Volume 5, Book 59, Number 531
Narrated Ibn Abi Aufa:
We where afflicted with severe hunger on the day of Khaibar. While
the cooking pots were boiling and some of the food was well-cooked,
the announcer of the Prophet came to say, "Do not eat anything the
donkey-meat and upset the cooking pots." We then thought that the
Prophet had prohibited such food because the Khumus had not been
taken out of it. Some others said, "He prohibited the meat of
donkeys from the point of view of principle, because donkeys used to
eat dirty things."
Volume 5, Book 59, Number 532
Narrated Al-Bara and 'Abdullah bin Abl Aufa:
That when they were in the company of the Prophet, they got some
donkeys which they (slaughtered and) cooked. Then the announcer of
the Prophet said, "Turn the cooking pots upside down (i.e. throw out
the meat)."
Volume 5, Book 59, Number 533

Volume 5, Book 59, Number 535
Narrated Al-Bara Bin Azib:
During the Ghazwa of Khaibar, the Prophet ordered us to throw away
the meat of the donkeys whether it was still raw or cooked. He did
not allow us to eat it later on.
Volume 5, Book 59, Number 536
Narrated Ibn Abbas:
I do not know whether the Prophet forbade the eating of donkey-meat
(temporarily) because they were the beasts of burden for the people,
and he disliked that their means of transportation should be lost,
or he forbade it on the day of Khaibar permanently.
Volume 5, Book 59, Number 537
Narrated Ibn 'Umar:
On the day of Khaibar, Allah's Apostle divided (the war booty of
Khaibar) with the ratio of two shares for the horse and one-share
for the foot soldier. (The sub-narrator, Nafi' explained this,
saying, "If a man had a horse, he was given three shares and if he
had no horse, then he was given one share.")
Volume 5, Book 59, Number 538
Narrated Jubair bin Mutim:
Uthman bin 'Affan and I went to the Prophet and said, "You had given
Banu Al-Muttalib from the Khumus of Khaibar's booty and left us in
spite of the fact that we and Banu Al-Muttalib are similarly related
to you." The Prophet said, "Banu Hashim and Banu Al-Muttalib only
are one and the same." So the Prophet did not give anything to Banu
Abd Shams and Banu Nawfal.
Volume 5, Book 59, Number 539
Narrated Abu Musa:
The news of the migration of the Prophet (from Mecca to Medina)
reached us while we were in Yemen. So we set out as emigrants
towards him. We were (three) I and my two brothers. I was the
youngest of them, and one of the two was Abu Burda, and the other,
Abu Ruhm, and our total number was either 53 or 52 men from my
people. We got on board a boat and our boat took us to Negus in
Ethiopia. There we met Ja'far bin Abi Talib and stayed with him.
Then we all came (to Medina) and met the Prophet at the time of the
conquest of Khaibar. Some of the people used to say to us, namely
the people of the ship, "We have migrated before you." Asma' bint
'Umais who was one of those who had come with us, came as a visitor
to Hafsa, the wife the Prophet . She had migrated along with those
other Muslims who migrated to Negus. 'Umar came to Hafsa while Asma'
bint 'Umais was with her. 'Umar, on seeing Asma,' said, "Who is
this?" She said, "Asma' bint 'Umais," 'Umar said, "Is she the
Ethiopian? Is she the sea-faring lady?" Asma' replied, "Yes." 'Umar
said, "We have migrated before you (people of the boat), so we have
got more right than you over Allah's Apostle " On that Asma' became
angry and said, "No, by Allah, while you were with Allah's Apostle
who was feeding the hungry ones amongst you, and advised the
ignorant ones amongst you, we were in the far-off hated land of
Ethiopia, and all that was for the sake of Allah's Apostle . By
Allah, I will neither eat any food nor drink anything till I inform
Allah's Apostle of all that you have said. There we were harmed and
frightened. I will mention this to the Prophet and will not tell a
lie or curtail your saying or add something to it." So when the
Prophet came, she said, "O Allah's Prophet 'Umar has said
