\nNarrated `Ali:\n \n\nI got a she-camel in my share of the war booty on the day (of the battle) of Badr, and the Prophet (ﷺ) had \ngiven me a she-camel from the Khumus. When I intended to marry Fatima, the daughter of Allah's \nApostle, I had an appointment with a goldsmith from the tribe of Bani Qainuqa' to go with me to bring \nIdhkhir (i.e. grass of pleasant smell) and sell it to the goldsmiths and spend its price on my wedding \nparty. I was collecting for my she-camels equipment of saddles, sacks and ropes while my two shecamels \nwere kneeling down beside the room of an Ansari man. I returned after collecting whatever I \ncollected, to see the humps of my two she-camels cut off and their flanks cut open and some portion \nof their livers was taken out. When I saw that state of my two she-camels, I could not help weeping. I \nasked, "Who has done this?" The people replied, "Hamza bin `Abdul Muttalib who is staying with \nsome Ansari drunks in this house." I went away till I reached the Prophet (ﷺ) and Zaid bin Haritha was \nwith him. The Prophet (ﷺ) noticed on my face the effect of what I had suffered, so the Prophet (ﷺ) asked. \n"What is wrong with you." I replied, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! I have never seen such a day as today. \nHamza attacked my two she-camels, cut off their humps, and ripped open their flanks, and he is sitting \nthere in a house in the company of some drunks." The Prophet (ﷺ) then asked for his covering sheet, put it \non, and set out walking followed by me and Zaid bin Haritha till he came to the house where Hamza \nwas. He asked permission to enter, and they allowed him, and they were drunk. Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) started \nrebuking Hamza for what he had done, but Hamza was drunk and his eyes were red. Hamza looked at \nAllah's Messenger (ﷺ) and then he raised his eyes, looking at his knees, then he raised up his eyes looking at \nhis umbilicus, and again he raised up his eyes look in at his face. Hamza then said, "Aren't you but the \nslaves of my father?" Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) realized that he was drunk, so Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) retreated, and we \nwent out with him.\n
\nNarrated `Aisha:\n \n\n(mother of the believers) After the death of Allah 's Apostle Fatima the daughter of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) \nasked Abu Bakr As-Siddiq to give her, her share of inheritance from what Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) had left of \nthe Fai (i.e. booty gained without fighting) which Allah had given him. Abu Bakr said to her, "Allah's \nApostle said, 'Our property will not be inherited, whatever we (i.e. prophets) leave is Sadaqa (to be \nused for charity)." Fatima, the daughter of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) got angry and stopped speaking to Abu \nBakr, and continued assuming that attitude till she died. Fatima remained alive for six months after the \ndeath of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ). \nShe used to ask Abu Bakr for her share from the property of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) which he left at Khaibar, \nand Fadak, and his property at Medina (devoted for charity). Abu Bakr refused to give her that \nproperty and said, "I will not leave anything Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) used to do, because I am afraid that if I \nleft something from the Prophet's tradition, then I would go astray." (Later on) `Umar gave the \nProphet's property (of Sadaqa) at Medina to `Ali and `Abbas, but he withheld the properties of \nKhaibar and Fadak in his custody and said, "These two properties are the Sadaqa which Allah's \nApostle used to use for his expenditures and urgent needs. Now their management is to be entrusted to \nthe ruler." (Az-Zuhri said, "They have been managed in this way till today.")\n
\r\nNarrated Zahdam:\n \r\n\r\nOnce we were in the house of Abu Musa who presented a meal containing cooked chicken. A man \r\nfrom the tribe of Bani Taim Allah with red complexion as if he were from the Byzantine war \r\nprisoners, was present. Abu Musa invited him to share the meal but he (apologised) saying. "I saw \r\nchickens eating dirty things and so I have had a strong aversion to eating them, and have taken an oath \r\nthat I will not eat chickens." Abu Musa said, "Come along, I will tell you about this matter (i.e. how to \r\ncancel one's oath). I went to the Prophet (ﷺ) in the company of a group of Al-Ashariyin, asked him to \r\nprovide us with means of conveyance. He said, 'By Allah, I will not provide you with any means of \r\nconveyance and I have nothing to make you ride on.' Then some camels as booty were brought to \r\nAllah's Messenger (ﷺ) and he asked for us saying. 'Where are the group of Al-Ash`ariyun?' Then he ordered \r\nthat we should be given five camels with white humps. When we set out we said, 'What have we \r\ndone? We will never be blessed (with what we have been given).' So, we returned to the Prophet (ﷺ) and \r\nsaid, 'We asked you to provide us with means of conveyance, but you took an oath that you would not \r\nprovide us with any means of conveyance. Did you forget (your oath when you gave us the camels)? \r\nHe replied. 'I have not provided you with means of conveyance, but Allah has provided you with it, \r\nand by Allah, Allah willing, if ever I take an oath to do something, and later on I find that it is more \r\nbeneficial to do something different, I will do the thing which is better, and give expiation for my \r\noath."\n
