6707. Narrated Abū Hurairah رضي الله عنه: We went out in the company of Allāh's Messenger on the day of (the battle of) Khaibar, and we did not get any gold or silver as war booty, but we got property in the form
of things and clothes. Then a man, called Rifā'a bin Zaid, from the tribe of Banī Aḍ-Dubaib presented a slave named Mid'am to Allāh's Messenger ﷺ. Allāh's Messenger ﷺ headed towards the valley of Al-Qurā, and when he was in the valley of Al-Qurā, an arrow thrown by an unidentified person, struck and killed Mid'am who was making a she-camel of Allāh's Messenger ﷺ kneel down. The people said, "Congratulations to him (the slave) for gaining Paradise." Allāh's Messenger ﷺ said, "No! By Him in Whose Hand my soul is, for the sheet which he stole from the war booty before its distribution on the day of Khaibar, is now burning over him." When the people heard that, a man brought one or two Shirāk (leather straps of shoes) to the Prophet ﷺ. The Prophet ﷺ said, "A Shirāk of fire, or two Shirāk of fire."
