Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: "When we found fruit during military expeditions, we would eat it and not store it."

Imam Hasan al-Basri (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "When we obtained wheat, barley, ghee, and honey in the battles, we would eat them."

Muhammad bin Sirin (may Allah have mercy on him) said that he asked Hasan al-Basri (may Allah have mercy on him), who used to go for jihad, and he informed: "We used to consume wealth but did not hoard it."

In a battle with the Prophet ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ), people would find large goats, and some would get only one goat. So the Prophet ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said: "If only you would share food with your brothers." So everyone pooled their goats together until those who had little had much, but non-food wealth was distributed separately.

A companion (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "We used to slaughter camels during a military expedition, eat the meat, but would not distribute it, until we returned with our bellies full."

It was asked from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abi Awfa (may Allah be pleased with him): "Was khums (one-fifth) taken from food during the time of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)?" He replied: "We reached the food at Khaybar, so every man would take according to his need and then leave."

Ibrahim (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "Those people would take out the khums, then eat from it themselves, and would distribute the fodder."

Mujahid (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "They would eat honey and fruit and use fodder, but they would not take wheat without extracting the khums from it."

It is narrated from Abdullah bin Salamah (may Allah have mercy on him): When Salman (may Allah be pleased with him) obtained a goat from the spoils of war, he would slaughter it or have it slaughtered, then make a bag from its skin, prepare a rope from its hair, and dry its meat to make (qadeed). He would benefit from the skin himself, give the rope to someone whose horse had fallen, and keep the meat preserved to eat during the days. When he was asked about this, he would say: "For me to get by for a few days with dried meat is better than letting it spoil and then having to stretch my hand out to people."

It is narrated from an elder (may Allah have mercy on him), who had witnessed the era of Sayyiduna Uthman bin Affan (may Allah be pleased with him) and the noble Companions (may Allah be pleased with them): He said, "When we would go out for jihad and find fruits and grapes appearing on the trees in the field, we would benefit from them. But when the fruits were stored in the houses, we would only take them by purchasing."