\nNarrated Malik bin Aus:\n \n\nWhile I was at home, the sun rose high and it got hot. Suddenly the messenger of `Umar bin Al- \nKhattab came to me and said, "The chief of the believers has sent for you." So, I went along with him \ntill I entered the place where `Umar was sitting on a bedstead made of date-palm leaves and covered \nwith no mattress, and he was leaning over a leather pillow. I greeted him and sat down. He said, "O \nMali! Some persons of your people who have families came to me and I have ordered that a gift \nshould be given to them, so take it and distribute it among them." I said, "O chief of the believers! I \nwish that you order someone else to do it." He said, "O man! Take it." While I was sitting there with \nhim, his doorman Yarfa' came saying, "`Uthman, `Abdur-Rahman bin `Auf, Az-Zubair and Sa`d bin \nAbi Waqqas are asking your permission (to see you); may I admit them?" \n`Umar said, "Yes", So they were admitted and they came in, greeted him, and sat down. After a while \nYarfa' came again and said, "May I admit `Ali and `Abbas?" `Umar said, "yes." So, they were \nadmitted and they came in and greeted (him) and sat down. Then `Abbas said, "O chief of the \nbelievers! Judge between me and this (i.e. `Ali)." They had a dispute regarding the property of Bani \nAn-Nadir which Allah had given to His Apostle as Fai. The group (i.e. `Uthman and his companions) \nsaid, "O chief of the believers! Judge between them and relieve both of them front each other." `Umar \nsaid, "Be patient! I beseech you by Allah by Whose Permission the Heaven and the Earth exist, do \nyou know that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, 'Our (i.e. prophets') property will not be inherited, and whatever \nwe leave, is Sadaqa (to be used for charity),' and Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) meant himself (by saying "we'')?" \nThe group said, "He said so." `Umar then turned to `Ali and `Abbas and said, "I beseech you by Allah, \ndo you know that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said so?" They replied, " He said so." `Umar then said, "So, I will \ntalk to you about this matter. Allah bestowed on His Apostle with a special favor of something of this \nFai (booty) which he gave to nobody else." `Umar then recited the Holy Verses: "What Allah \nbestowed as (Fai) Booty on his Apostle (Muhammad) from them --- for this you made no expedition \nwith either cavalry or camelry: But Allah gives power to His Apostles over whomever He will 'And \nAllah is able to do all things." 9:6) \n`Umar added "So this property was especially given to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ), but, by Allah, neither did he \ntake possession of it and leave your, nor did he favor himself with it to your exclusion, but he gave it \nto all of you and distributed it amongst you till this property remained out of it. Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) used \nto spend the yearly expenses of his family out of this property and used to keep the rest of its revenue \nto be spent on Allah 's Cause. Allah 's Apostle kept on doing this during all his lifetime. I ask you by \nAllah do you know this?" They replies in the affirmative. `Umar then said to `Ali and `Abbas. "I ask \nyou by Allah, do you know this?" `Umar added, "When Allah had taken His Prophet unto Him, 'Abu \nBakr said, 'I am the successor of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) so, Abu Bakr took over that property and managed it \nin the same way as Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) used to do, and Allah knows that he was true, pious and rightlyguided, \nand he was a follower of what was right. \nThen Allah took Abu Bakr unto Him and I became Abu Bakr's successor, and I kept that property in \nmy possession for the first two years of my Caliphate, managing it in the same way as Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) \nused to do and as Abu Bakr used to do, and Allah knows that I have been true, pious, rightly guided, \nand a follower of what is right. Now you both (i.e. 