The Mother of the Believers, Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her), narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) conquered Khaybar and gave it to its inhabitants, the Jews, on the condition of half the produce. Then when the fruit ripened, he (peace and blessings be upon him) sent Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Rawahah (may Allah be pleased with him) to them. He said: "Take sixty wasqs of dates from me, and whatever is on the tops of the palm trees will be ours." The Jews said: "Then you would be wronging us." He said: "Very well, then give me sixty wasqs, and whatever is on the tops of the palm trees will be yours." The Jews said: "By this (justice) the heavens and the earth stand, and by it you will be granted victory."
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "No one narrated this hadith from Hisham bin Urwah except Ikrimah, and al-Husayn bin Hafs is alone in narrating it."
