وعن رويفع بن ثابت رضي الله عنه قال : قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم : « من كان يؤمن بالله واليوم الآخر فلا يركب دابة من فيء المسلمين حتى إذا أعجفها ردها فيه ولا يلبس ثوبا من فيء المسلمين حتى إذا أخلقه رده فيه » أخرجه أبو داود والدارمي ورجاله لا بأس بهم.
Ruaifi’ bin Thabit (RAA) narrated that The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “He who believes in Allah and the Hereafter must not ride on an animal belonging to the booty of the Muslims and put it back when he has emaciated it, or wear a garment belonging to the booty of the Muslims and put it back when it is worn.” Related by Abu Dawud and Ad- Darimi.

Takhrij:
««إسناد حسن» Narrated by Abu Dawud, Kitab al-Jihad, Chapter: Regarding a man benefiting from something of the spoils, Hadith: 2708, and al-Darimi: 2/230.
Explanation:
This hadith establishes that clothing and mounts obtained from war booty (ghanimah) may be used on the battlefield when needed. However, it is prohibited to benefit from a mount in such a way that it becomes weak and emaciated, or to use clothing to the extent that it becomes worn out and old. Therefore, if one fulfills his need without weakening the mount or wearing out the clothing, then it is permissible.

Benefits and Issues:
Allah Ta'ala has commanded to take only according to one's due share in matters where rights have been prescribed.
And in general permissible matters, He has commanded mutual consideration and compassion.
Whereas in looting and snatching, instead of entitlement, force and power are used.
And some receive more while others receive less.
And many are left deprived.
Therefore, this manner of conduct is not permissible.
