Those who disliked plunder and forbade it

Sayyiduna Tha'labah bin al-Hakam (may Allah be pleased with him) said: We came upon some goats belonging to the enemy and carried them off (plundered them). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered that the cooking pots be overturned, so we overturned the pots, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Plunder is not lawful."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Yazid (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade plunder and mutilation.

Kulayb narrates from a Companion (may Allah be pleased with him), who said: We were with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) on a military expedition and we were struck by severe hunger. We found some goats and plundered them before they were distributed. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came to us leaning on his bow. He (peace and blessings be upon him) came up to our cooking pots, overturned them with the bow and said: "Plundered property is no more lawful than carrion." (The ruling on both is the same.)

The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "No one plunders something of high value, towards which the Muslims raise their heads, while he is a believer."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that whoever plunders something valuable on account of which he becomes notorious among the Muslims (that is, all of them come to regard this act of his as evil) is not one of us. The narrator said: I asked Abu al-Zubayr (may Allah have mercy on him): Is this reported from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)? He (may Allah have mercy on him) said: Yes, it is narrated from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).
