وَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " غَزَا نَبِيٌّ مِنَ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ فَقَالَ لِقَوْمِهِ: لَا يَتَّبِعْنِي رَجُلٌ قَدْ مَلَكَ بُضْعَ امْرَأَةٍ وَهُوَ يُرِيدُ أَنْ يَبْنِيَ بِهَا وَلَمْ يَبْنِ، وَلَا آخَرُ قَدْ بَنَى بُنْيَانًا وَلَمَّا يَرْفَعْ سُقُفَهَا، وَلَا آخَرُ (٦)، ، قَدِ اشْتَرَى غَنَمًا أَوْ خَلِفَاتٍ وَهُوَ يَنْتَظِرُ أَوْلَادَهَا. فَغَزَا فَدَنَا مِنَ الْقَرْيَةِ حِينَ صَلَّى (١) الْعَصْرَ أَوْ قَرِيبًا مِنْ ذَلِكَ، فَقَالَ لِلشَّمْسِ: أَنْتِ مَأْمُورَةٌ وَأَنَا مَأْمُورٌ، اللهُمَّ احْبِسْهَا عَلَيَّ شَيْئًا، فَحُبِسَتْ عَلَيْهِ حَتَّى فَتَحَ اللهُ عَلَيْهِ، فَجَمَعُوا مَا غَنِمُوا، فَأَقْبَلَتِ النَّارُ لِتَأْكُلَهُ، فَأَبَتْ أَنْ تَطْعَمَهُ (٢) ، فَقَالَ: فِيكُمْ غُلُولٌ، فَلْيُبَايِعْنِي مِنْ كُلِّ قَبِيلَةٍ رَجُلٌ، فَبَايَعُوهُ، فَلَصِقَتْ يَدُ رَجُلٍ بِيَدِهِ، فَقَالَ: فِيكُمُ الْغُلُولُ، فَلْتُبَايِعْنِي قَبِيلَتُكَ، قَالَ: فَبَايَعَتْهُ قَبِيلَتُهُ "، " فَلَصِقَ يَدُ (٣) رَجُلَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلَاثَةٍ بِيَدِهِ، فَقَالَ: فِيكُمُ الْغُلُولُ،، أَنْتُمْ غَلَلْتُمْ، فَأَخْرَجُوا لَهُ مِثْلَ رَأْسِ بَقَرَةٍ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ "، قَالَ: " فَوَضَعُوهُ فِي الْمَالِ وَهُوَ بِالصَّعِيدِ، فَأَقْبَلَتِ النَّارُ فَأَكَلَتْهُ، فَلَمْ تَحِلَّ الْغَنَائِمُ لِأَحَدٍ مِنْ قَبْلِنَا، ذَلِكَ بِأَنَّ اللهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ رَأَى ضَعْفَنَا وَعَجْزَنَا، فَطَيَّبَهَا لَنَا " (٤)، ،

Translation

English translation

And the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said: A prophet set out for jihad. He said to his people: No man should go with me who has married a woman but has not yet consummated the marriage and now wishes to do so, or a man who has built a house but has not yet put a roof on it, or a man who has bought goats or pregnant she-camels and is waiting for them to give birth. After saying this, he set out and reached the town (where he was to fight the enemy) at the time of Asr prayer or close to it. He said to the sun: You are also bound by Allah’s command, and I am also bound by Allah’s command. O Allah, hold it back for a while in its place. So the sun remained in its place until Allah granted them victory. They collected the spoils of war. Fire came to burn it, but it did not burn. The prophet of the time said: Someone among you has committed treachery in the spoils of war. Therefore, let one man from each tribe come and pledge allegiance on my hand. All the people pledged allegiance, and the hand of one man stuck to his hand. He said: You have committed treachery in the spoils of war. So they brought out gold equal to the head of a cow and put it in the spoils of war, which was collected on a platform. Fire came and consumed it. Before us, it was not lawful for anyone to use the spoils of war. Allah saw our weakness and helplessness, so He made it lawful for us.
