Sahih al-Bukhari 2225 (Book 40, Hadith 13)

Narrated `Amr: Concerning the Waqf of `Umar: It was not sinful of the trustee (of the Waqf) to eat or provide his
friends from it, provided the trustee had no intention of collecting fortune (for himself). Ibn `Umar
was the manager of the trust of `Umar and he used to give presents from it to those with whom he
used to stay at Mecca.

حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ عَمْرٍو، قَالَ فِي صَدَقَةِ عُمَرَ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ لَيْسَ عَلَى الْوَلِيِّ جُنَاحٌ أَنْ يَأْكُلَ وَيُؤْكِلَ صَدِيقًا ‏{‏لَهُ‏}‏ غَيْرَ مُتَأَثِّلٍ مَالاً، فَكَانَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ هُوَ يَلِي صَدَقَةَ عُمَرَ يُهْدِي لِلنَّاسِ مِنْ أَهْلِ مَكَّةَ، كَانَ يَنْزِلُ عَلَيْهِمْ‏.‏
