I went out (on a mercantile venture) during the period (of truce) between me and the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). While I was in Syria, the letter of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was handed over to Hiraql (Ceasar), the Emperor of Rome (who was on a visit to Jerusalem at that time). The letter was brought by Dihya Kalbi who delivered it to the governor of Busra The governor passed it on to Hiraql, (On receiving the letter), he said: Is there anyone from the people of this man who thinks that he is a prophet. People said: Yes. So, I was called along with a few others from the Quraish. We were admitted to Hiraql and he seated usbefore him. He asked: Which of you has closer kinship with the man who thinks that he is a prophet? Abu Sufyan said: I. So they seated me in front of him and stated my companions behind me. Then, he called his interpreter and said to him: Tell them that I am going to ask this fellow (i. e. Abu Sufyan) about the man who thinks that he is a prophet. It he tells me a lie, then refute him.
Abu Sufyan told (the narrator): By God, if there was not the fear that falsehood would be imputed to me I would have lied. (Then) Hiraqi said to his interpreter: Inquire from him about his ancestry, I said: He is of good ancestry among us. He asked: Has there been a king among his ancestors? I said: No. He asked: Did you accuse him of falsehood before he proclaimed his prophethood? I said: No. He asked: Who are his follower people of high status or low status? I said: (They are) of low status. He asked: Are they increasing in number or decreasing? I said. No. they are rather increasing. He asked: Does anyone give up his religion, being dissatisfied with it, after having embraced it? I said: No. He asked: Have you been at war with him? I said: Yes. He asked: How did you fare in that war? I said: The war between us and him has been wavering like a bucket, up at one turn and down at the other (i. e. the victory has been shared between us and him by turns). Sometimes he suffered loss at our hands and sometimes we suffered loss at his (hand). He asked: Has he (ever) violated his covenant? I said: No. but we have recently concluded a peace treaty with him for a petiod and we do not know what he is going to do about it. (Abu Sufyin said on oath that he could not interpolate in this dialogue anything from himself more than these words ) He asked: Did anyone make the proclamation (Of prophethood) before him? I said: No. He (now) said to his interpreter: Tell him, I asked him about his ancestry and he had replied that he had the best ancestry. This is the case with Prophets; they are the descendants of the noblest among their people (Addressing Abu Sufyan), he continued: I asked you if there had been a king among his ancestors. You said that there had been none. If there had been a king among his ancestors, I would have said that he was a man demanding his ancestral kingdom. I asked you about his followers whether they were people of high or low status, and you said that they were of rather low status. Such are the followers of the Prophets. I asked you whether you used to accuse him of falsehood before he proclaimed his prophethood, and you said that you did not.
So I have understood that when he did not allow himself to tell a lie about the poeple, he would never go to the length of forging a falsehood about Allah. I asked you whether anyone renounced his religion being dissatisfied with it after he had embraced it, and you replied in the negative. Faith is like this when it enters the depth of the heart (it perpetuates them). I asked you whether his followers were increasing or decreasing. You said they were increasing. Faith is like this until it reaches its consummation. I asked you whether you had been at war with him, and you replied that you had been and that the victory between you and him had been shared by turns, sometimes he suffering loss at your hand and sometimes you suffering lost at his. This is how the Prophets are tried before the final victory its theirs. I asked you whether he (ever) violated his covenant, and you said that he did not. This is how the Prophets behave. They never violate (their covenants). I asked you whether anyone before him had proclaimed the same thing, and you replied in the negative. I said: If anyone had made the same proclamation before, I would have thought that he was a man following what had been proclaimed before. (Then) he asked: What does he enjoin upon you? I said: He exhorts us to offer Salat, to pay Zakat, to show due regard to kinship and to practise chastity. He said: It what you have told about him is true, he is certainly a Prophet. I knew that he was to appear but I did not think that he would be from among you. If I knew that I would be able to reach him. I would love to meet him; and it I had been with him. I would have washed his feet (out of reverence). His dominion would certainly extend to this place which is under my feet. Then he called for the letter of the Messenger of Allah (may pface be upon him) and read it. The letter ran as follows:" In the name of Allah, Most Gracious and Most Merciful. From Muhammad, the Messenger of Allah, to Hiraql, the Emperor of the Romans. Peace be upon him who follows the guidance. After this, I extend to you the invitation to accept Islam. Embrace Islam and you will be safe. Accept Islam, God will give you double the reward. And if you turn away, upon you will be the sin of your subjects." O People of the Book, come to the word that is common between us that we should worship none other than Allah, should not ascribe any partner to Him and some of us should not take their fellows as Lords other than Allah. If they turn away, you should say that we testify to our being Muslims ."
