But for the other Muslims (i.e. coming generations) I would divide (the land of) whatever villages the
Muslims might conquer (among the fighters), as the Prophet (ﷺ) divided (the land of) Khaibar.

By Him in Whose Hand my soul is, were I not afraid that the other Muslims might be left in poverty, I
would divide (the land of) whatever village I may conquer (among the fighters), as the Prophet (ﷺ)
divided the land of Khaibar. But I prefer to leave it as a (source of) a common treasury for them to
distribute it revenue amongst themselves.

Abu Huraira came to the Prophet (ﷺ) and asked him (for a share from the Khaibar booty). On that, one of
the sons of Sa`id bin Al-`As said to him, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! Do not give him." Abu Huraira then said
(to the Prophet (ﷺ) ) "This is the murderer of Ibn Qauqal." Sa`id's son said, "How strange! A guinea pig
coming from Qadum Ad-Dan!"