'Ah and `Abbas) came to talk to me, bearing the \nsame claim and presenting the same case; you, `Abbas, came to me asking for your share from your \nnephew's property, and this man, i.e. `Ali, came to me asking for his wife's share from her father's \nproperty. I told you both that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, 'Our (prophets') properties are not to be inherited, \nbut what we leave is Sadaqa (to be used for charity).' \nWhen I thought it right that I should hand over this property to you, I said to you, 'I am ready to hand \nover this property to you if you wish, on the condition that you would take Allah's Pledge and \nConvention that you would manage it in the same way as Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) used to, and as Abu Bakr \nused to do, and as I have done since I was in charge of it.' So, both of you said (to me), 'Hand it over \nto us,' and on that condition I handed it over to you. So, I ask you by Allah, did I hand it over to them \non this condition?" The group aid, "Yes." Then `Umar faced `Ali and `Abbas saying, "I ask you by \nAllah, did I hand it over to you on this condition?" They said, "Yes. " He said, " Do you want now to \ngive a different decision? By Allah, by Whose Leave both the Heaven and the Earth exist, I will never \ngive any decision other than that (I have already given). And if you are unable to manage it, then \nreturn it to me, and I will do the job on your behalf."\n
\nNarrated Marwan bin Al-Hakim and Miswar bin Makhrama:\n \n\nWhen the Hawazin delegation came to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) after they had embraced Islam and requested \nhim to return their properties and war prisoners to them, Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "To me the best talk is \nthe truest, so you may choose either of two things; the war prisoners or the wealth, for I have delayed \ntheir distribution." Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) had waited for them for over ten days when he returned from Ta'if. \nSo, when those people came to know that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) was not going to return to them except one \nof the two things the said, "We choose our war Prisoners 'Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) stood up amongst the \nMuslims, and after glorifying Allah as He deserved, he said, "Now then, these brothers of yours have \ncome to us with repentance, and I see it logical that I should return their captives to them, so whoever \nof you likes to do that as a favor then he can do it, and whoever amongst you likes to stick to his \nshare, let him give up his prisoners and we will compensate him from the very first Fai' (i.e. war booty \nreceived without fight) which Allah will give us." On that, all the people said. 'O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)s We \nhave agreed willingly to do so (return the captives)" Then Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said to them "I do not know \nwho amongst you has agreed to this and who has not. You should return and let your leaders inform \nme of your agreement." The people returned and their leaders spoke to them, and then came to Allah's \nApostle and said, "All the people have agreed willingly to do so and have given the permission to \nreturn the war prisoners (without Compensation)" (Az-Zuhri, the sub-narrator states) This is what has \nbeen related to us about the captives of Hawazin.\n
\nNarrated Jabir:\n \n\nAllah's Messenger (ﷺ) said (to me), "If the property of Bahrain had come to us, I would have given you so \nmuch and so much." But the Bahrain property did not come till the Prophet (ﷺ) had died. When the \nBahrain property came. Abu Bakr ordered somebody to announce, "Any person who has money claim \non Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) or whom Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) had promised something, should come to us." So, I went \nto him and said, "Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) had promised to give me so much an so much." Abu Bakr scooped \nup money with both hands thrice for me." (The sub-narrator Sufyan illustrated this action by scooping \nup with both hands and said, "Ibn Munkadir, another sub-narrator, used to illustrate it in this way.") \nNarrated Jabir: Once I went to Abu Bakr and asked for the money but he did not give me, and I went \nto him again, but he did not give me, so I went to him for the third time and said, "I asked you, but \nyou did not give me; then I asked you (for the second time) and you did not give me; then I asked you \n(for the third time) but you did not give me. You should either give me or allow yourself to be \nconsidered a miser regarding my case." Abu Bakr said, "You tell me that I am a miser with regard to \nyou. But really, whenever I rejected your request, I had the inclination to give you." \n(In another narration Jabir added:) So, Abu Bakr scooped up money with both hands for me and asked \nme to count it. I found out that It was five hundred. Abu Bakr told me to take twice that amount.\n