When he hid finished the reading of the letter, noise and confused clamour was raise around him, and he ordered us to leave. Accordingly, we left. (Addressing my companions) while we were coming out (of the place). I said: Ibn Abu Kabsha (referring sarcastically to the Holy Prophet) has come to wield a great power. Lo! (even) the king of the Romans is afraid of him. I continued to believe that the authority of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) would triumph until God imbued me with (the spirit of) Islam.
Sahih Muslim Book 32, Hadith 89
"Gog and Magog people dig every day until, when they can
almost
see the rays of the sun, the one in charge of them says: "Go
back and
we will dig it tomorrow." Then Allah puts it back,
stronger than it
was before. (This will continue) until, when their
time has come, and
Allah wants to send them against the people, they
will dig until they
can almost see the rays of the sun, then the one
who is in charge of
them will say: "Go back, and we will dig it
tomorrow if Allah wills.'
So they will say: "If Allah wills."
Then they will come back to it and
it will be as they left it. So
they will dig and will come out to the
people, and they will drink
all the water. The people will fortify
themselves against them in
their fortresses. They will shoot their
arrows towards the sky and
they will come back with blood on them, and
they will say: "We
have defeated the people of earth and dominated the
people of
heaven." Then Allah will send a worm in the napes of their
necks
and will kill them thereby.'" The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)
said:
"By the One in Whose Hand is my soul, the beasts of the earth
will grow fat on their flesh."
Sunan Ibn Majah Book 36, Hadith 155
When it was the day of (the battle of) Hunain, I saw a Muslim man fighting with one of the pagans
and another pagan was hiding himself behind the Muslim in order to kill him. So I hurried towards the
pagan who was hiding behind the Muslim to kill him, and he raised his hand to hit me but I hit his
hand and cut it off. That man got hold of me and pressed me so hard that I was afraid (that I would
die), then he knelt down and his grip became loose and I pushed him and killed him. The Muslims
(excepting the Prophet (ﷺ) and some of his companions) started fleeing and I too, fled with them.
Suddenly I met `Umar bin Al-Khattab amongst the people and I asked him, "What is wrong with the
people?" He said, "It is the order of Allah" Then the people returned to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) (after
defeating the enemy). Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "Whoever produces a proof that he has killed an infidel,
will have the spoils of the killed man." So I got up to look for an evidence to prove that I had killed an
infidel, but I could not find anyone to bear witness for me, so I sat down. Then it came to my mind
(that I should speak of it) and I mentioned the case to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ). A man from the persons who
were sitting with him (i.e. the Prophet), said, "The arms of the deceased one whom he ( i.e. Abu
Qatada) has mentioned, are with me, so please compensate him for it (i.e. the spoils)," Abu Bakr said,
"No, Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) will not give it (i.e. the spoils) to a weak humble person from Quraish and leave
one of Allah's Lions who fights on behalf of Allah and His Apostle." Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) then got up and
gave that (spoils) to me, and I bought with it, a garden which was the first property I got after
embracing Islam.
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 64, Hadith 352
Two men brought a dispute before the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). One of them said: Pronounce judgement between us in accordance with Allah’s Book, Messenger of Allah! The other who had more understanding said: Yes, Messenger of Allah! Pronounce judgement between us in accordance with Allah’s Book, and allow me to speak. He (the Prophet) said: Speak, He then said: My son who was a hired servant with this(man) committed fornication with his wife, and when I was told that my son must be stoned to death, I ransomed him with a hundred sheep and a slave girl of mine; but when I asked the learned, they told me that my son should receive a hundred lashes and be banished for a year, and that stoning to death applied only to man’s wife. The apostle of Allah (ﷺ) replied: By him in whose hand my soul is, I shall certainly pronounce judgment between you in accordance with Allah’s Book. Your sheep and your slave girl must be returned to you, and your son shall receive a hundred lashes and be banished for a year. And he commanded Unias al-Aslami go to that man’s wife, and if she confessed, he should stone her to death. She confessed and he stoned her.