so-and-so." He said (to Asma'), "What did you say to him?" Asma's
aid, "I told him so-and-so." The Prophet said, "He (i.e. 'Umar) has
not got more right than you people over me, as he and his companions
have (the reward of) only one migration, and you, the people of the
boat, have (the reward of) two migrations." Asma' later on said, "I
saw Abu Musa and the other people of the boat coming to me in
successive groups, asking me about this narration,, and to them
nothing in the world was more cheerful and greater than what the
Prophet had said about them."
Narrated Abu Burda: Asma' said, "I saw Abu Musa requesting me to
repeat this narration again and again."
Narrated Abu Burda: Abu Musa said, "The Prophet said, "I recognize
the voice of the group of Al-Ashariyun, when they recite the Qur'an,
when they enter their homes at night, and I recognize their houses
by (listening) to their voices when they are reciting the Qur'an at
night although I have not seen their houses when they came to them
during the day time. Amongst them is Hakim who, on meeting the
cavalry or the enemy, used to say to them (i.e. the enemy). My
companions order you to wait for them.' "
Volume 5, Book 59, Number 540
Narrated Abu Musa:
We came upon the Prophet after he had conquered Khaibar. He then
gave us a share (from the booty), but apart from us he did not give
to anybody else who did not attend the Conquest.
Volume 5, Book 59, Number 541
Narrated Abu Huraira:
When we conquered Khaibar, we gained neither gold nor silver as
booty, but we gained cows, camels, goods and gardens. Then we
departed with Allah's Apostle to the valley of Al-Qira, and at that
time Allah's Apostle had a slave called Mid'am who had been
presented to him by one of Banu Ad-Dibbab. While the slave was
dismounting the saddle of Allah's Apostle an arrow the thrower of
which was unknown, came and hit him. The people said,
"Congratulations to him for the martyrdom." Allah's Apostle said,
"No, by Him in Whose Hand my soul is, the sheet (of cloth) which he
had taken (illegally) on the day of Khaibar from the booty before
the distribution of the booty, has become a flame of Fire burning
him." On hearing that, a man brought one or two leather straps of
shoes to the Prophet and said, "These are things I took
(illegally)." On that Allah's Apostle said, "This is a strap, or
these are two straps of Fire."
Volume 5, Book 59, Number 542
Narrated 'Umar bin Al-Khattab:
By Him in Whose Hand my soul is, were I not afraid that the other
Muslims might be left in poverty, I would divide (the land of)
whatever village I may conquer (among the fighters), as the Prophet
divided the land of Khaibar. But I prefer to leave it as a (source
of) a common treasury for them to distribute it revenue amongst
themselves.
Volume 5, Book 59, Number 543
Narrated 'Umar:
But for the other Muslims (i.e. coming generations) I would divide
(the land of) whatever villages the Muslims might conquer (among the
fighters), as the Prophet divided (the land of) Khaibar.
Volume 5, Book 59, Number 544
Narrated 'Anbasa bin Said:
Abu Huraira came to the Prophet and asked him (for a share from the
Khaibar booty). On that, one of the sons of Said bin Al-'As said to
him, "O Allah's Apostle! Do not give him." Abu Huraira then said (to
the Prophet ) "This is the murderer of Ibn Qauqal." Sa'id's son
said, "How strange! A guinea pig coming from Qadum Ad-Dan!"
Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah's Apostle sent Aban from Medina to Najd
as the commander of a Sariya. Aban and his companions came to the
Prophet at Khaibar after the Prophet had conquered it, and the reins
of their horses were made of the fire of date palm trees. I said, "O
Allah's Apostle! Do not give them a share of the booty." on, that,
Aban said (to me), "Strange! You suggest such a thing though you are
what you are, O guinea pig coming down from the top of Ad-Dal (a
lotus tree)! "On that the Prophet said, "O Aban, sit down ! " and
did not give them any share.
