Musnad Ahmad 17154 — Hadith of al-Irbad ibn Sariyah from the Prophet

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا وَهْبٌ بْنُ خَالِدٍ الْحِمْصِيُّ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَتْنِي أُمُّ حَبِيبَةَ بِنْتُ الْعِرْبَاضِ ، عَنْ أَبِيهَا ، أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يَأْخُذُ الْوَبَرَةَ مِنْ فَيْءِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ ، فَيَقُولُ : " مَا لِي مِنْ هَذَا إِلَّا مِثْلَ مَا لِأَحَدِكُمْ إِلَّا الْخُمُسَ ، وَهُوَ مَرْدُودٌ فِيكُمْ ، فَأَدُّوا الْخَيْطَ وَالْمَخِيطَ فَمَا فَوْقَهُمَا ، وَإِيَّاكُمْ وَالْغُلُولَ ، فَإِنَّهُ عَارٌ وَشَنَارٌ عَلَى صَاحِبِهِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ " . .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna ‘Irbaad (may Allah be pleased with him) that sometimes the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would pick up a single hair from the spoils of war and say: “My share in this is equal to that of any one of you, except for the khums (one-fifth), and that too is returned to you. Therefore, if it is a thread, a needle, or even something less than that, return it, and avoid dishonesty in the spoils of war, for indeed it will be a cause of shame and regret for the dishonest person on the Day of Resurrection.”
قَالَ أَبُو عَبْد الرَّحْمَنِ : وَرَوَى سُفْيَانُ ، عَنْ أَبِي سِنَانٍ ، عَنْ وَهْبٍ هَذَا ، قَالَ 22 عَبْد اللَّهِ : عَبْدُ الْأَعْلَى بْنُ هِلَالٍ ، هُوَ الصَّوَابُ.
The previous hadith is also narrated through this second chain of transmission.
