حَدَّثَنَا هَنَّادُ بْنُ السَّرِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي بَکْرٍ عَنْ عَاصِمٍ عَنْ مُصْعَبِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ جِئْتُ إِلَی النَّبِيِّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَوْمَ بَدْرٍ بِسَيْفٍ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ اللَّهَ قَدْ شَفَی صَدْرِي الْيَوْمَ مِنْ الْعَدُوِّ فَهَبْ لِي هَذَا السَّيْفَ قَالَ إِنَّ هَذَا السَّيْفَ لَيْسَ لِي وَلَا لَکَ فَذَهَبْتُ وَأَنَا أَقُولُ يُعْطَاهُ الْيَوْمَ مَنْ لَمْ يُبْلِ بَلَائِي فَبَيْنَمَا أَنَا إِذْ جَائَنِي الرَّسُولُ فَقَالَ أَجِبْ فَظَنَنْتُ أَنَّهُ نَزَلَ فِيَّ شَيْئٌ بِکَلَامِي فَجِئْتُ فَقَالَ لِي النَّبِيُّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنَّکَ سَأَلْتَنِي هَذَا السَّيْفَ وَلَيْسَ هُوَ لِي وَلَا لَکَ وَإِنَّ اللَّهَ قَدْ جَعَلَهُ لِي فَهُوَ لَکَ ثُمَّ قَرَأَ يَسْأَلُونَکَ عَنْ الْأَنْفَالِ قُلْ الْأَنْفَالُ لِلَّهِ وَالرَّسُولِ إِلَی آخِرِ الْآيَةِ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد قِرَائَةُ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ يَسْأَلُونَکَ النَّفْلَ
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 2740
Musab bin Saad reported on the authority of his father (Saad bin Abi Waqqas) “I brought a sword to the Prophet ﷺ on the day of the Badr and I said (to him) Messenger of Allah ﷺ, Allaah has healed up my breast from the enemy today, so give me this sword. He said “This sword is neither mine nor yours. I then went away saying “today this will be given to a man who has not been put to trial like me. Meanwhile a messenger and came to me and said “Respond, I thought something was revealed about me owing to my speech. I came and the Prophet ﷺ said to me “You asked me for this sword, but this was neither mine nor yours. Now Allaah has given it to me, hence it is yours. He then recited “they ask thee concerning (things taken as) spoils of war. Say “ (Such) spoils are at the disposal of Allaah and the Messenger. Abu Dawud said “According to the reading of the Quran of Ibn Masud the verse goes. They ask thee concerning (things taken as ) spoils of war.