Volume 5, Book 59, Number 545
Narrated Said:
Aban bin Said came to the Prophet and greeted him. Abu Huraira said,
"O Allah's Apostle! This (Aban) is the murderer of the Ibn Qauqal."
(On hearing that), Aban said to Abu Huraira, "How strange your
saying is! You, a guinea pig, descending from Qadum Dan, blaming me
for (killing) a person whom Allah favored (with martyrdom) with my
hand, and whom He forbade to degrade me with his hand.'
Volume 5, Book 59, Number 546
Narrated 'Aisha:
Fatima the daughter of the Prophet sent someone to Abu Bakr (when he
was a caliph), asking for her inheritance of what Allah's Apostle
had left of the property bestowed on him by Allah from the Fai (i.e.
booty gained without fighting) in Medina, and Fadak, and what
remained of the Khumus of the Khaibar booty. On that, Abu Bakr said,
"Allah's Apostle said, "Our property is not inherited. Whatever we
leave, is Sadaqa, but the family of (the Prophet) Muhammad can eat
of this property.' By Allah, I will not make any change in the state
of the Sadaqa of Allah's Apostle and will leave it as it was during
the lifetime of Allah's Apostle, and will dispose of it as Allah's
Apostle used to do." So Abu Bakr refused to give anything of that to
Fatima. So she became angry with Abu Bakr and kept away from him,
and did not task to him till she died. She remained alive for six
months after the death of the Prophet. When she died, her husband
'Ali, buried her at night without informing Abu Bakr and he said the
funeral prayer by himself. When Fatima was alive, the people used to
respect 'Ali much, but after her death, 'Ali noticed a change in the
people's attitude towards him. So Ali sought reconciliation with Abu
Bakr and gave him an oath of allegiance. 'Ali had not given the oath
of allegiance during those months (i.e. the period between the
Prophet's death and Fatima's death). 'Ali sent someone to Abu Bakr
saying, "Come to us, but let nobody come with you," as he disliked
that 'Umar should come, 'Umar said (to Abu Bakr), "No, by Allah, you
shall not enter upon them alone " Abu Bakr said, "What do you think
they will do to me? By Allah, I will go to them' So Abu Bakr entered
upon them, and then 'Ali uttered Tashah-hud and said (to Abu Bakr),
"We know well your superiority and what Allah has given you, and we
are not jealous of the good what Allah has bestowed upon you, but
you did not consult us in the question of the rule and we thought
that we have got a right in it because of our near relationship to
Allah's Apostle ."
Thereupon Abu Bakr's eyes flowed with tears. And when Abu Bakr
spoke, he said, "By Him in Whose Hand my soul is to keep good
relations with the relatives of Allah's Apostle is dearer to me than
to keep good relations with my own relatives. But as for the trouble
which arose between me and you about his property, I will do my best
to spend it according to what is good, and will not leave any rule
or regulation which I saw Allah's Apostle following, in disposing of
it, but I will follow." On that 'Ali said to Abu Bakr, "I promise to
give you the oath of allegiance in this after noon." So when Abu
Bakr had offered the Zuhr prayer, he ascended the pulpit and uttered
the Tashah-hud and then mentioned the story of 'Ali and his failure
to give the oath of allegiance, and excused him, accepting what
excuses he had offered; Then 'Ali (got up) and praying (to Allah)
for forgiveness, he uttered Tashah-hud, praised Abu Bakr's right,
and said, that he had not done what he had done because of jealousy
of Abu Bakr or as a protest of that Allah had favored him with. 'Ali
added, "But we used to consider that we too had some right in this
affair (of rulership) and that he (i.e. Abu Bakr) did not consult us
in this matter, and therefore caused us to feel sorry." On that all
the Muslims became happy and said, "You have done the right thing."
The Muslims then became friendly with 'Ali as he returned to what
the people had done (i.e. giving the oath of allegiance to Abu Bakr).

