English translation

4996. It was narrated from Sa'd that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ distributed (some spoils of war) and gave to some people but withheld from others. I said: "O Messenger of Allāh, you gave to so-and-so and so-and-so, and you withheld from so-and-so, who is a believer." He said: "Do not say 'a believer,' say 'a Muslim.'" Ibn Shihāb (one of the narrators) said: The Bedouins say: "We believe". [1] (Sahīh)

Arabic text

4993 - أَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سَلَّامُ بْنُ أَبِي مُطِيعٍ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ مَعْمَرًا، عَنْ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ عَامِرِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ، عَنْ سَعْدٍ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَسَمَ قَسْمًا، فَأَعْطَى نَاسًا، وَمَنَعَ آخَرِينَ، فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، أَعْطَيْتَ فُلَانًا، وَمَنَعْتَ فُلَانًا، وَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ؟ قَالَ: «لَا تَقُلْ مُؤْمِنٌ، وَقُلْ مُسْلِمٌ» قَالَ ابْنُ شِهَابٍ: {قَالَتِ الْأَعْرَابُ آمَنَّا} [الحجرات: 14]
