Hadith #27
Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي عِكْرِمَةُ مَوْلَى ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ زَعَمَ أَنَّ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ أَخْبَر
َهُ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَسَمَ غَنَمًا يَوْمَ النَّحْرِ فِي أَصْحَابِهِ وَقَالَ اذْبَحُوهَا لِعُمْرَتِكُمْ فَإِنَّهَا تُجْزِئُ عَنْكُمْ فَأَصَابَ سَعْدَ بْنَ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ تَيْسٌ
Isnad Chain
English Translation
Hajjaj ibn Muhammad narrated to us, from Ibn Jurayj, he said: 'Ikrimah, the freed slave of Ibn 'Abbas, informed me — he claimed that Ibn 'Abbas informed him — that the Prophet ﷺ divided the spoils of Hunayn. He gave the new converts (al-mu'allafat qulubuhum) gifts to soften their hearts toward Islam, while the Ansar did not receive the same. The Ansar spoke among themselves about this, so the Prophet ﷺ gathered them and said: 'Are you not pleased that the people go with sheep and camels while you return with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ to your homes? If the people took one valley and the Ansar took another, I would take the valley of the Ansar.'