Sunan Abi Dawud Book 40, Hadith 95
Three persons set out on a journey. They were overtaken by rain and they had to find protection in a mountain cave where at its mouth there fell a rock of that mountain and thus blocked them altogether. One of them said to the others: Look to your good deeds that you performed for the sake of Allah and then supplicate Allah, the Exalted, that He might rescue you (from this trouble). One of them said: 0 Allah, I had my parents who were old and my wife and my small children also. I tended the flock and when I came back to them in the evening, I milked them (the sheep, goats, cows, etc.) and first served that milk to my parents. One day I was obliged to go out to a distant place in search of fodder and I could not come back before evening and found them (the parents) asleep. I milked the animals as I used to milk and brought milk to them and stood by their heads avoiding to disturb them from sleep and I did not deem it advisable to serve milk to my children before serving them. My children wept near my feet. I remained there in that very state and my parents too until it was morning. And (0 Allah) if Thou art aware that I did this in order to seek Thine pleasure, grant us riddance from this trouble. (The rock slipped a bit) that they could see the sky. The second one said: 0 Allah, I had a female cousin whom I loved more than the men love the women. I wanted to have sexual intercourse with her; she refused but on the condition of getting one hundred dinirs. It was with very great difficulty that I could collect one hundred dinirs and then paid them to her and when I was going to have a sexual intercourse with her, that she said: Servant of Allah, fear Allah and do not break the seal (of chastity) but by lawful means. I got up. 0 Allah, if Thou art aware that I did this in order to seek Thine pleasure, rid us from this trouble. The situation was somewhat eased for them. The third one said: Allah, I employed a workman for a measure of rice. After he had finished his work I gave him his dues (in the form of) a measure of rice, but he did not accept them. I used these rice as seeds, and that gave a bumper crop and I became rich enough to have cows and flocks (in my possession). He came to me and said: Fear Allah, and commit no crueltv upon me in regard to my dues. I said to him: Takeaway this flock of cows and sheep. He said: Fear Allah and do not make a fun of me. I said: I am not making a fun of you. You take the cows and the flocks. So he took them. 0 Allah, if Thou art aware that I did it for Thine pleasure, case the situation for us. And Allah relieved them from the rest of the trouble.
Sahih Muslim Book 49, Hadith 13
"A sheep died so the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said to its owners: 'Why dont you remove its skin, then tan it so you can have something useful from it."
There are narrations on this topic from Salamah bin Al-Muhabbaq, Maimunah, and 'Aishah. The Hadith of Ibn 'Abbas is Hasan Sahih. Similar to this has been reported through other routes from Ibn 'Abbas from the Prophet (ﷺ). And it has been related from Ibn 'Abbas from Maimunah, from the Prophet (ﷺ), and, it has been related from him from Sawdah. I heard Muhammad saying the Hadith of Ibn 'Abbas from Maimunah from the Prophet (ﷺ) were correct. And he said: "It implies that it was reported from Ibn 'Abbas from Maimunah from the Prophet (ﷺ), and that Ibn 'Abbas reported it from the Prophet (ﷺ), and he did not mention Maimunah in it."
This is acted upon according to most of the people of knowledge, and it is the view of Sufyan At-Thawri, Ibn Al-Mubarak, Ash-Shafi'i, Ahmad, and Ishaq.
Jami` at-Tirmidhi Book 24, Hadith 8
Malik related to me from Nafi from Sulayman ibn Yasar that Habbar
ibn al-Aswad arrived on the day of sacrifice while Umar ibn al-Khattab
was sacrificing his animal and said, "Amir al-muminin, we made a
mistake in our reckoning and we thought that today was the day of
Arafa." Umar said, "Go to Makka, you and whoever else is with you, and
do tawaf and sacrifice your animal if you have one with you. Then
shave or cut your hair and return home. Then, in another year, do hajj
and sacrifice an animal, and if you cannot find one, fast three days
on hajj and seven when you return home."