Allah's Apostle appointed a man as the ruler of Khaibar who later
brought some Janib (i.e. dates of good quality) to the Prophet. On
that, Allah's Apostle said (to him). "Are all the dates of Khaibar
like this?" He said, "No, by Allah, O Allah's Apostle! But we take
one Sa of these (dates of good quality) for two or three Sa's of
other dates (of inferior quality)." On that, Allah's Apostle said,
"Do not do so, but first sell the inferior quality dates for money
and then with that money, buy Janib." Abu Said and Abu Huraira said,
"The Prophet made the brother of Bani Adi from the Ansar as the
ruler of Khaibar.

people. Those people criticized his leadership. The Prophet said,
"If you speak ill of his leadership, you have already spoken ill of
his father's leadership before. By Allah, he deserved to be a
Commander, and he was one of the most beloved persons to me and now
this (i.e. Usama) is one of the most beloved persons to me after him.
Volume 5, Book 59, Number 553
Narrated Al-Bara:
When the Prophet went out for the 'Umra in the month of Dhal-Qa'da,
the people of Mecca did not allow him to enter Mecca till he agreed
to conclude a peace treaty with them by virtue of which he would
stay in Mecca for three days only (in the following year). When the
agreement was being written, the Muslims wrote: "This is the peace
treaty, which Muhammad, Apostle of Allah has concluded."
The infidels said (to the Prophet), "We do not agree with you on
this, for if we knew that you are Apostle of Allah we would not have
prevented you for anything (i.e. entering Mecca, etc.), but you are
Muhammad, the son of 'Abdullah." Then he said to 'Ali, "Erase (the
name of) 'Apostle of Allah'." 'Ali said, "No, by Allah, I will never
erase you (i.e. your name)." Then Allah's Apostle took the writing
sheet...and he did not know a better writing..and he wrote or got it
the following written! "This is the peace treaty which Muhammad, the
son of 'Abdullah, has concluded: "Muhammad should not bring arms
into Mecca except sheathed swords, and should not take with him any
person of the people of Mecca even if such a person wanted to follow
him, and if any of his companions wants to stay in Mecca, he should
not forbid him."
(In the next year) when the Prophet entered Mecca and the allowed
period of stay elapsed, the infidels came to Ali and said "Tell your
companion (Muhammad) to go out, as the allowed period of his stay
has finished." So the Prophet departed (from Mecca) and the daughter
of Hamza followed him shouting "O Uncle, O Uncle!" Ali took her by
the hand and said to Fatima, "Take the daughter of your uncle." So
she made her ride (on her horse). (When they reached Medina) 'Ali,
Zaid and Ja'far quarreled about her. 'Ali said, "I took her for she
is the daughter of my uncle." Ja'far said, "She is the daughter of
my uncle and her aunt is my wife." Zaid said, "She is the daughter
of my brother." On that, the Prophet gave her to her aunt and said,
"The aunt is of the same status as the mother." He then said to
'Ali, "You are from me, and I am from you," and said to Ja'far, "You
resemble me in appearance and character," and said to Zaid, "You are
our brother and our freed slave." 'Ali said to the Prophet 'Won't
you marry the daughter of Hamza?" The Prophet said, "She is the
daughter of my foster brother."

Narrated Ibn 'Umar:
Allah's Apostle set out with the intention of performing 'Umra, but
the infidels of Quraish intervened between him and the Ka'ba, so the
Prophet slaughtered his Hadi (i.e. sacrificing animals and shaved
his head at Al-Hudaibiya and concluded a peace treaty with them
(i.e. the infidels) on condition that he would perform the 'Umra the
next year and that he would not carry arms against them except
swords, and would not stay (in Mecca) more than what they would
allow. So the Prophet performed the 'Umra in the following year and
according to the peace treaty, he entered Mecca, and when he had
stayed there for three days, the infidels ordered him to leave, and
he left.

many 'Umras did the Prophet perform?" Ibn 'Umar replied, "Four, one
of which was in Rajab." Then we heard 'Aisha brushing her teeth
whereupon 'Urwa said, "O mother of the believers! Don't you hear
what Abu 'Abdur-Rahman is saying? He is saying that the Prophet
performed four 'Umra, one of which was in Rajab." 'Aisha said, "The
Prophet did not perform any 'Umra but he (i.e. Ibn 'Umar) witnessed
it. And he (the Prophet ) never did any 'Umra in (the month of) Rajab."

Narrated Ibn Abbas:
When Allah's Apostle and his companions arrived (at Mecca), the
pagans said, "There have come to you a group of people who have been

ordered his companions to do Ramal (i.e. fast walking) in the first
three rounds of Tawaf around the Ka'ba and to walk in between the
two corners (i.e. the black stone and the Yemenite corner). The only
cause which prevented the Prophet from ordering them to do Ramal in
all the rounds of Tawaf, was that he pitied them.
Volume 5, Book 59, Number 558
Narrated Ibn Abbas:
The Prophet hastened in going around the Ka'ba and between the Safa
and Marwa in order to show the pagans his strength. Ibn 'Abbas

Haritha as the commander of the army during the Ghazwa of Mu'tah and
said, "If Zaid is martyred, Ja'far should take over his position,
and if Ja'far is martyred, 'Abdullah bin Rawaha should take over his
position.' " 'Abdulla-h bin 'Umar further said, "I was present
amongst them in that battle and we searched for Ja'far bin Abi Talib

found over ninety wounds over his body, caused by stabs or shots (of
arrows).
Volume 5, Book 59, Number 561
Narrated Anas:
The Prophet had informed the people of the martyrdom of Zaid, Ja'far
and Ibn Rawaha before the news of their death reached. The Prophet
said, "Zaid took the flag (as the commander of the army) and was
martyred, then Ja'far took it and was martyred, and then Ibn Rawaha
took it and was martyred." At that time the Prophet's eyes were
shedding tears. He added, "Then the flag was taken by a Sword
amongst the Swords of Allah (i.e. Khalid) and Allah made them (i.e.
the Muslims) victorious."

