English translation

3137. It was narrated that Rāfi' bin Khadij said: "We were with the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ in Dhul-Hulaifah in (the land of) Tihāmah. We acquired sheep and camels and the people hastened to put cooking pots on the fires before they had been distributed. The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ came to us and ordered that they be overturned,[1] then he made one camel equivalent to ten sheep.” (Sahih)

Arabic text

3137 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا الْمُحَارِبِيُّ، وَعَبْدُ الرَّحِيمِ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ الثَّوْرِيِّ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ مَسْرُوقٍ، ح وحَدَّثَنَا الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، عَنْ زَائِدَةَ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ مَسْرُوقٍ، عَنْ عَبَايَةَ بْنِ رِفَاعَةَ، عَنْ رَافِعِ بْنِ خَدِيجٍ، قَالَ: كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَنَحْنُ بِذِي الْحُلَيْفَةِ مِنْ تِهَامَةَ، فَأَصَبْنَا إِبِلًا وَغَنَمًا، فَعَجِلَ الْقَوْمُ، فَأَغْلَيْنَا الْقُدُورَ قَبْلَ أَنْ تُقْسَمَ، فَأَتَانَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ «فَأَمَرَ بِهَا، فَأُكْفِئَتْ، ثُمَّ عَدَلَ الْجَزُورَ، بِعَشَرَةٍ مِنَ الْغَنَمِ»

Commentary

In this Hadith Dhul-Hulaifah is not the known place, which is the Miqât of the inhabitants of Al-Madinah, but it is a place in Yemen.
