Musnad Abi Ya'la 2438 — on the day of the Battle of Badr a red velvet
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ، حَدَّثَنَا شَرِيكٌ، عَنْ خُصَيْفٍ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ: فُقِدَتْ قَطِيفَةٌ حَمْرَاءُ يَوْمَ بَدْرٍ مِمَّا أُصِيبَ مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ فَقَالَ أُنَاسٌ: لَعَلَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَخَذَهَا، فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ {وَمَا كَانَ لِنَبِيٍّ أَنْ يَغُلَّ} [آل عمران: 161] قَالَ خُصَيْفٌ: فَقُلْتُ لِسَعِيدٍ: مَا كَانَ لِنَبِيٍّ أَنْ يَغُلَّ؟ فَقَالَ: بَلْ يَغُلُّ وَيَقْتُلُ أَيْضًا "
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that on the day of the Battle of Badr a red velvet sheet from the spoils taken from the polytheists went missing, and some people said: "Perhaps the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) took it." At this Allah Almighty revealed this verse: "And it is not for any prophet to act unfaithfully (with the spoils)." Khusayf (may Allah have mercy on him) says: I asked Sa'id (may Allah have mercy on him): Does (the verse mean) "It is not possible for a prophet to act unfaithfully"? He replied: "Rather (the meaning is that) a prophet too can be dealt with unfaithfully, and he can be killed as well."
