58. Expeditions
٥٨۔ كِتَابُ السِّيَرِ
[Machine] We were with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in Thul-Hulayfah when the people were struck with hunger. So we obtained camels and sheep. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was among the last ones, so the people hurried, slaughtered, and set up the cooking pots. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent for the pots and they were brought to him. He ordered them to be filled and then he distributed them, giving one camel's portion to a group of ten people.
كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ بِذِي الْحُلَيْفَةِ فَأَصَابَ النَّاسَ جُوعٌ فَأَصَبْنَا إِبِلًا وَغَنَمًا وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِي أُخْرَيَاتِ النَّاسِ فَعَجِلُوا وَذَبَحُوا وَنَصَبُوا الْقُدُورَ فَدَفَعَ إِلَيْهِمْ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَمَرَ بِالْقُدُورِ فَأُكْفِئَتْ ثُمَّ قَسَمَ فَعَدَلَ عَشْرًا مِنَ الْغَنَمِ بِبَعِيرٍ
Kulayb reported from a man of the Ansar. He said: We went out with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ on a journey. The people suffered from intense need and strain. They gained booty and then plundered it. While our pots were boiling the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came walking with his bow touching the ground. He turned over our pots with his bow and smeared the meat with the soil, and said: "Plunder is more unlawful than carrion," or he said: "Carrion is more unlawful than plunder." The narrator Hannad was doubtful. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2705)
خَرَجْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فِي سَفَرٍ فَأَصَابَ النَّاسَ حَاجَةٌ شَدِيدَةٌ وَجَهْدٌ فَأَصَابُوا غَنَمًا فَانْتَهَبُوهَا وَإِنَّ قُدُورَنَا لَتَغْلِي إِذْ جَاءَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَمْشِي عَلَى فَرَسِهِ فَأَكْفَأَ قُدُورَنَا بِقَوْسِهِ ثُمَّ جَعَلَ يُرَمِّلُ اللَّحْمَ بِالتُّرَابِ ثُمَّ قَالَ إِنَّ النُّهْبَةَ لَيْسَ بِأَحَلَّ مِنَ الْمَيْتَةِ أَوْ إِنَّ الْمَيْتَةَ لَيْسَتْ بِأَحَلَّ مِنَ النُّهْبَةِ الشَّكُّ مِنْ هَنَّادٍ