Malik said, "Someone
who intends to do hajj and umra together and then misses the hajj must
do hajj again in another year, doing hajj with umra, and offer two
sacrificial animals, one for doing the hajj with umra, and one for the
hajj that he has missed."
Muwatta Malik Book 20, Hadith 166
AbdurRahman ibn Ka'b ibn Malik reported on the authority of a man from among the companions of the Prophet (ﷺ): The infidels of the Quraysh wrote (a letter) to Ibn Ubayy and to those who worshipped idols from al-Aws and al-Khazraj, while the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was at that time at Medina before the battle of Badr.
(They wrote): You gave protection to our companion. We swear by Allah, you should fight him or expel him, or we shall come to you in full force, until we kill your fighters and appropriate your women.
When this (news) reached Abdullah ibn Ubayy and those who were worshippers of idols, with him they gathered together to fight the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ).
When this news reached the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), he visited them and said: The threat of the Quraysh to you has reached its end. They cannot contrive a plot against you, greater than what you yourselves intended to harm you. Are you willing to fight your sons and brethren? When they heard this from the Prophet (ﷺ), they scattered. This reached the infidels of the Quraysh.
The infidels of the Quraysh again wrote (a letter) to the Jews after the battle of Badr: You are men of weapons and fortresses. You should fight our companion or we shall deal with you in a certain way. And nothing will come between us and the anklets of your women. When their letter reached the Prophet (ﷺ), they gathered Banu an-Nadir to violate the treaty.
They sent a message to the Prophet (ﷺ): Come out to us with thirty men from your companions, and thirty rabbis will come out from us till we meet at a central place where they will hear you. If they testify to you and believe in you, we shall believe in you. The narrator then narrated the whole story.
When the next day came, the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) went out in the morning with an army, and surrounded them.
He told them: I swear by Allah, you will have no peace from me until you conclude a treaty with me. But they refused to conclude a treaty with him. He therefore fought them the same day.
Next he attacked Banu Quraysh with an army in the morning, and left Banu an-Nadir. He asked them to sign a treaty and they signed it.
He turned away from them and attacked Banu an-Nadir with an army. He fought with them until they agreed to expulsion. Banu an-Nadir were deported, and they took with them whatever their camels could carry, that is, their property, the doors of their houses, and their wood. Palm-trees were exclusively reserved for the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). Allah bestowed them upon him and gave them him as a special portion.
He (Allah), the Exalted, said: What Allah has bestowed on His Apostle (and taken away) from them, for this ye made no expedition with either camel corps or cavalry." He said: "Without fighting." So the Prophet (ﷺ) gave most of it to the emigrants and divided it among them; and he divided some of it between two men from the helpers, who were needy, and he did not divide it among any of the helpers except those two. The rest of it survived as the sadaqah of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) which is in the hands of the descendants of Fatimah (Allah be pleased with her).
Sunan Abi Dawud Book 20, Hadith 77
The wife of the Prophet (ﷺ) : We set out with Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) on one of his journeys, and when we were at
Baida' or at Dhat-al-Jaish, a necklace of mine was broken (and lost). Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) stayed there to
look for it, and so did the people along with him. Neither were they at a place of water, nor did they
have any water with them. So the people went to Abu Bakr As-Siddiq and said, "Don't you see what
`Aisha has done? She has made Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and the people, stay where there is no water and they
have no water with them." Abu Bakr came while Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) was sleeping with his head on my
thigh. He said (to me), "You have detained Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and the people where there is no water,
and they have no water with them." So he admonished me and said what Allah wished him to say, and
he hit me on my flanks with his hand. Nothing prevented me from moving (because of pain! but the
position of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) on my thigh. So Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) got up when dawn broke and there was no
water, so Allah revealed the Verse of Tayammum. Usaid bin Hudair said, "It is not the first blessing of
yours, O the family of Abu Bakr." Then we made the camel on which I was riding, got up, and found
the necklace under it.
