عَنْ بُشَيْرِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ عَنْ رِجَالٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَدْرَكَهُمْ يَذْكُرُونَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ حِينَ ظَهَرَ عَلَى خَيْبَرَ وَصَارَتْ خَيْبَرُ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَالْمُسْلِمِينَ ضَعُفُوا عَنْ عَمَلِهَا فَدَفَعُوهَا إِلَى الْيَهُودِ يَقُومُونَ عَلَيْهَا وَيُنْفِقُونَ عَلَيْهَا عَلَى أَنَّ لَهُمْ نِصْفَ مَا يَخْرُجُ مِنْهَا فَقَسَمَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَى سِتَّةٍ وَثَلَاثِينَ سَهْمًا جَمَعَ كُلُّ سَهْمٍ مِائَةَ سَهْمٍ فَجَعَلَ نِصْفَ ذَلِكَ كُلِّهِ لِلْمُسْلِمِينَ وَكَانَ فِي ذَلِكَ النِّصْفِ سِهَامُ الْمُسْلِمِينَ وَسَهْمُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَعَهَا وَجَعَلَ النِّصْفَ الْآخَرَ لِمَنْ يَنْزِلُ بِهِ مِنَ الْوُفُودِ وَالْأُمُورِ وَنَوَائِبِ النَّاسِ
It is narrated from Busheer bin Yasar that he found some of the Companions of the Messenger of Allah mentioning this incident: When the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, conquered Khaybar and Khaybar became the property of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, and the Muslims, while the Muslims were unable to manage all the work of that land, he entrusted it to the Jews themselves so that they would fulfill its responsibilities and bear its expenses, and in return, they would receive half of the produce. The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, divided it into thirty-six portions, each portion consisting of one hundred shares. From the share of Khaybar’s land that would come to the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, he would distribute half of it among the Muslims in such a way that there would be shares for the Muslims as well as for the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him. The remaining half he, peace and blessings be upon him, would spend on delegations, affairs, and other incidents and important matters concerning the people.
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … From this hadith it is understood that half of Khaybar was conquered by force and half through a peace treaty. Therefore, the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) distributed the wealth of half of Khaybar, which was conquered by force, among the mujahideen as spoils of war (ghanimah). This included his (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) special share and the khumus (one-fifth portion). As for the wealth obtained from the half that was conquered through a peace treaty, it was dedicated (waqf) for the specific and general interests of the Muslims.