"I was then peeping through a chink in the door. A man came to him
and said, "O Allah's Apostle! The women of Ja'far are crying.'
Thereupon the Prophet told him to forbid them to do so. So the man
went away and returned saying, "I forbade them but they did not
listen to me." The Prophet ordered him again to go (and forbid
them). He went again and came saying, 'By Allah, they overpowered me
(i.e. did not listen to me)." 'Aisha said that Allah's Apostle said
(to him), "Go and throw dust into their mouths." Aisha added, "I
said, May Allah put your nose in the dust! By Allah, neither have
you done what you have been ordered, nor have you relieved Allah's
Apostle from trouble."

from among them and when we took him over, he said, "La ilaha
illal-Lah." On hearing that, the Ansari man stopped, but I killed
him by stabbing him with my spear. When we returned, the Prophet
came to know about that and he said, "O Usama! Did you kill him
after he had said "La ilaha ilal-Lah?" I said, "But he said so only
to save himself." The Prophet kept on repeating that so often that I
wished I had not embraced Islam before that day.

Narrated 'Ali:
Allah's Apostle sent me, Az-Zubair and Al-Miqdad saying, "Proceed
till you reach Rawdat Khakh where there is a lady carrying a letter,
and take that (letter) from her." So we proceeded on our way with
our horses galloping till we reached the Rawda, and there we found
the lady and said to her, "Take out the letter." She said, "I have
no letter." We said, "Take out the letter, or else we will take off
your clothes." So she took it out of her braid, and we brought the
letter to Allah's Apostle . The letter was addressed from Hatib, bin
Abi Balta'a to some pagans of Mecca, telling them about what Allah's
Apostle intended to do. Allah's Apostle said, "O Hatib! What is
this?" Hatib replied, "O Allah's Apostle! Do not make a hasty
decision about me. I was a person not belonging to Quraish but I was
an ally to them from outside and had no blood relation with them,
and all the Emigrants who were with you, have got their kinsmen (in
Mecca) who can protect their families and properties. So I liked to
do them a favor so that they might protect my relatives as I have no
blood relation with them. I did not do this to renegade from my
religion (i.e. Islam) nor did I do it to choose Heathenism after
Islam." Allah's Apostle said to his companions." As regards him, he
(i.e. Hatib) has told you the truth." 'Umar said, "O Allah's
Apostle! Allow me to chop off the head of this hypocrite!" The
Prophet said, "He (i.e. Hatib) has witnessed the Badr battle (i.e.
fought in it) and what could tell you, perhaps Allah looked at those
who witnessed Badr and said, "O the people of Badr (i.e. Badr Muslim
warriors), do what you like, for I have forgiven you. "Then Allah
revealed the Sura:--
"O you who believe! Take not my enemies And your enemies as friends
offering them (Your) love even though they have disbelieved in that
Truth (i.e. Allah, Prophet Muhammad and this Quran) which has come
to you ....(to the end of Verse)....(And whosoever of you (Muslims)
does that, then indeed he has gone (far) astray (away) from the
Straight Path." (60.1

they were fasting, but when they reached a place called Al-Kadid
which was a place of water between 'Usfan and Kudaid, he broke his
fast and so did they. (Az-Zuhri said, "One should take the last
action of Allah's Apostle and leave his early action (while taking a
verdict.")

