, and give its produce as sadaqah (charity). So Umar gave it as a sadaqah declaring that the property must not be sold, given away, or inherited: (and gave its produce as sadaqah to be devoted) to poor, relatives, the emancipation of slaves, Allah's path, travellers. The narrator Bishr added: "and guests". Then the agreed version goes: No sin being committed by the one who administers it if he eats something from it in a reasonable manner, or gives something to a friend, who does not make his own property. The narrator Bishr added: " (provided) he is not storing-up goods (for himself)".
