Hadith 4
Chapters on Tafsir
Narrated Khusaif:
from Miqsam that Ibn 'Abbas said: "This Ayah: It is not for a Prophet (ﷺ) to illegally take a part of the booty... (3:161) was revealed about a red robe that was missing from the Day of Badr. Some of the people said: 'Perhaps the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) took it.' So Allah, Blessed and Most High, revealed: It is not for a Prophet (ﷺ) to illegally take a part of the booty... until the end of the Ayah."