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 65, Hadith 129
I had a she-camel which I got in my share from the booty of the battle of Badr, and the Prophet (ﷺ) had
given me another she camel from the Khumus which Allah had bestowed on him that day. And when I
intended to celebrate my marriage to Fatima, the daughter of the Prophet, I made an arrangement with
a goldsmith from Bani Qainuqa 'that he should go with me to bring Idhkhir (i.e. a kind of grass used
by gold-smiths) which I intended to sell to gold-smiths in order to spend its price on the marriage
banquet. While I was collecting ropes and sacks of pack saddles for my two she-camels which were
kneeling down beside an Ansari's dwelling and after collecting what I needed, I suddenly found that
the humps of the two she-camels had been cut off and their flanks had been cut open and portions of
their livers had been taken out. On seeing that, I could not help weeping.
I asked, "Who has done that?" They (i.e. the people) said, "Hamza bin `Abdul Muttalib has done it. He
is present in this house with some Ansari drinkers, a girl singer, and his friends. The singer said in her
song, "O Hamza, get at the fat she-camels!" On hearing this, Hamza rushed to his sword and cut of the
camels' humps and cut their flanks open and took out portions from their livers." Then I came to the
Prophet, with whom Zaid bin Haritha was present. The Prophet (ﷺ) noticed my state and asked, "What is
the matter?" I said, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ), I have never experienced such a day as today! Hamza attacked
my two she-camels, cut off their humps and cut their flanks open, and he is still present in a house
along some drinkers." The Prophet (ﷺ) asked for his cloak, put it on, and proceeded, followed by Zaid bin
Haritha and myself, till he reached the house where Hamza was. He asked the permission to enter, and
he was permitted. The Prophet (ﷺ) started blaming Hamza for what he had done. Hamza was drunk and
his eyes were red. He looked at the Prophet (ﷺ) then raised his eyes to look at his knees and raised his
eves more to look at his face and then said, "You are not but my father's slaves." When the Prophet (ﷺ)
understood that Hamza was drunk, he retreated, walking backwards went out and we left with him.
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 64, Hadith 54
Allah, the brother of Abu Al-Qu'ais asked my permission to enter after the verses of Al-Hijab (veiling
the ladies) was revealed, and I said, "By Allah, I will not admit him unless I take permission of Allah's
Apostle for it was not the brother of Al-Qu'ais who had suckled me, but it was the wife of Al-Qu'ais,
who had suckled me." Then Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) entered upon me, and I said, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! The man
has not nursed me but his wife has nursed me." He said, "Admit him because he is your uncle (not
from blood relation, but because you have been nursed by his wife), Taribat Yaminuki." `Urwa said,
"Because of this reason, ' Aisha used to say: Foster suckling relations render all those things
(marriages etc.) illegal which are illegal because of the corresponding blood relations." (See Hadith
No. 36, Vol. 7)
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 78, Hadith 182
Abu Bakr went to a lady from the Ahmas tribe called Zainab bint Al-Muhajir and found that she
refused to speak. He asked, "Why does she not speak." The people said, "She has intended to perform
Hajj without speaking." He said to her, "Speak, for it is illegal not to speak, as it is an action of the
pre-islamic period of ignorance. So she spoke and said, "Who are you?" He said, "A man from the
Emigrants." She asked, "Which Emigrants?" He replied, "From Quraish." She asked, "From what
branch of Quraish are you?" He said, "You ask too many questions; I am Abu Bakr." She said, "How
long shall we enjoy this good order (i.e. Islamic religion) which Allah has brought after the period of
ignorance?" He said, "You will enjoy it as long as your Imams keep on abiding by its rules and
regulations." She asked, "What are the Imams?" He said, "Were there not heads and chiefs of your
nation who used to order the people and they used to obey them?" She said, "Yes." He said, "So they
(i.e. the Imams) are those whom I meant."
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 63, Hadith 59
I was under debt and I came to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and begged from him regarding it. He said: Wait till we receive Sadaqa, so that we order that to be given to you. He again said: Qabisa, begging is not permissible but for one of the three (classes) of persons: one who has incurred debt, for him begging is permissible till he pays that off, after which he must stop it; a man whose property has been destroyed by a calamity which has smitten him, for him begging is permissible till he gets what will support life, or will provide him reasonable subsistence; and a person who has been smitten by poverty. the genuineness of which is confirmed by three intelligent members of this peoples for him begging is permissible till he gets what will support him, or will provide him subsistence. Qabisa, besides these three (every other reason) for begging is forbidden, and one who engages in such consumes that what is forbidden.
