عَنْ صَخْرِ بْنِ عَيْلَةَ أَنَّ قَوْمًا مِنْ بَنِي سُلَيْمٍ فَرُّوا عَنْ أَرْضِهِمْ حِينَ جَاءَ الْإِسْلَامُ فَأَخَذْتُهَا فَأَسْلَمُوا فَخَاصَمُونِي فِيهَا إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَرَدَّهَا عَلَيْهِمْ وَقَالَ إِذَا أَسْلَمَ الرَّجُلُ فَهُوَ أَحَقُّ بِأَرْضِهِ وَمَالِهِ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Sakhr bin ‘Ailah (may Allah be pleased with him) that when Islam came, some people from Banu Sulaym fled from their land. I took possession of their land. When they became Muslim, they brought this dispute to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) returned the land to them and said: When a person becomes Muslim, he is more entitled to his land and wealth.
