What they said on a man who buys a slave girl from the spoils

Husayn (may Allah have mercy on him) said: On the day of the Battle of al-Qadisiyyah, a man bought a slave woman from the spoils of war, and she brought along jewellery that she had with her. The man came to Sayyiduna Sa'd bin Abi Waqqas (may Allah be pleased with him) and informed him about this. He said: Put this jewellery into the spoils of war of the Muslims.

Abu Ishaq (may Allah have mercy on him) said that Muhammad bin Zayd (may Allah have mercy on him) said: I bought a slave woman from the khumus (one-fifth) property, and I found 15 dinars with her. I brought those dinars to Abd al-Rahman bin Khalid bin al-Walid (may Allah have mercy on him), and he said: These dinars are yours.

Al-Shaybani (may Allah have mercy on him) said that Imam al-Sha'bi (may Allah have mercy on him) said concerning a man who buys a captive slave woman from the spoils of war and also finds silver with her: He must return that silver.
