That he asked for a salt flat called the Ma'rib Dam to be given to him, and it was given to him. Then Aqra bin Habis At-Tamimi came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said: “O Messenger of Allah ﷺ, I used to come to the salt flat during the Ignorance period and it was in a land in which there was no water, and whoever came to it took from it. It was (plentiful) like flowing water.” So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked Abyad bin Hammal to give back his share of the salt flat. He said: “I give it to you on the basis that you make it charity given by me.” The Messenger of Allah said: “It is a charity from you, and it is like flowing water, whoever comes to it may take from it.”(One of the narrators) Faraj said: “That is how it is today, whoever comes to it takes from it.” He said: “The Prophet ﷺ gave him land and palm trees in Jurf Murad instead, when he took back the salt flat from him.”

يُقَالُ لَهُ مِلْحُ سَدِّ مَأْرِبٍ فَأَقْطَعَهُ لَهُ ثُمَّ إِنَّ الأَقْرَعَ بْنَ حَابِسٍ التَّمِيمِيَّ أَتَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي قَدْ وَرَدْتُ الْمِلْحَ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ وَهُوَ بِأَرْضٍ لَيْسَ بِهَا مَاءٌ وَمَنْ وَرَدَهُ أَخَذَهُ وَهُوَ مِثْلُ الْمَاءِ الْعِدِّ فَاسْتَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَبْيَضَ بْنَ حَمَّالٍ فِي قَطِيعَتِهِ فِي الْمِلْحِ فَقَالَ قَدْ أَقَلْتُكَ مِنْهُ عَلَى أَنْ تَجْعَلَهُ مِنِّي صَدَقَةً فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ هُوَ مِنْكَ صَدَقَةٌ وَهُوَ مِثْلُ الْمَاءِ الْعِدِّ مَنْ وَرَدَهُ أَخَذَهُ قَالَ فَرَجٌ وَهُوَ الْيَوْمَ عَلَى ذَلِكَ مَنْ وَرَدَهُ أَخَذَهُ قَالَ فَقَطَعَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَرْضًا وَنَخْلاً بِالْجُرْفِ جُرْفِ مُرَادٍ مَكَانَهُ حِينَ أَقَالَهُ مِنْهُ

أَنَّهُ اسْتَقْطَعَ الْمِلْحَ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ الَّذِي يُقَالُ لَهُ مِلْحُ سدِّ ِمَأْرِبَ فَأَقْطَعَهُ ثُمَّ إِنَّ الْأَقْرَعَ بْنَ حَابِسٍ التَّمِيمِيَّ قَالَ يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ إِنِّي قَدْ وَرَدْتُ الْمِلْحَ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ وَهُوَ بِأَرْضٍ لَيْسَ بِهَا مَاءٌ وَمَنْ وَرَدَهُ أَخَذَهُ وَهُوَ مِثْلُ مَاءِ الْعِدِّ فَاسْتَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ الْأَبْيَضَ فِي قَطِيعَتِهِ فِي الْمِلْحِ فَقُلْتُ قَدْ أَقَلْتُهُ عَلَى أَنْ تَجْعَلَهُ مِنِّي صَدَقَةً فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «هُوَ مِنْكَ صَدَقَةٌ وَهُوَ مِثْلُ مَاءِ الْعِدِّ مَنْ وَرَدَهُ أَخَذَهُ» قَالَ وَقَطَعَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَرْضًا وَنَخْلًا َكَذَا بِالْجَوْفِ جَوْفِ مُرَادٍ مَكَانَهُ حِينَ أَقَالَهُ مِنْهُ قَالَ الْفَرَجُ فَهُوَ عَلَى ذَلِكَ مَنْ وَرَدَهُ أَخَذَهُ

[Machine] He (Abī Saʿīd) took salt from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ that was called Shaddā in Maʾrib and cut it for him. Then Al-Aqraʿ ibn Ḥābis Tamīmī said, "O Messenger of Allah, I used to receive salt during the time of ignorance, and it was in a land, so who should I give it to when I receive it, and it is plentiful like flowing water?" The Prophet ﷺ said, "It is from you as a charity, and it is like flowing water. So whoever receives it may take it." Abū Saʿīd Al-Khudri gave a piece of land and grass to him from a piece of land in the middle as it was when he divided it. It is mentioned that he also asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about the fever of arāk, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "There is no fever in arāk." He then said, "There is arākah in my land." The Prophet ﷺ said, "There is no fever in arāk." He finally said, "There is a fruj (a kind of fever) in the portion with the enclosed cultivated area."

أَنَّهُ اسْتَقْطَعَ الْمِلْحَ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ الَّذِي يُقَالُ لَهُ شَذَّا بِمَأْرِبَ فَقَطَعَهُ لَهُ ثُمَّ إِنَّ الْأَقْرَعَ بْنَ حَابِسٍ التَّمِيمِيَّ قَالَ يَا نَبِيَّ اللهِ إِنِّي قَدْ وَرَدْتُ الْمِلْحَ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ وَهُوَ بِأَرْضٍ فَمَنْ وَرَدَهُ أَخَذَهُ وَهُوَ مِثْلُ الْمَاءِ الْعِدِّ قَالَ فَاسْتَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَبْيَضَ بْنَ حَمَّالٍ فِي قَطِيعَتِهِ فَقَالَ أَبْيَضُ قَدْ أَقَلْتُهُ مِنْهُ عَلَى أَنْ يَجْعَلَهُ مِنِّي صَدَقَةً فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «هُوَ مِنْكَ صَدَقَةٌ وَهُوَ مِثْلُ الْمَاءِ الْعِدِّ فَمَنْ وَرَدَهُ أَخَذَهُ» قَالَ فَقَطَعَ لَهُ نَبِيُّ اللهِ ﷺ أَرْضًا وَعُشْبًا بِالْجَوْفِ جَوْفِ مُرَادٍ مَكَانَهُ حِينَ أَقَالَهُ مِنْهُ وَأَنَّهُ سَأَلَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ عَنْ حِمَى الْأَرَاكِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «لَا حِمَى فِي الْأَرَاكِ» فَقَالَ أَرَاكَةٌ فِي حِظَارِي فَقَالَ «لَا حِمَى فِي الْأَرَاكِ» قَالَ فَرَجٌ «يَعْنِي أَبْيَضَ فِي حِظَارِي الْأَرْضِ الَّتِي فِيهَا الزَّرْعُ الْمُحَاطُ عَلَيْهِ»
