English translation

2694. It was reported from 'Amr bin Shu'āib, from his father, from his grandfather — about this narrative — he said: "Then the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'Return their women and children to them, and anyone who keeps anything from this Faī' he will be compensated for it by six camels from the first Faī' which Allāh, Most High, grants us.' Then the Prophet ﷺ went to a camel and took some hair of it's hump, and said: 'O people! I am not taking anything from this Faī', not even this (hair),' he raised his two fingers, and said: 'except the Khumus (the fifth), and this Khumus is returned among you, so give back even the threads and the needles.' A man stood up with a ball of hair in his hand, and said: 'I had taken this to fix my saddle blanket with it.' The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ then said: 'Whatever belongs to me and Banū 'Abdul-Muṭṭalib, you can take it.' He said: 'After what I have seen transpire, then I have no desire for it at all, and discarded it.'"[1] (Hasan)

2694 - حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شُعَيْبٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ فِي هَذِهِ الْقِصَّةِ، قَالَ: فَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «رُدُّوا عَلَيْهِمْ نِسَاءَهُمْ وَأَبْنَاءَهُمْ، فَمَنْ مَسَكَ بِشَيْءٍ مِنْ هَذَا الْفَيْءِ، فَإِنَّ لَهُ بِهِ عَلَيْنَا سِتَّ فَرَائِضَ مِنْ أَوَّلِ شَيْءٍ يُفِيئُهُ اللَّهُ عَلَيْنَا»، ثُمَّ دَنَا - يَعْنِي النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - مِنْ بَعِيرٍ، فَأَخَذَ وَبَرَةً مِنْ سَنَامِهِ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: «يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ، إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ لِي مِنْ هَذَا الْفَيْءِ شَيْءٌ، وَلَا هَذَا - وَرَفَعَ أُصْبُعَيْهِ - إِلَّا الْخُمُسَ، وَالْخُمُسُ مَرْدُودٌ عَلَيْكُمْ، فَأَدُّوا الْخِيَاطَ وَالْمِخْيَطَ». فَقَامَ رَجُلٌ فِي يَدِهِ كُبَّةٌ مِنْ شَعْرٍ فَقَالَ: أَخَذْتُ هَذِهِ لِأُصْلِحَ بِهَا بَرْذَعَةً لِي. فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «أَمَّا مَا كَانَ لِي وَلِبَنِي عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ فَهُوَ لَكَ». فَقَالَ: أَمَّا إِذْ بَلَغَتْ مَا أَرَى فَلَا أَرَبَ لِي فِيها وَنَبَذَهَا
