Hadith 767
عن ابن عمر رضي الله عنهما : أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم عامل أهل خيبر بشطر ما يخرج منها من ثمر أو زرع. متفق عليه. وفي رواية لهما : فسألوه أن يقرهم بها على أن يكفوا عملها ولهم نصف الثمر فقال لهم رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم : « نقركم بها على ذلك ما شئنا » فقروا بها حتى أجلاهم عمر. ولمسلم : أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم دفع إلى يهود خيبر نخل خيبر وأرضها على أن يعتملوها من أموالهم ولهم شطر ثمرها.
Narrated Ibn 'Umar (RA): Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) had agreed with the people of Khaibar to give (to the Muslim authority) half what it produced of fruits or crops. [Agreed upon]. A narration by al-Bukhari and Muslim has: They asked him (ﷺ) to allow them to stay on the land, on condition that they should do all the cultivation and have half the dates. Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) replied to them, "We shall allow you to stay on the land, on that condition, as long as we wish." So they remained on the land till 'Umar (RA) expelled them. Muslim has: Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) handed over to the Jews of Khaibar, the palm-trees and the land of Khaibar, on condition that they should employ their own resources in working on it and keep half of its produce.
