English translation

3858. It was narrated that Abū Hurairah said: "We were with the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ in the year of Khaibar, and we did not get any spoils of war except for wealth, goods and clothes. Then a man from Banu Aḍ-Dubaib, who was called Rifā'ah bin Zaid, gave the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ a black slave who was called Mid'am. The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ set out for Wadī Al-Qura. When we were in Wadī Al-Qura, while Mid'am was unloading the luggage of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ, an arrow came and killed him. The people said: 'Congratulations! You will go to Paradise,' but the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'No, by the One in Whose hand is my soul! The cloak that he took from the spoils of war on the day of Khaibar is burning him with fire.' When the people heard that, a man brought one or two shoelaces to the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ and the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'One or two shoelaces of fire.'" (Ṣaḥīḥ)

3827 - قَالَ: الْحَارِثُ بْنُ مِسْكِينٍ، قِرَاءَةً عَلَيْهِ وَأَنَا أَسْمَعُ، عَنْ ابْنِ الْقَاسِمِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي مَالِكٌ، عَنْ ثَوْرِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الْغَيْثِ، مَوْلَى ابْنِ مُطِيعٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَامَ خَيْبَرَ فَلَمْ نَغْنَمْ إِلَّا الْأَمْوَالَ وَالْمَتَاعَ وَالثِّيَابَ، فَأَهْدَى رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَنِي الضُّبَيْبِ، يُقَالُ لَهُ: رِفَاعَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ غُلَامًا أَسْوَدَ يُقَالُ لَهُ: مِدْعَمٌ، فَوُجِّهَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِلَى وَادِي الْقُرَى حَتَّى إِذَا كُنَّا بِوَادِي الْقُرَى، بَيْنَا مِدْعَمٌ يَحُطُّ رَحْلَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَجَاءَهُ سَهْمٌ فَأَصَابَهُ فَقَتَلَهُ، فَقَالَ النَّاسُ: هَنِيئًا لَكَ الْجَنَّةُ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «كَلَّا وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ، إِنَّ الشَّمْلَةَ الَّتِي أَخَذَهَا يَوْمَ خَيْبَرَ مِنَ الْمَغَانِمِ لَتَشْتَعِلُ عَلَيْهِ نَارًا» فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ النَّاسُ بِذَلِكَ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ بِشِرَاكٍ، أَوْ بِشِرَاكَيْنِ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «شِرَاكٌ، أَوْ شِرَاكَانِ مِنْ نَارٍ»

Commentary

Meaning; while they did acquire some land, Abû Hurairah said: "We did not get any spoils of war except..." and he did not mention, land. Thereby, the author intends to imply that the term: 'wealth' (Amwâ) can include land.
