[Machine] "So a man from the Amadad tribe joined us and sought refuge with our caravan. He had nothing with him except a sword, no other weapon. He slaughtered a Muslim man as a sacrifice and continued to deceive until he took off his skin like a garment and spread it on the ground. He then threw himself on it until he became dry, and he made it a shield-like covering. It was decided that we would meet our enemies, a mixture of Romans and Arabs, from Qadada, so we fought them fiercely. Among their people was a Roman man on a horse, with blonde hair, a golden saddle, a speckled saddlecloth, and a sword like his. He carried it and tricked our people. The Amadadi man continued to deceive the Roman until he passed by him, then he struck the veins of his horse with the sword and it fell. He followed him and struck him with the sword until he killed him. When Allah granted us victory, he came forward to ask for his share of the spoils, and the people testified in his favor as his killer. Khalid gave him some of his spoils and kept the rest. When he returned to the caravan of Awf, he mentioned it to him. Awf said to him, 'Go back to him and let him give you what remains.' So he returned to him, but he refused. Awf then went to Khalid and said to him, 'Don't you know that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ decreed that the spoils belong to the killer?' He replied, 'Yes.' Awf said, 'Then what prevents you from giving him the spoils of his victim?' Khalid said, 'I kept it for him, O Messenger of Allah.' The Messenger of Allah then heard about it and became angry. He said to Khalid, 'Don't give it to him, Khalid. Are you leaving my commands? Your example and his are like a man who bought camels and sheep, took them to a watering hole, and let them drink from it and left the scum. So the choice part is for you, and the scum shall be for them.'"

[Machine] That the messenger of Allah ﷺ did not give away the spoils and that a man named Maddiyyan was his companion in the Battle of Mu'tah on the outskirts of Syria, and they encountered the enemy. A Roman soldier intensified his attack on the Muslims and he was riding a chestnut horse with a golden saddle and a golden belt and a sword made of gold. He would strike with it, treating him gently, until the Maddadiyyan passed him, turning to attack his horse, and he fell. Then he climbed on him with a sword and killed him. When Allah defeated the Romans, evidence was found for the Maddadiyyan indicating that he killed him. Khalid gave him his sword and a fifth of his wealth. Awf said, "I spoke to Khalid ibn al-Walid and said, 'Don't you know that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ decreed that the spoils belong to the killer?' He said, 'Yes, but I wanted it for myself.'" Awf said, "There was a conversation between me and him." So I said, "By Allah, I will inform the Messenger of Allah ﷺ of your story." Awf said, "When we gathered with the Prophet ﷺ , Awf mentioned what had happened and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'What prevented you from giving it to him?' Khalid said, 'I wanted it for myself.' The Prophet ﷺ said, 'Give it to him.' Awf said, 'I said to Khalid, 'How did you see, O Khalid? Did I not fulfill what I promised you?' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ became angry and said to Khalid, 'Do not give it to him,' and he said, 'You are not leaving my command.'"

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ لَمْ يُخَمِّسِ السَّلَبَ وَأَنَّ مَدَدِيًّا كَانَ رَفِيقًا لَهُ فِي غَزْوَةِ مُؤْتَةَ فِي طَرَفِ الشَّامِ فَلَقُوا الْعَدُوَّ فَجَعَلَ الرُّومِيُّ مِنْهُمْ يَشْتَدُّ عَلَى الْمُسْلِمِينَ وَهُوَ عَلَى فَرَسٍ أَشْقَرَ وَسَرْجٍ مُذْهَبٍ وَمِنْطَقَةٍ مُلَطَّخَةٍ بِذَهَبٍ وَسَيْفٍ مُحَلًّى مِنْ ذَهَبٍ فَيُغْزِي بِهِمْ فَيَلْطُفُ لَهُ ذَلِكَ الْمَدَدِيُّ حَتَّى مَرَّ بِهِ فَعَرْقَبَ فَرَسَهُ فَوَقَعَ ثُمَّ عَلَاهُ بِالسَّيْفِ فَقَتَلَهُ فَلَمَّا هَزَمَ اللهُ الرُّومَ قَامَتِ الْبَيِّنَةُ لِلْمَدَدِيِّ إِنَّهُ قَتَلَهُ فَأَعْطَاهُ خَالِدٌ سَيْفَهُ وَخُمْسَ مَالِهِ قَالَ عَوْفٌ فَكَلَّمَتُ خَالِدَ بْنَ الْوَلِيدِ فَقُلْتُ أَمَا تَعْلَمُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَضَى بِالسَّلَبِ لِلْقَاتِلِ؟ قَالَ بَلَى وَلَكِنِّي اسْتَكْثَرْتُهُ قَالَ عَوْفٌ وَكَانَ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَهُ كَلَامٌ فَقُلْتُ وَاللهِ لَأُخْبِرَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ خَبَرَكَ قَالَ عَوْفٌ فَلَمَّا اجْتَمَعْنَا عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ ذَكَرَ عَوْفٌ مَا كَانَ مِنْهُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «مَا مَنَعَكَ أَنْ تَدْفَعَ إِلَيْهِ؟» فَقَالَ خَالِدٌ اسْتَكْثَرْتُهُ قَالَ «ادْفَعْهُ إِلَيْهِ» قَالَ عَوْفٌ فَقُلْتُ كَيْفَ رَأَيْتَ يَا خَالِدُ أَلَمْ أُنْجِزْ لَكَ مَا وَعَدْتُكَ؟ فَغَضِبَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَقَالَ لِخَالِدٍ «لَا تُعْطِهِ» وَقَالَ «مَا أَنْتُمْ بِتَارِكِي لِي أُمَرَائِي»
