Sayyiduna ‘Ubada bin Samit (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) took hold of some hair from the side of a camel from the war booty and said:“My share in this is the same as yours. Beware of dishonesty, for dishonesty will be a cause of disgrace for the dishonest person on the Day of Resurrection. Return even a thread, a needle, or anything of lesser value. Whether the journey is near or far, whether you are at home or traveling, strive in the path of Allah in every situation, for jihad is one of the doors of Paradise, and through it Allah relieves distress, regret, and sorrow. Establish the limits of Allah on everyone, whether they are relatives or not, and let not the blame of any blamer affect you regarding Allah.”

Sayyiduna ‘Ubada bin Samit reports that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) led us in prayer on the day of the Battle of Hunayn, facing the side of a camel from the spoils of war. (After finishing the prayer) the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) took hold of some hair from that camel between his two fingers and said:“O people! Even this (hair) is part of your spoils. Return the needle, thread, and anything of lesser or greater value, because betrayal will be a source of shame, disgrace, and humiliation for the betrayer on the Day of Resurrection.”

It is narrated from Sayyiduna ‘Irbaad (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) took hold of the forelock of (an animal) from the wealth given by Allah and said:“My share in it is the same as your share, (that is) one fifth is mine, and that too will be distributed among you. Therefore, give even a thread, a needle, and things of even lesser value, and avoid dishonesty, for it will be a cause of disgrace and shame for the dishonest person on the Day of Resurrection.”
