1559. Abū Mūsā narrated: "I arrived upon the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ at Khaibar along with a group of the Ash'arī tribe. He gave us shares along with those that conquered it." (Ṣaḥīḥ)
This Hadīth is Hasan Ṣaḥīḥ Gharīb. This is acted upon according to some of the people of knowledge. Al-Awzā'ī said: "Whoever meets up with the Muslims before the horses', share is distributed, then he is given a share." [And Buraid's (a narrator) Kunyah is Abū Buraidah and he is trustworthy. Sufyān Ath-Thawri, Ibn 'Uyainah and others report from him].

Commentary
A share from the spoils of war is the right of those who have participated in the battle, if some people arrive late when the battle is over, and the spoils have not yet distributed, keeping in view the circumstances and needs of the latecomers just to comfort them, a small share can be given to them after consultation, and with the consent of the other warriors. (Tuhfat Al-Ahwadhi v.2. p.381 and Al-Mughni.)
