Hadith 1331
Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) once said: "I give (wealth) to the Quraysh (those who have newly embraced Islam) in order to win their hearts, because they are still close to the period of ignorance."

Hadith 1332
Narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him): Some people from the Ansar presented themselves to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him). When Allah granted His Messenger the spoils of Hawazin as much as He willed, the Prophet (peace be upon him) began giving some people from the Quraysh one hundred camels each. Some of the Ansar began to say, "May Allah forgive the Prophet (peace be upon him); he is giving so much to the Quraysh and not giving to us, even though the blood of the disbelievers is still dripping from our swords." Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) says that this conversation of theirs was conveyed to the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him), so he called the Ansar and gathered them in a leather tent, and he did not call anyone else with them. When the people had gathered, the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) came and said, "What is this matter that has reached me from you?" The wise ones among them said, "O Messenger of Allah! None of our wise people have said anything; rather, it was the younger ones among us who said this..." The rest of this hadith will come later. (See the chapter: The Account of the Battle of Ta’if, which took place in Shawwal, 8 AH.)

Hadith 1333
Sayyiduna Jubair bin Mut’im (may Allah be pleased with him) says that while he was with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and with him were those people who were returning from Hunain, the Bedouins began to ask the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) for things, until they pushed him towards a thorny tree, so much so that his cloak got caught in it. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) stood up and said: “Give me my cloak. If I had as many camels as these trees, I would distribute them among you, and you would never find me miserly, a liar, or faint-hearted.”

Hadith 1334
'Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) says that I was walking with the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), and at that time, he was wearing a thick-edged Najrani cloak. Then a Bedouin caught hold of him and pressed him hard, so much so that I saw on the outer part of the blessed neck of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) the mark left by the edge of the cloak due to his forceful pulling. After that, the Bedouin said, "Give me something from the wealth of Allah that you have." So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) looked towards him and smiled, and then ordered that something be given to him.'

Hadith 1335
Sayyiduna Abdullah (bin Mas'ud) (may Allah be pleased with him) says that when, on the day of Hunayn (the Battle of Hunayn), the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) gave some people more (from the spoils of war) than others—such as giving Aqra' bin Habis one hundred camels, and giving 'Uyaynah (may Allah be pleased with him) the same amount, and giving some of the Arab chiefs more as well—a man said, "By Allah! This is a distribution in which there has been no justice," or (he said), "Allah's pleasure has not been intended in this." So I said, "By Allah, I will inform the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) about this." So I went to him and informed him. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, "If Allah and His Messenger (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) do not act justly, then who will act justly? May Allah have mercy on Musa (peace be upon him); he was harmed with even greater than this, and he was patient."
