[4555] 32 - (1747) It was narrated that Hammâm bin Munabbih said: This is what Abû Hurairah narrated from the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ, and he mentioned a number of Ahâdîth, including the following: The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: "One of the Prophets went out on a campaign, and he said to his people: No man should accompany me who has gotten married and wants to consummate the marriage but has not yet done so, or a man who has built a house but has not yet put the roof on, or a man who has bought some sheep or pregnant she-camels and is waiting for them to give birth. He went out to fight, and he approached a town at the time of Asr prayer, or close to that time. He said to the sun: You are under the command of Allâh and I am under the command of Allâh. O Allâh, halt it for me for a while." So it was halted for him until Allâh granted him victory.
They gathered the booty that they had seized, and the fire came close to consume it, but it did not touch it. He said: "There is theft from the booty among you. Let one man from each tribe swear allegiance to me." They swore allegiance to him, and the hand of one man stuck to his hand. He said: "There is theft from the booty among you. Let your tribe swear allegiance to me." They swore allegiance to him, and the hands of two or three men stuck to his hand. He said: "There is theft from the booty among you; you have stolen from the booty." They brought forth to him gold equal to the size of a cow's head. They placed it with the wealth which was on the ground, then the fire came and consumed it. The booty was not permissible for anyone before us, but Allâh (blessed and exalted is He) saw our weakness and vulnerability, so He permitted it to us.
