حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ . ح وحَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ الْمُصَفَّى ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْمُغِيرَةِ جَمِيعًا ، عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ عَمْرٍو ،عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ جُبَيْرِ بْنِ نُفَيْرٍ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ عَوْفِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ، أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " كَانَ إِذَا أَتَاهُ الْفَيْءُ قَسَمَهُ فِي يَوْمِهِ ، فَأَعْطَى الْآهِلَ حَظَّيْنِ وَأَعْطَى الْعَزَبَ حَظًّا " ، زَادَ ابْنُ الْمُصَفَّى : فَدُعِينَا وَكُنْتُ أُدْعَى قَبْلَ عَمَّارٍ فَدُعِيتُ فَأَعْطَانِي حَظَّيْنِ وَكَانَ لِي أَهْلٌ ، ثُمَّ دُعِيَ بَعْدِي عَمَّارُ بْنُ يَاسِرٍ فَأَعْطَى لَهُ حَظًّا وَاحِدًا .
Narrated Awf bin Malik: When the spoils (fai') came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, he divided it that day ; he gave two portions to a married man and one to a bachelor. The narrator Ibn al-Musaffa added: We were summoned, and I would be summoned before Ammar. So I was summoned and he gave me two portions, for I had a family ; then Ammar bin Yasir was summoned after me and given one.
Explanation & Benefits
Shaykh Umar Farooq Saeedi
Benefits and Issues:
Alongside services rendered for Islam, the personal circumstances and needs of a Muslim are also taken into consideration from the Bayt al-Mal (public treasury).
The one who has greater responsibilities is given a larger share.
Whereas, in general, other economic systems do not take this into account at all.
Furthermore, delaying the fulfillment of rights is in no way appropriate.
