The Prophet (ﷺ) got the date palm trees of the tribe of Bani-An-Nadir burnt and the trees cut down at a
place called Al-Buwaira . Hassan bin Thabit said in a poetic verse: "The chiefs of Bani Lu'ai found it
easy to watch fire spreading at Al-Buwaira."
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 41, Hadith 7
← Previous Hadith
The Ansar said to the Prophet (ﷺ) "Distribute the date palm trees between us and our emigrant brothers."
He replied, "No." The Ansar said (to the emigrants), "Look after the trees (water and watch them) and
share the fruits with us." The emigrants said, "We listen and obey."

We worked on farms more than anybody else in Medina. We used to rent the land at the yield of
specific delimited portion of it to be given to the landlord. Sometimes the vegetation of that portion
was affected by blights etc., while the rest remained safe and vice versa, so the Prophet (ﷺ) forbade this
practice. At that time gold or silver were not used (for renting the land). If they provided the seeds,
they would get so-and-so much.
