وعن هشام بن حكيم بن حزام رضي الله عنه أنه مر بالشام على أناس من الأنباط، وقد أقيموا في الشمس، وصُب على رءوسهم الزيت فقال: ما هذا؟ يُعذبون في الخراج وفي رواية: حُبسوا في الجزية. فقال هشام: أشهد لسمعت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يقول: "إن الله يعذب الذين يعذبون الناس في الدنيا" فدخل على الأمير، فحدثه، فأمر بهم فخلوا" ((رواه مسلم. "الأنباط" الفلاحون من العجم)).
On the authority of Hisham bin Hakim bin Hizam, may God be pleased with him, he passed through the Levant and saw people from the Nabataeans, who were standing in the sun, and oil was poured on their heads. He said: What is this? They are being tortured for the tax, and in one narration: They were imprisoned for the jizyah. Hisham said: I bear witness that I heard the Messenger of God, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, say: “God punishes those who torture people in this world.” So he entered upon the prince, So he spoke to him, and he ordered them to leave.” ((Narrated by Muslim. “Nabataeans” are farmers from the Persians)).
