2745. It was reported from 'Ubaidullāh (who said): "Nāfi' narrated to me, from 'Abdullāh, who said: 'The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ sent us in a detachment towards Najd. Our share of the spoils was twelve camels each, and the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ rewarded us with a Nafl of one additional camel each.'" (Ṣaḥīh)
Abū Dāwūd said: Burd bin Sinān reported it from Nāfi', similar to the narration of 'Ubaidullāh, and Ayyūb reported it from Nāfi', similarly, except that he said: "And we were rewarded a Nafl of one camel each" without mentioning the Prophet ﷺ.

Commentary
The two apparently conflicting version may be reconciled if we conclude that whatever reward the commander gave, the Prophet ﷺ confirmed it. It is because of this ratification by him that the bestowal has been directly attributed to him.
