"Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) gave the land of Khaibar to the Jews to work on and cultivate and take half of its
yield. Ibn `Umar added, "The land used to be rented for a certain portion (of its yield)." Nafi`
mentioned the amount of the portion but I forgot it. Rafi` bin Khadij said, "The Prophet (ﷺ) forbade
renting farms." Narrated 'Ubaidullah Nafi` said: Ibn `Umar said: (The contract of Khaibar continued)
till `Umar evacuated the Jews (from Khaibar).
