The same hadith has been narrated by a different chain of transmitters with a slight variation in wording: Umar bin al-Khattab sent for me and said: Some families from your tribe have come to me (then follows the foregoing hadith) by Malik with the difference that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ would spend on his family for a year. And sometimes Mamar said: He would retain sustenance for his family for a year, and what was left of that he spent in the cause of Allah, the Majestic and Exalted.