Sahih Muslim Book 12, Hadith 141
`Umar sent the Muslims to the great countries to fight the pagans. When Al-Hurmuzan embraced
Islam, `Umar said to him. "I would like to consult you regarding these countries which I intend to
invade." Al-Hurmuzan said, "Yes, the example of these countries and their inhabitants who are the
enemies. of the Muslims, is like a bird with a head, two wings and two legs; If one of its wings got
broken, it would get up over its two legs, with one wing and the head; and if the other wing got
broken, it would get up with two legs and a head, but if its head got destroyed, then the two legs, two
wings and the head would become useless. The head stands for Khosrau, and one wing stands for
Caesar and the other wing stands for Faris. So, order the Muslims to go towards Khosrau." So, `Umar
sent us (to Khosrau) appointing An-Nu`man bin Muqrin as our commander. When we reached the
land of the enemy, the representative of Khosrau came out with forty-thousand warriors, and an
interpreter got up saying, "Let one of you talk to me!"
Al-Mughira replied, "Ask whatever you wish." The other asked, "Who are you?" Al-Mughira replied,
"We are some people from the Arabs; we led a hard, miserable, disastrous life: we used to suck the
hides and the date stones from hunger; we used to wear clothes made up of fur of camels and hair of
goats, and to worship trees and stones. While we were in this state, the Lord of the Heavens and the
Earths, Elevated is His Remembrance and Majestic is His Highness, sent to us from among ourselves
a Prophet whose father and mother are known to us. Our Prophet, the Messenger of our Lord, has
ordered us to fight you till you worship Allah Alone or give Jizya (i.e. tribute); and our Prophet has
informed us that our Lord says:-- "Whoever amongst us is killed (i.e. martyred), shall go to Paradise
to lead such a luxurious life as he has never seen, and whoever amongst us remain alive, shall become
your master." (Al-Mughira, then blamed An-Nu`man for delaying the attack and) An-Nu' man said to
Al-Mughira, "If you had participated in a similar battle, in the company of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) he would
not have blamed you for waiting, nor would he have disgraced you. But I accompanied Allah's
Apostle in many battles and it was his custom that if he did not fight early by daytime, he would wait
till the wind had started blowing and the time for the prayer was due (i.e. after midday).
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 58, Hadith 3
We set out along with the Prophet (ﷺ) during the year of (the battle of) Hunain, and when we faced the
enemy, the Muslims (with the exception of the Prophet (ﷺ) and some of his companions) retreated (before
the enemy). I saw one of the pagans over-powering one of the Muslims, so I struck the pagan from
behind his neck causing his armor to be cut off. The pagan headed towards me and pressed me so
forcibly that I felt as if I was dying. Then death took him over and he released me. Afterwards I
followed `Umar and said to him, "What is wrong with the people?" He said, "It is the Order of Allah."
Then the Muslims returned (to the battle after the flight) and (after overcoming the enemy) the
Prophet sat and said, "Whoever had killed an Infidel and has an evidence to this issue, will have the
Salb (i.e. the belonging of the deceased e.g. clothes, arms, horse, etc)." I (stood up) and said, "Who
will be my witness?" and then sat down. Then the Prophet (ﷺ) repeated his question. Then the Prophet (ﷺ)
said the same (for the third time). I got up and said, "Who will be my witness?" and then sat down.
The Prophet (ﷺ) asked his former question again. So I got up. The Prophet (ﷺ) said, What is the matter, O
Abu Qatada?" So I narrated the whole story; A man said, "Abu Qatada has spoken the truth, and the
Salb of the deceased is with me, so please compensate Abu Qatada on my behalf." Abu Bakr said,
"No! By Allah, it will never happen that the Prophet (ﷺ) will leave a Lion of Allah who fights for the Sake
of Allah and His Apostle and give his spoils to you." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Abu Bakr has spoken the
truth. Give it (the spoils) back to him (O man)!" So he gave it to me and I bought a garden in (the land
of) Banu Salama with it (i.e. the spoils) and that was the first property I got after embracing Islam.
