3127. ‘Abdullāh bin ‘Amr said: “I heard the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ say: ‘There is no raiding party that goes out in the cause of Allāh and acquires some spoils of war, but they have been given two-thirds of their reward in this world instead of in the Hereafter, and there remains one-third (in the Hereafter). And if they do not acquire any spoils of war, then all of their reward (will come in the Hereafter).” (Sahîh)
3125 - أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا حَيْوَةُ، وَذَكَرَ آخَرَ، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو هَانِئٍ الْخَوْلَانِيُّ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْحُبُلِيَّ، يَقُولُ: سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عَمْرٍو، يَقُولُ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «مَا مِنْ غَازِيَةٍ تَغْزُو فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ فَيُصِيبُونَ غَنِيمَةً، إِلَّا تَعَجَّلُوا ثُلُثَيْ أَجْرِهِمْ مِنَ الْآخِرَةِ وَيَبْقَى لَهُمُ الثُّلُثُ، فَإِنْ لَمْ يُصِيبُوا غَنِيمَةً تَمَّ لَهُمْ أَجْرُهُمْ»

We learn that the achiever of the spoils deserves the recompense, even if his intention has not been to gain the spoils. Only such shall receive the full recompense, in the Hereafter alone, who does not receive any worldly gain.
