حَدَّثَنَا بَكْرُ بْنُ عِيسَى، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ، عَنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ، عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ، عَنْ عَدِيِّ بْنِ حَاتِمٍ، قَالَ: أَتَيْتُ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ فِي أُنَاسٍ مِنْ قَوْمِي، فَجَعَلَ يَفْرِضُ لِلرَّجُلِ مِنْ طَيِّئٍ فِي أَلْفَيْنِ وَيُعْرِضُ عَنِّي، قَالَ: فَاسْتَقْبَلْتُهُ، فَأَعْرَضَ عَنِّي، ثُمَّ أَتَيْتُهُ مِنْ حِيَالِ وَجْهِهِ فَأَعْرَضَ عَنِّي، قَالَ: فَقُلْتُ: يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ، أَتَعْرِفُنِي؟ قَالَ: فَضَحِكَ حَتَّى اسْتَلْقَى لِقَفَاهُ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: نَعَمْ وَاللهِ إِنِّي لَأَعْرِفُكَ، آمَنْتَ إِذْ كَفَرُوا، وَأَقْبَلْتَ إِذْ أَدْبَرُوا،، ، وَوَفَيْتَ إِذْ غَدَرُوا، وَإِنَّ أَوَّلَ صَدَقَةٍ بَيَّضَتْ وَجْهَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَوُجُوهَ أَصْحَابِهِ صَدَقَةُ طَيِّئٍ (١) ؛ جِئْتَ بِهَا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ثُمَّ أَخَذَ يَعْتَذِرُ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: إِنَّمَا فَرَضْتُ لِقَوْمٍ أَجْحَفَتْ بِهِمُ الْفَاقَةُ، وَهُمْ سَادَةُ عَشَائِرِهِمْ، لِمَا يَنُوبُهُمْ مِنَ الْحُقُوقِ (٢) .،

It was narrated that `Adi bin Hatim said:

I came to Umar bin al Khattab with some of my people and he starting giving to each man of Tayy two thousand, and he ignored me, I tried to come in front of him and he turned away from me, then I came from the direction he was facing and he turned away from me. Then I said: O Ameer al-Mu`mineen, do you recognize me? He smiled and leaned backwards, then he said: Yes, by Allah! I know that you believed when they disbelieved, and you came when they turned away, and you remained loyal when they betrayed. The first sadaqah (zakah) that brightened the face of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and the faces of his Companions was the sadaqah of Tayy that you brought to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) Then he began to apologize, then he said: I am only giving to people who are extremely poor and they are the leaders of their tribes and have responsibilities.
