It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) granted Sayyiduna Zubair (may Allah be pleased with him) a piece of land called Sharir as a fief: "And the manner was that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) mounted a swift horse and made it run, then stopped at a place, threw his whip, and said: 'Give Sayyiduna Zubair (may Allah be pleased with him) the land up to where this whip has reached.'"
