3013. It was narrated from Abū Khālid, meaning Sulaimān, from Yahya bin Sa'eed, from Bushair bin Yasār who said: "When Allāh granted Khaibar to His Prophet ﷺ as Fai', he divided it into thirty-six portions, each of which included
one hundred shares. He kept half for emergencies and Al-Waṭīḥah and Al-Kutaibah and their environs, and the other half he divided among the Muslims, which was Ash-Shaqqah and An-Naṭāh and their environs (these were fortresses in Khaibar), and the share of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ was among the latter.” (Hasan)

Commentary
The last of the fortresses that the Muslims conquered through fighting were in areas known as An-Naṭāh and Ash-Shaqqah. The Jews fled for life from there and took refuge in the section of the city known as Al-Kutaibah. When the Muslims laid siege around the fortresses and the siege prolonged, the Jews surrendered them to the Prophet ﷺ, on conditions of pardon from death for the fighters and freedom for their children.
