Amr bin Shu'ayb narrates from his father, and he from his father, that before the command of the khumus (one-fifth) in booty was revealed, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would set aside an award (a certain portion). Then, when the verse of the Noble Qur'an, 'Whatever you take as spoils of war, one fifth of it belongs to Allah' [Al-Anfal: 41], was revealed, the extra portion that used to be given was ended, and it came to be within one fifth of the khumus. That is the share of Allah and of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him).

Makhul and Ikrimah (may Allah have mercy on them both) said that the verse of the Noble Qur'an, 'They ask you about the spoils of war. Say: The spoils of war belong to Allah and the Messenger' [Al-Anfal: 1], was revealed, and the booty belonged to Allah and His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), until the other verse of the Noble Qur'an, 'And know that whatever you take as spoils of war, one fifth of it belongs to Allah', abrogated it.