\nNarrated Anas bin Malik:\n \n\nWhen Allah favored His Apostle with the properties of Hawazin tribe as Fai (booty), he started giving \nto some Quarries men even up to one-hundred camels each, whereupon some Ansari men said about \nAllah's Messenger (ﷺ), "May Allah forgive His Apostle! He is giving to (men of) Quraish and leaves us, in \nspite of the fact that our swords are still dropping blood (of the infidels)" When Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) was \ninformed of what they had said, he called the Ansar and gathered them in a leather tent and did not \ncall anybody else along, with them. When they gathered, Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) came to them and said, \n"What is the statement which, I have been informed, and that which you have said?" The learned ones \namong them replied," O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! The wise ones amongst us did not say anything, but the \nyoungsters amongst us said, 'May Allah forgive His Apostle; he gives the Quarish and leaves the \nAnsar, in spite of the fact that our swords are still dribbling (wet) with the blood of the infidels.' " \nAllah's Messenger (ﷺ) replied, I give to such people as are still close to the period of Infidelity (i.e. they have \nrecently embraced Islam and Faith is still weak in their hearts). Won't you be pleased to see people go \nwith fortune, while you return with Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) to your houses? By Allah, what you will return \nwith, is better than what they are returning with." The Ansar replied, "Yes, O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ), we are \nsatisfied' Then the Prophet (ﷺ) said to them." You will find after me, others being preferred to you. Then \nbe patient till you meet Allah and meet His Apostle at Al-Kauthar (i.e. a fount in Paradise)." (Anas \nadded:) But we did not remain patient.\n
\nNarrated Abu Huraira:\n \n\nThe Prophet (ﷺ) said, "A prophet amongst the prophets carried out a holy military expedition, so he said \nto his followers, 'Anyone who has married a woman and wants to consummate the marriage, and has \nnot done so yet, should not accompany me; nor should a man who has built a house but has not \ncompleted its roof; nor a man who has sheep or shecamels and is waiting for the birth of their young \nones.' So, the prophet carried out the expedition and when he reached that town at the time or nearly at \nthe time of the `Asr prayer, he said to the sun, 'O sun! You are under Allah's Order and I am under \nAllah's Order O Allah! Stop it (i.e. the sun) from setting.' It was stopped till Allah made him \nvictorious. \nThen he collected the booty and the fire came to burn it, but it did not burn it. He said (to his men), \n'Some of you have stolen something from the booty. So one man from every tribe should give me a \npledge of allegiance by shaking hands with me.' (They did so and) the hand of a man got stuck over \nthe hand of their prophet. Then that prophet said (to the man), 'The theft has been committed by your \npeople. So all the persons of your tribe should give me the pledge of allegiance by shaking hands with \nme.' The hands of two or three men got stuck over the hand of their prophet and he said, "You have \ncommitted the theft.' Then they brought a head of gold like the head of a cow and put it there, and the \nfire came and consumed the booty. The Prophet (ﷺ) added: Then Allah saw our weakness and disability, \nso he made booty legal for us."\n
\nNarrated `Abdullah bin Az-Zubair:\n \n\nWhen Az-Zubair got up during the battle of Al-Jamal, he called me and I stood up beside him, and he \nsaid to me, "O my son! Today one will be killed either as an oppressor or as an oppressed one. I see \nthat I will be killed as an oppressed one. My biggest worry is my debts. Do you think, if we pay the \ndebts, there will be something left for us from our money?" Az-Zubair added, "O my son! Sell our \nproperty and pay my debts." Az-Zubair then willed one-third of his property and willed one-third of \nthat portion to his sons; namely, `Abdullah's sons. He said, "One-third of the one third. If any property \nis left after the payment of the debts, one-third (of the one-third of what is left) is to be given to your \nsons." (Hisham, a sub-narrator added, "Some of the sons of `Abdullah were equal in age to the sons of \nAz-Zubair e.g. Khubaib and `Abbas. `Abdullah had nine sons and nine daughters at that time." (The \nnarrator `Abdullah added:) My father (Az-Zubair) went on drawing my attention to his debts saying, \n"If you should fail to pay part of the debts, appeal to my Master to help you." By Allah! I could not \nunderstand what he meant till I asked, "O father! Who is your Master?" He replied, "Allah (is my \nMaster)." \nBy Allah, whenever I had any difficulty regarding his debts, I would say, "Master of Az-Zubair! Pay \nhis debts on his behalf ." and Allah would (help me to) pay it. Az-Zubair was martyred leaving no \nDinar or Dirham but two pieces of land, one of which was (called) Al-Ghaba, and eleven houses in \nMedina, two in Basra, one in Kufa and one in Egypt. In fact, the source of the debt which he owed \nwas, that if somebody brought some money to deposit with him. Az-Zubair would say, "No, (i won't \nkeep it as a trust), but I take it as a debt, for I am afraid it might be lost." Az-Zubair was never \nappointed governor or collector of the tax of Kharaj or any other similar thing, but he collected his \nwealth (from the war booty he gained) during the