Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that on the day of the Treaty of Hudaybiyyah, before the treaty was concluded, some slaves of the people of Makkah ran away and came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and became Muslims. Their owners sent a message to you from Makkah: "By Allah, O Muhammad! They have not come to you out of love for your religion, rather they have only run away from slavery." Some of the companions of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Messenger of Allah! They are telling the truth, so send them back." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) became angry and said: "O group of Quraysh! I think you will not desist until Allah imposes upon you someone who will strike your necks because of this religion." He refused to send them back and said: "Allah Almighty has set them free."

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: All of you are guardians (responsible) and all of you will be questioned regarding your subjects. Thus, the leader of the people is responsible for them and will be questioned about them (before Allah). Beware! A man is responsible for his household and will be questioned about them. Beware! A woman is responsible for her husband’s house and will be questioned about it. Beware! A servant is responsible for his master’s wealth and will be questioned about that wealth. Listen! All of you are guardians (responsible) and all of you will be questioned regarding your subjects.

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Ka'b Ansari (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that a group of the Ansari companions of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said to Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him): "Umar! You have become heedless of us and have made us heedless as well, whereas the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had given an order regarding the rotation of armies concerning us, but you have stopped acting upon it."

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) used to take a pledge from us for hearing and obeying, then he would say: as much as you are able.

Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) used to spend on his family for a year from the wealth of Banu Nadir. This was from the wealth which Allah Almighty had granted to His Messenger (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) as fay. The Muslims had neither ridden horses nor camels for it. Then whatever remained, he would spend it in the way of Allah for the preparation of horses and weapons.

Lady Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates that the daughter of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her), sent someone to Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) to request the inheritance from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) which Allah Almighty had given to His Messenger as fay. At that time, Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her) was demanding that charity of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) which was related to what remained from the khums of Madinah, Fadak, and Khaybar. Lady Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates that Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: We do not leave inheritance; whatever we leave behind is charity. The family of Muhammad may take from this wealth of Allah only as much as is sufficient for their needs. They have no right to take more than that. By Allah! I will not change anything in the charities of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) and I will leave them in the same condition as they were during the time of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), and I will deal with them in the same way as the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) used to do.

Yazid bin Abdullah bin al-Shukhair (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that we were sitting in the (neighborhood) of Mirbad in Basra when a Bedouin came who had a piece of leather or a piece of hide with him. He said: This document was written for me by the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him). Abu al-Ala says: I took it and began to read it before the people, and it was written in it: In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. This document is from Muhammad, the Messenger of Allah, to the Banu Zuhayr bin Aqish. If you establish prayer, pay zakat, give the fifth from the spoils of war, and give the share of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and the share of the chosen one (safi), then you will be under the protection of Allah and His Messenger. Abu al-Ala says: We asked him: Have you heard anything from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)? He said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: Fasting in the month of Ramadan and fasting three days in every month removes malice from the heart. He says: I asked him: Did you yourself hear this from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)? He replied: Do you think I would lie about the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)? He says: Then he took the document and turned his back and left. This hadith is from Ahmasi, but the wording is similar.

Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates that the Jews of Nadir and Qurayza fought against the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), so the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) expelled Banu Nadir, but kept Qurayza and showed kindness to them, until later Qurayza also fought against him. Then he killed their men, and distributed their women, children, and wealth among the Muslims, except for a few (individuals) who joined the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him); he granted them protection and they accepted Islam. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) expelled all the Jews from Madinah, including the tribe of Abdullah bin Salam, Banu Qaynuqa, and the Jews of Banu Haritha, until every Jew was expelled from Madinah.

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) made an agreement with the people of Khaybar to take half of the produce of dates and grain.

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates that when Khaybar was conquered, the Jews requested the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) to allow them to stay there on the condition that they would work in exchange for half of the produce, that is, dates and grain. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: We will allow you to stay here on this condition as long as we wish. Thus, during the time of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), and for some time during the caliphates of Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) and Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him), they continued to work there on this condition. The dates obtained from half the produce of Khaybar would be divided into several portions, and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) would take the khums (one-fifth).
