Jihad (Kitab Al-Jihad)

ENGLISH

Mus’ab bin Sa’d reported on the authority of his father (Sa’ad bin Abi Waqqas) “I brought a sword to the Prophet(ﷺ) on the day of the Badr and I said (to him) Messenger of Allaah(ﷺ) , Allaah has healed up my breast from the enemy today, so give me this sword. He said “This sword is neither mine nor yours. I then went away saying “today this will be given to a man who has not been put to trial like me. Meanwhile a messenger and came to me and said “Respond, I thought something was revealed about me owing to my speech. I came and the Prophet (ﷺ) said to me “You asked me for this sword, but this was neither mine nor yours. Now Allaah has given it to me, hence it is yours. He then recited “they ask you concerning (things taken as) spoils of war. Say “(Such) spoils are at the disposal of Allaah and the Messenger. Abu Dawud said “According to the reading of the Qur’an of Ibn Mas’ud the verse goes. They ask you concerning (things taken as ) spoils of war.
