حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ بْنُ زِيَادٍ عَنْ خُصَيْفٍ حَدَّثَنَا مِقْسَمٌ قَالَ قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ نَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ مَا کَانَ لِنَبِيٍّ أَنْ يَغُلَّ فِي قَطِيفَةٍ حَمْرَائَ افْتُقِدَتْ يَوْمَ بَدْرٍ فَقَالَ بَعْضُ النَّاسِ لَعَلَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَخَذَهَا فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ مَا کَانَ لِنَبِيٍّ أَنْ يَغُلَّ إِلَی آخِرِ الْآيَةِ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَی هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ وَقَدْ رَوَی عَبْدُ السَّلَامِ بْنُ حَرْبٍ عَنْ خُصَيْفٍ نَحْوَ هَذَا وَرَوَی بَعْضُهُمْ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ عَنْ خُصَيْفٍ عَنْ مِقْسَمٍ وَلَمْ يَذْکُرْ فِيهِ عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ
جامع ترمذی · Hadith 3009
Narrated Khusaif: from Miqsam that Ibn 'Abbas said: This Ayah: It is not for a Prophet to illegally take a part of the booty... (3:161) was revealed about a red robe that was missing from the Day of Badr. Some of the people said: 'Perhaps the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) took it.' So Allah, Blessed and Most High, revealed: It is not for a Prophet to illegally take a part of the booty... until the end of the Ayah.
