Historical Usage
Al-Bukhari narrated that Imam Ali ibn Abu Talib said, 'Once Umar ibn Al-Khattab sent Syakib ibn Abdullah Al-Hadidi to the people of Sijistan (present day Iran). He stayed there for some time, then returned to Medina and found Umar making the Hajj pilgrimage. Syakib informed Umar about the people of Sijistan and their conditions. Umar was pleased with his report and gave him a present, after which Syakib set out once again to Sijistan.'
