It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that he said: On the day of Khaybar the people plundered some goats, then slaughtered them and began to cook their meat. Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came and gave an order about the pots, so they were overturned, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Indeed, plunder (plundered goods) is not proper."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "He is not one of us who plunders, or snatches, or points towards snatching." Imam Bukhari used Abu Kudaynah Yahya bin al-Muhallab as evidence, and this hadith is sahih (authentic), but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Irbad bin Sariyah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade the khalisah (an animal snatched from a predator), the mujaththamah (an animal tied up and made a target), and having intercourse with female war captives until they have delivered what is in their wombs. This hadith has a sahih (authentic) chain of narration, but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ubadah bin al-Samit (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) set out for Badr and met the enemy. When he had defeated them, one group of Muslims pursued them and began killing them, one group surrounded the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) (so that the enemy could not attack), and one group took possession of the army's camp and goods. When Allah had sufficed them against the enemy and those who had done the killing returned, they said: These spoils are ours, because we killed the enemy and it was through us that Allah defeated them. Those who had surrounded the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: By Allah, you are not more entitled to them than we are; they are ours, because we were guarding the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) so that the enemy could not cause him any harm. And those who had taken possession of the camp and goods said: You are not more entitled to them than we are; we took possession of the camp and goods. So Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, revealed this verse: "They ask you about the spoils of war. Say: The spoils of war belong to Allah and the Messenger, so fear Allah and set right your mutual relations" [Surah Al-Anfal: 1] , up to where He said: "if you are believers." So the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) distributed that wealth equally among them. This hadith is sahih (authentic) on the condition of Imam Muslim, but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it, and it has a supporting narration (shahid) through Muhammad bin Ishaq al-Qurashi which is also sahih on the condition of Imam Muslim.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Umamah al-Bahili (may Allah be pleased with him): I asked Sayyiduna Ubadah bin al-Samit (may Allah be pleased with him) about the spoils of war (anfal), and he said: It was revealed concerning us, the people of Badr. Then he mentioned the complete lengthy hadith.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with them both): We were with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) in the Battle of Khaybar. A detachment went out and brought back a man who had some goats that he was herding. They brought him to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) spoke with him at length. The man said: I believe in you and in the message you have brought. But, O Messenger of Allah, what will become of these goats? For they are a trust and they belong to people, whether one or two or more than that. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Throw pebbles at their faces; they will go back to their owners on their own." So he took a handful of pebbles, or dust, and threw it at their faces, and they ran off until every goat had entered its owner's house. Then the man advanced to the battle line and was struck by an arrow which killed him as a martyr, although he had never performed a single prostration for Allah. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Take him into the tent." So he was placed in the tent of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). When he (peace and blessings be upon him) had finished (his task), he went in to him, then came out and said: "The Islam of your companion was excellent. When I went in to him, two of his wives from the wide-eyed houris (hur al-'in) were with him." This hadith has a sahih (authentic) chain of narration, but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) that a leather pouch containing beads from the spoils of war was brought to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and he (peace and blessings be upon him) distributed it equally between the free women and the slave women. This hadith has a sahih (authentic) chain of narration, but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that on the day of Khaybar the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade selling the spoils of war before they had been distributed, and forbade having intercourse with pregnant captive women until they had delivered their pregnancies. And he (peace and blessings be upon him) said (as a warning): "Do you water another person's crop?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) also forbade eating the meat of domestic donkeys and the meat of every predatory animal with fangs. This hadith has a sahih (authentic) chain of narration, but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it with this wording.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that on the day of Khaybar the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade selling the spoils of war before they had been distributed. Part of this text has also been narrated with a sahih (authentic) chain on the condition of the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim).

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that on the day of Khaybar the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade the meat of domestic donkeys, having intercourse with pregnant women before they deliver, every predatory animal with fangs, and selling the khums (the fifth share of the spoils) before it is distributed.
