4238. Narrated Abū Hurairah رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ: Allāh's Messenger ﷺ sent Abān from Al-Madīna to Najd as the commander of a Sariya. Abān and his companions came to the Prophet ﷺ at Khaibar after the Prophet had conquered it, and the reins of their horses were made of the fibre of date palm trees. I said, "O Allāh's Messenger! Do not give them a share of the booty." On that, Abān said (to me), "Strange! You suggest such a thing though you are what you are, O guinea pig coming down from the top of Aḍ-Ḍāl!" On that the Prophet ﷺ said, "O Abān, sit down!" and did not give them any share.
