Hadith 4147
اُردوEn
أَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ يَحْيَى ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا مَحْبُوبٌ ، قَالَ : أَنْبَأَنَا أَبُو إِسْحَاق ، عَنْ زَائِدَةَ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ بْنِ أَبِي سُلَيْمَانَ ، عَنْ عَطَاءٍ فِي قَوْلِهِ عَزَّ وَجَلّ : وَاعْلَمُوا أَنَّمَا غَنِمْتُمْ مِنْ شَيْءٍ فَأَنَّ لِلَّهِ خُمُسَهُ وَلِلرَّسُولِ وَلِذِي الْقُرْبَى سورة الأنفال آية 41 ، قَالَ : " خُمُسُ اللَّهِ وَخُمُسُ رَسُولِهِ وَاحِدٌ , كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَحْمِلُ مِنْهُ , وَيُعْطِي مِنْهُ , وَيَضَعُهُ حَيْثُ شَاءَ , وَيَصْنَعُ بِهِ مَا شَاءَ " .
´It was narrated that 'Ata' said concerning the saying of Allah, the Mighty and Sublime:` "And know that whatever of spoils of war that you may gain, verily, (1/5th) of it is assigned to Allah, and to the Messenger, and to the near relatives (of the Messenger (Muhammad)" "The Khumus (one-fifth) of Allah and of His Messenger is the same. The Messenger of Allah used to provide mounts (for jihad) with it, and give some (to the poor), and distribute it however he wanted, and do with it whatever he wanted."
Explanation & Benefits
Hafiz Muhammad Ameen
Benefit: “It is only one” means that the mention of Allah, exalted is He, is for the sake of blessing (tabarruk). Allah, exalted is He, does not have a separate share; rather, the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) had complete authority over the khums. Some are of the opinion that Allah’s share should be spent on the House of Allah (Bayt Allah). The purpose of mentioning this hadith here is to clarify that the entire khums was entrusted to the discretion of the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam). No one else had an assigned share in it. After his passing, this authority belonged to the ruler of the time.
