[Machine] "In His saying (And know that whatever of war spoils you may gain, indeed, for Allah is one fifth of it and for the Messenger) [Surah Al-Anfal 41], it is said that the fifth is divided into five parts, one part for Allah and the Messenger, and the remaining parts are divided among others. It was narrated from Mujahid and Qatadah, as well as from Ataa, who said: 'The fifth is for Allah and His Messenger, one part.'"
