Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 35443 — Those who said: he gets nothing if he

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Tariq bin Shihab al-Ahmasi (may Allah be pleased with him) that a hundred men of Banu Utarid from the people of Basrah went on a campaign, and they reinforced Sayyiduna Ammar (may Allah be pleased with him) from Kufah. Sayyiduna Ammar (may Allah be pleased with him) set out before the battle, and later he said: "We are your partners in the spoils." A man from Banu Utarid stood up and said: "O slave with the cropped ear!" (Sayyiduna Ammar's ear had been lost in jihad.) "Do you want us to give you a share of our spoils?" Sayyiduna Ammar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "You have reproached me with my best and most beloved ear." Then a letter was written to Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) about this, and Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) wrote in reply: "A share of the spoils goes to the one who takes part in the battle."
