Hadith 13:2147

Abu Bakr narrated to us, he said: Hushaym narrated to us, from Isma'il ibn Salim, he said: I witnessed al-Qasim ibn 'Abd al-Rahman, and a man—one of the governors of al-Hajjaj—disputed before him, for he had usurped food that belonged to him. Al-Qasim asked him for evidence, so he brought his evidence, and they testified that he had taken food belonging to him from his houses. Al-Qasim said to them: "How much do you inform me is the measure of the food that was taken?"

حدثنا أبو بكر قال حدثنا هشيم عن إسماعيل بن سالم قال شهدت القاسم بن عبد الرحمن وخاصم إليه رجل عامل من عمال الحجاج غصبه طعاما كان له فسأله القاسم البينة فجاء بينته فشهدوا أنه أخذ طعاما له من بيوته فقال لهم القاسم كم تخبروني بكيل ما أخذ من الطعام
