Sayyiduna Ma'n bin Yazid al-Sulami (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: I and my grandfather gave the pledge of allegiance to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him); I brought a dispute before him (peace and blessings be upon him) and he (peace and blessings be upon him) ruled in my favour; and he (peace and blessings be upon him) made the marriage proposal on my behalf and arranged my marriage. Sayyiduna Ma'n (may Allah be pleased with him) further said: The spoils of war are not lawful until they are distributed, and it is not permissible to take anything from them until they are distributed among the people.