holy battles he took part in, in the company of the \nProphet, Abu Bakr, `Umar, and `Uthman. (`Abdullah bin Az-Zubair added:) When I counted his debt, \nit turned to be two million and two hundred thousand. (The sub-narrator added:) Hakim bin Hizam \nmet `Abdullah bin Zubair and asked, "O my nephew! How much is the debt of my brother?" \n`Abdullah kept it as a secret and said, "One hundred thousand," Hakim said, "By Allah! I don't think \nyour property will cover it." On that `Abdullah said to him, "What if it is two million and two hundred \nthousand?" \nHakim said, "I don't think you can pay it; so if you are unable to pay all of it, I will help you." Az- \nZubair had already bought Al-Ghaba for one hundred and seventy thousand. `Abdullah sold it for one \nmillion and six hundred thousand. Then he called the people saying, "Any person who has any money \nclaim on Az-Zubair should come to us in Al-Ghaba." There came to him `Abdullah bin Ja`far whom \nAz-Zubair owed four hundred thousand. He said to `Abdullah bin Az-Zubair, "If you wish I will \nforgive you the debt." `Abdullah (bin Az-Zubair) said, "No." Then Ibn Ja`far said, "If you wish you \ncan defer the payment if you should defer the payment of any debt." Ibn Az-Zubair said, "No." \n`Abdullah bin Ja`far said, "Give me a piece of the land." `Abdullah bin AzZubair said (to him), \n"Yours is the land extending from this place to this place." So, `Abdullah bin Az-Zubair sold some of \nthe property (including the houses) and paid his debt perfectly, retaining four and a half shares from \nthe land (i.e. Al-Ghaba). He then went to Mu'awlya while `Amr bin `Uthman, Al-Mundhir bin Az- \nZubair and Ibn Zam`a were sitting with him. Mu'awiya asked, "At what price have you appraised Al- \nGhaba?" He said, "One hundred thousand for each share," Muawiya asked, "How many shares have \nbeen left?" `Abdullah replied, "Four and a half shares." \nAl-Mundhir bin Az-Zubair said, "I would like to buy one share for one hundred thousand." `Amr bin \n`Uthman said, "I would like to buy one share for one hundred thousand." Ibn Zam`a said, "I would \nlike to buy one share for one hundred thousand." Muawiya said, "How much is left now?" `Abdullah \nreplied, "One share and a half." Muawiya said, "I would like to buy it for one hundred and fifty \nthousand." `Abdullah also sold his part to Muawiya six hundred thousand. When Ibn AzZubair had \npaid all the debts. Az-Zubair's sons said to him, "Distribute our inheritance among us." He said, "No, \nby Allah, I will not distribute it among you till I announce in four successive Hajj seasons, 'Would \nthose who have money claims on Az-Zubair come so that we may pay them their debt." So, he started \nto announce that in public in every Hajj season, and when four years had elapsed, he distributed the \ninheritance among the inheritors. Az-Zubair had four wives, and after the one-third of his property \nwas excluded (according to the will), each of his wives received one million and two hundred \nthousand. So the total amount of his property was fifty million and two hundred thousand.\n
\nNarrated Abu Qatada:\n \n\nWe set out in the company of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) on the day (of the battle) of Hunain. When we faced the \nenemy, the Muslims retreated and I saw a pagan throwing himself over a Muslim. I turned around and \ncame upon him from behind and hit him on the shoulder with the sword He (i.e. the pagan) came \ntowards me and seized me so violently that I felt as if it were death itself, but death overtook him and \nhe released me. I followed `Umar bin Al Khattab and asked (him), "What is wrong with the people \n(fleeing)?" He replied, "This is the Will of Allah," After the people returned, the Prophet (ﷺ) sat and said, \n"Anyone who has killed an enemy and has a proof of that, will posses his spoils." I got up and said, \n"Who will be a witness for me?" and then sat down. The Prophet (ﷺ) again said, "Anyone who has killed \nan enemy and has proof of that, will possess his spoils." I (again) got up and said, "Who will be a \nwitness for me?" and sat down. Then the Prophet (ﷺ) said the same for the third time. I again got up, and \nAllah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "O Abu Qatada! What is your story?" Then I narrated the whole story to him. A \nman (got up and) said, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! He is speaking the truth, and the spoils of the killed man \nare with me. So please compensate him on my behalf." On that Abu Bakr As-Siddiq said, "No, by \nAllah, he (i.e. Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) ) will not agree to give you the spoils gained by one of Allah's Lions \nwho fights on the behalf of Allah and His Apostle." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Abu Bakr has spoken the \ntruth." So, Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) gave the spoils to me. I sold that armor (i.e. the spoils) and with its price I \nbought a garden at Bani Salima, and this was my first property which I gained after my conversion to \nIslam.\n
