Spoils and buying them before they are divided

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), on the day of the Battle of Khaybar, forbade selling before the division of the spoils.

Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: If a person sells his share before the division of the spoils, there is no harm in it.

Abu Marzuq (may Allah have mercy on him) said: We took part in jihad with Sayyiduna Ruwayfi' bin Thabit al-Ansari (may Allah be pleased with him) toward the West, and we conquered a place called Jarbah. Sayyiduna Ruwayfi' (may Allah be pleased with him) stood up to deliver a sermon and said: I will say to you only what I heard from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), which the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to us on the day of Khaybar: "Whoever believes in Allah and the Hereafter should not sell it before the division of the spoils."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade buying the spoils before their division.

It is likewise narrated from Abu Qilabah.

Sa'id bin al-Musayyib disliked buying anything from the spoils before their division, and he would say: It contains gold and silver.

Al-Hasan and Muhammad (bin Sirin) (may Allah have mercy on them both) also disliked selling the spoils before they were divided.

Ata said that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade this on the day of Khaybar.

The same is also narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both).

It is also narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade this.

Shu'bah said on another occasion: And it is known what they are.