Narrated Ibn Abbas:
Allah's Apostle set out towards Hunain in the month of Ramadan and
some of the people were fasting while some others were not fasting,
and when the Prophet mounted his she-camel, he asked for a tumbler
of milk or water and put it on the palm of his hand or on his
she-camel and then the people looked at him; and those who were not
fasting told those who were fasting, to break their fast (i.e. as
the Prophet had done so). Ibn Abbas added, "The Prophet went (to
Hunain) in the year of the Conquest (of Mecca)."
Volume 5, Book 59, Number 576
Narrated Tawus:
Ibn Abbas said, "Allah's Apostle travelled in the month of Ramadan
and he fasted till he reached (a place called) 'Usfan, then he asked
for a tumbler of water and drank it by the daytime so that the
people might see him. He broke his fast till he reached Mecca." Ibn
Abbas used to say, "Allah's Apostle fasted and sometimes did not
fast while traveling, so one may fast or may not (on journeys)"
Volume 5, Book 59, Number 577
Narrated Hisham's father:
When Allah's Apostle set out (towards Mecca) during the year of the
Conquest (of Mecca) and this news reached (the infidels of Quraish),
Abu Sufyan, Hakim bin Hizam and Budail bin Warqa came out to gather
information about Allah's Apostle , They proceeded on their way till
they reached a place called Marr-az-Zahran (which is near Mecca).
Behold! There they saw many fires as if they were the fires of
Arafat. Abu Sufyan said, "What is this? It looked like the fires of
Arafat." Budail bin Warqa' said, "Banu 'Amr are less in number than
that." Some of the guards of Allah's Apostle saw them and took them
over, caught them and brought them to Allah's Apostle. Abu Sufyan
embraced Islam.
When the Prophet proceeded, he said to Al-Abbas, "Keep Abu Sufyan
standing at the top of the mountain so that he would look at the
Muslims. So Al-'Abbas kept him standing (at that place) and the
tribes with the Prophet started passing in front of Abu Sufyan in
military batches. A batch passed and Abu Sufyan said, "O 'Abbas Who
are these?" 'Abbas said, "They are (Banu) Ghifar." Abu Sufyan said,
I have got nothing to do with Ghifar." Then (a batch of the tribe
of) Juhaina passed by and he said similarly as above. Then (a batch
of the tribe of) Sad bin Huzaim passed by and he said similarly as
above. then (Banu) Sulaim passed by and he said similarly as above.
Then came a batch, the like of which Abu Sufyan had not seen. He
said, "Who are these?" Abbas said, "They are the Ansar headed by Sad
bin Ubada, the one holding the flag." Sad bin Ubada said, "O Abu
Sufyan! Today is the day of a great battle and today (what is
prohibited in) the Ka'ba will be permissible." Abu Sufyan said., "O
'Abbas! How excellent the day of destruction is! "Then came another
batch (of warriors) which was the smallest of all the batches, and
in it there was Allah's Apostle and his companions and the flag of
the Prophet was carried by Az-Zubair bin Al Awwam. When Allah's
Apostle passed by Abu Sufyan, the latter said, (to the Prophet), "Do
you know what Sad bin 'Ubada said?" The Prophet said, "What did he
say?" Abu Sufyan said, "He said so-and-so." The Prophet said, "Sad
told a lie, but today Allah will give superiority to the Ka'ba and
today the Ka'ba will be covered with a (cloth) covering." Allah's
Apostle ordered that his flag be fixed at Al-Hajun.
Narrated 'Urwa: Nafi bin Jubair bin Mut'im said, "I heard Al-Abbas
saying to Az-Zubair bin Al-'Awwam, 'O Abu 'Abdullah ! Did Allah's
Apostle order you to fix the flag here?' " Allah's Apostle ordered
Khalid bin Al-Walid to enter Mecca from its upper part from Ka'da
while the Prophet himself entered from Kuda. Two men from the
cavalry of Khalid bin Al-Wahd named Hubaish bin Al-Ash'ar and Kurz
bin Jabir Al-Fihri were martyred on that day.
Volume 5, Book 59, Number 578
Narrated 'Abdullah bin Mughaffal:
I saw Allah's Apostle on the day of the Conquest of Mecca over his
she-camel, reciting Surat-al-Fath in a vibrant quivering tone. (The
sub-narrator, Mu'awiya added, "Were I not afraid that the people may
gather around me, I would recite in vibrant quivering tone as he
(i.e. 'Abdullah bin Mughaffal) did, imitating Allah's Apostle.")
Volume 5, Book 59, Number 579
Narrated 'Amr bin 'Uthman:
Usama bin Zaid said during the Conquest (of Mecca), "O Allah's
Apostle! Where will we encamp tomorrow?" The Prophet said, "But has
'Aqil left for us any house to lodge in?" He then added, "No
believer will inherit an infidel's property, and no infidel will
inherit the property of a believer." Az-Zuhri was asked, "Who
inherited Abu Talib?" Az-Zuhri replied, "Ail and Talib inherited him."
Volume 5, Book 59, Number 580
Narrated Abu Huraira:
Allah's Apostle said, "If Allah makes us victorious, our encamping
place will be Al-Khaif, the place where the infidels took an oath to
be loyal to Heathenism (by boycotting Banu Hashim, the Prophet's
folk)."
