٣٥٥٣٤ - حدثنا محمد بن حجاج عن مطرف عن الشعبي أنه سئل عن (١) النبي ﷺ والصفي فقال: (إنما) (٢) سهم النبي ﷺ مثل سهم رجل من المسلمين، وأما ⦗٤٢٨⦘ الصفي فكانت له غرة يختارها من غنيمة المسلمين إن شاء جارية وإن شاء فرسًا، أي ذلك شاء (٣).
Hazrat Sha'bi was asked about the share of booty and the "safiy" of the Noble Prophet (peace be upon him). Hazrat Sha'bi (may Allah have mercy on him) said: Just as an ordinary Muslim had a share in the booty, so did the Noble Prophet (peace be upon him) have a share, and in any case, "safiy" refers to that portion which Allah's Prophet would separate for himself from the Muslims' booty, whether it was a slave-girl, a horse, or anything else.
