حَدَّثَنَا يُوسُفُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ بْنِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ حَمَّادِ بْنِ زَيْدِ بْنِ دِرْهَمٍ الْقَاضِي ، حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ السِّخْتِيَانِيِّ ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي حَيَّانَ التَّيْمِيِّ ، عَنْ أَبِي زُرْعَةَ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ جَرِيرٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ "ذَكَرَ الْغُلُولَ ، فَقَالَ : لِيَحْذَرْ أَحَدُكُمْ أَنْ يَجِيءَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ بِبَعِيرٍ عَلَى عُنُقِهِ لَهُ رُغَاءٌ "، لَمْ يَرْوِهِ عَنْ أَيُّوبَ ، إِلا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ ، تَفَرَّدَ بِهِ سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ

Hadith Commentary:
After the victory of Islam, whatever wealth is found on the battlefield is all called war booty (mal-e-ghanīmah).
It must be formally collected with the leader (amir) of the Muslims.
Later, that wealth will be distributed according to the prescribed Islamic division.
Whoever commits treachery in this matter is a great criminal in the sight of Allah, as has been stated in this hadith.
A goat, a horse, a camel—all these things are mentioned as examples.
In another narration, even one who steals a cloak from the war booty is declared to be among the people of Hell.
Accordingly, that hadith is mentioned further ahead.
Al-Muhallab said: This hadith is a warning (wa‘īd) for those upon whom Allah will carry out His threat among the people of disobedience, and it is possible that the carrying (of the stolen item) mentioned is necessary as a punishment for him, so that he is disgraced before all witnesses. As for after that, the matter is with Allah—He may punish him or forgive him. Others have said: This hadith explains His, the Exalted’s, statement:
“He will bring forth what he has stolen on the Day of Resurrection,” meaning he will come carrying it on his neck (Fath).
That is, in this hadith there is a warning for the people of disobedience.
It is possible that this carrying is necessary as a punishment for him, so that he is humiliated before everyone; after that, Allah has the choice—He may punish him or forgive him.
This hadith is also an explanation of the noble verse:
(Aal Imran: 161)
—that the sinner will bring that treachery on the Day of Resurrection, carrying it on his neck.

➊
Whatever wealth or items are found on the battlefield after victory are called war booty (mal-e-ghanīmah). These should be formally submitted to the commander of the army. After that, according to the prescribed Islamic distribution, they will be given to the warriors. Whoever commits treachery regarding this war booty is considered a great criminal in the sight of Allah. The items mentioned in the hadith are stated as examples. Even someone who steals just a sheet from the war booty is declared to be destined for Hell.
➋
This hadith also serves as an explanation of the noble verse (). That is, whatever treachery is committed in this world, on the Day of Resurrection, the person will bring it upon his shoulders before all of creation, and the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) will rebuke him, saying: “I have no authority concerning you. I conveyed Allah’s message to you. Now, no excuse will be acceptable for you.”
