Original Arabic

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْمُغِيرَةِ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا صَفْوَانُ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ جُبَيْرِ بْنِ نُفَيْرٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَوْفِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ الْأَشْجَعِيِّ قَالَ: كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا جَاءَ فَيْءٌ قَسَمَهُ مِنْ يَوْمِهِ، فَأَعْطَى الْآهِلَ حَظَّيْنِ، وَأَعْطَى الْعَزَبَ حَظًّا وَاحِدًا. فَدُعِينَا وَكُنْتُ أُدْعَى قَبْلَ عَمَّارِ (٢) بْنِ يَاسِرٍ،، ، فَدُعِيتُ، فَأَعْطَانِي حَظَّيْنِ، وَكَانَ لِي أَهْلٌ، ثُمَّ دَعَا بَعْدُ عَمَّارَ بْنَ يَاسِرٍ فَأُعْطِيَ حَظًّا وَاحِدًا، فَبَقِيَتْ قِطْعَةُ سِلْسِلَةٍ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ، فَجَعَلَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَرْفَعُهَا بِطَرَفِ عَصَاهُ، ثُمَّ رَفَعَهَا وَهُوَ يَقُولُ: " كَيْفَ أَنْتُمْ يَوْمَ يَكْثُرُ لَكُمْ مِنْ هَذَا؟ " (١)،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Auf (may Allah be pleased with him) that whenever spoils of war would come to the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ), he would distribute them on the same day. He would give two shares to a married man and one share to an unmarried man. On one occasion, we were called; I used to be called before Ammar bin Yasir (may Allah be pleased with him). So that day too, I was called, and the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) gave me two shares because I was married. After that, Ammar bin Yasir (may Allah be pleased with him) was called and he was given one share. In the end, a gold chain was left. The Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) would lift it with the tip of his staff, it would fall, then he would lift it again, and he kept saying: "What will your condition be when you have abundance of such things?"
