حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَکْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْأَحْوَصِ عَنْ سِمَاکٍ عَنْ ثَعْلَبَةَ بْنِ الْحَکَمِ قَالَ أَصَبْنَا غَنَمًا لِلْعَدُوِّ فَانْتَهَبْنَاهَا فَنَصَبْنَا قُدُورَنَا فَمَرَّ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِالْقُدُورِ فَأَمَرَ بِهَا فَأُکْفِئَتْ ثُمَّ قَالَ إِنَّ النُّهْبَةَ لَا تَحِلُّ
ابن ماجہ · Hadith 3938
It was narrated that Tha'labah bin Hakam said: "We came across some of the enemy's sheep and plundered them, and set up our cooking pots. The Prophet P.B.U.H passed by the pots and ordered that they be overturned, then he said: 'Plunder is not permissible."(Hasan)
