Home Hadith Hadith 3020
While I was walking with the Prophet (ﷺ) who was wearing a Najrani outer garment with a thick hem, a
bedouin came upon the Prophet (ﷺ) and pulled his garment so violently that I could recognize the impress
of the hem of the garment on his shoulder, caused by the violence of his pull. Then the bedouin said,
"Order for me something from Allah's Fortune which you have." The Prophet (ﷺ) turned to him and
smiled, and ordered that a gift be given to him.

That while he was with Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) who was accompanied by the people on their way back from
Hunain, the bedouins started begging things of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) so much so that they forced him to go
under a Samura tree where his loose outer garment was snatched away. On that, Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) stood
up and said to them, "Return my garment to me. If I had as many camels as these trees, I would have
distributed them amongst you; and you will not find me a miser or a liar or a coward."

On the day (of the battle) of Hunain, Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) favored some people in the distribution of the
booty (to the exclusion of others); he gave Al-Aqra' bin H`Abis one-hundred camels and he gave
'Uyaina the same amount, and also gave to some of the eminent Arabs, giving them preference in this
regard. Then a person came and said, "By Allah, in this distribution justice has not been observed, nor
has Allah's Pleasure been aimed at." I said (to him), "By Allah, I will inform the Prophet (of what you
have said), "I went and informed him, and he said, "If Allah and His Apostle did not act justly, who
else would act justly. May Allah be merciful to Moses, for he was harmed with more than this, yet he
kept patient."
