My father took a sword from Khums and brought it to the Prophet ﷺ and said: Grant it to me. He refused. At this Allah revealed (the Qur'anic verse):" They ask thee concerning the spoils of war. Say: The spoils of war are for Allah and the Apostle" (viii. 1).  

مسلم:١٧٤٨aوَحَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ عَنْ سِمَاكٍ عَنْ مُصْعَبِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ

أَخَذَ أَبِي مِنَ الْخُمْسِ سَيْفًا فَأَتَى بِهِ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ هَبْ لِي هَذَا فَأَبَى فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ ﷻ { يَسْأَلُونَكَ عَنِ الأَنْفَالِ قُلِ الأَنْفَالُ لِلَّهِ وَالرَّسُولِ}

" Four verses of the Qur'an have been revealed about me. I found a sword (among the spoils of war). It was brought to the Prophet ﷺ. He (my father) said: Messenger of Allah, bestow it upon me. The Apostle of Allah ﷺ said: Place it there. Then he (my father) stood up and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to him: Place it from where you got it. (At this) he (my father) said again: Messenger of Allah, bestow it upon me Shall I be treated like one who has no share in (the booty)? The Apostle of Allah (may peace be upon him said: Place it from where you got it. At this was revealed the verse:" They ask thee about the spoils of war.... Say: The spoils of war are for Allah and the Messenger"

muslim:1749aYaḥyá b. Yaḥyá > Mālik > Nāfiʿ > Ibn ʿUmar

It has been narrated on the authority of Ibn Umar that the Prophet ﷺ sent an expedition to Najd and I was among the troops. They got a large number of camels as a booty. Eleven or twelve camels fell to the lot of every fighter and each of them also got one extra camel.  

مسلم:١٧٤٩aحَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى قَالَ قَرَأْتُ عَلَى مَالِكٍ عَنْ نَافِعٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ

بَعَثَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ سَرِيَّةً وَأَنَا فِيهِمْ قِبَلَ نَجْدٍ فَغَنِمُوا إِبِلاً كَثِيرَةً فَكَانَتْ سُهْمَانُهُمُ اثْنَى عَشَرَ بَعِيرًا أَوْ أَحَدَ عَشَرَ بَعِيرًا وَنُفِّلُوا بَعِيرًا بَعِيرًا  

muslim:1749b[Chain 1] Qutaybah b. Saʿīd > Layth [Chain 2] Muḥammad b. Rumḥ > al-Layth > Nāfiʿ > Ibn ʿUmar

Ibn 'Umar reported that Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent an expedition to Najd and Ibn Umar was also among the troops, and their share (of the spoils) came to twelve camels and they were given one camel over and above that. and Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not make any change in it.  

مسلم:١٧٤٩bوَحَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ حَدَّثَنَا لَيْثٌ ح وَحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رُمْحٍ أَخْبَرَنَا اللَّيْثُ عَنْ نَافِعٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ بَعَثَ سَرِيَّةً قِبَلَ نَجْدٍ وَفِيهِمُ ابْنُ عُمَرَ وَأَنَّ سُهْمَانَهُمْ بَلَغَتِ اثْنَىْ عَشَرَ بَعِيرًا وَنُفِّلُوا سِوَى ذَلِكَ بَعِيرًا فَلَمْ يُغَيِّرْهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ

It has been narrated by Ibn 'Umar that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent an expedition to Najd, and I (also) went with the troops. We got camels and goats as spoils of war, and our share amounted to twelve camels per head, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ gave an extra camel to each of us.  

مسلم:١٧٤٩cوَحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُسْهِرٍ وَعَبْدُ الرَّحِيمِ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ عَنْ نَافِعٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ

This hadith has been narrated on the authority of 'Ubaidullah with the same chain of transmitters.

I wrote to Nafi' asking him about Nafl (spoils of war) and be wrote to me that Ibn 'Umar was among that expedition. (The rest of the hadith is the same.)

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ gave us an extra (camel) besides our share of Khums; (and in this extra share) I got a Sharif (and a Sharif is a big old camel).  

مسلم:١٧٥٠aوَحَدَّثَنَا سُرَيْجُ بْنُ يُونُسَ وَعَمْرٌو النَّاقِدُ وَاللَّفْظُ لِسُرَيْجٍ قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ رَجَاءٍ عَنْ يُونُسَ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ سَالِمٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ

نَفَّلَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ نَفَلاً سِوَى نَصِيبِنَا مِنَ الْخُمْسِ فَأَصَابَنِي شَارِفٌ وَالشَّارِفُ الْمُسِنُّ الْكَبِيرُ

It reached me through Ibn Umar that Messenger of Allah ﷺ gave a share of spoils to the troop. The rest of the hadith is the same.  

مسلم:١٧٥٠bوَحَدَّثَنَا هَنَّادُ بْنُ السَّرِيِّ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ ح وَحَدَّثَنِي حَرْمَلَةُ بْنُ يَحْيَى أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ كِلاَهُمَا عَنْ يُونُسَ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ قَالَ بَلَغَنِي عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ

نَفَّلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ سَرِيَّةً بِنَحْوِ حَدِيثِ ابْنِ رَجَاءٍ  

muslim:1750cʿAbd al-Malik b. Shuʿayb b. al-Layth from my father from my father > ʿUqayl b. Khālid > Ibn Shihāb > Sālim > ʿAbdullāh

It has been narrated on the authority of Abdullah b. 'Umar that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to give (from the spoils of war) to small troops seat on expeditions something more than the due share of each fighter in a large force. And Khums (one-fifth of the total spoils) was to be reserved (for Allah and His Apostle) in all cases.  

مسلم:١٧٥٠cوَحَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ بْنُ شُعَيْبِ بْنِ اللَّيْثِ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي عَنْ جَدِّي قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي عُقَيْلُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنْ سَالِمٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَدْ كَانَ يُنَفِّلُ بَعْضَ مَنْ يَبْعَثُ مِنَ السَّرَايَا لأَنْفُسِهِمْ خَاصَّةً سِوَى قَسْمِ عَامَّةِ الْجَيْشِ وَالْخُمْسُ فِي ذَلِكَ وَاجِبٌ كُلِّهِ
