When we returned, the people were driving their camels quickly. The people said to one another: What is the matter with them? They said: Revelation has come down to the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم. We also proceeded with the people, galloping (our camels). We found the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم standing on his riding-animal at Kura' al-Ghamim. When the people gathered near him, he recited: Verily We have granted thee a manifest victory. A man asked: Is this a victory, Messenger of Allah? He replied: Yes. By Him in Whose hands the soul of Muhammad is, this is a victory. Khaybar was divided among those who had been at al-Hudaybiyyah, and the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم divided it into eighteen portions. The army consisted of one thousand five hundred men, of which three hundred were cavalry, and he gave two shares to a horseman and one to a foot-soldier. Abu Dawud said: Abu Muawiyah's tradition is sounder, and it is one which is followed. I think the error is in the tradition of Mujammi, because he said: three hundred horsemen. when there were only two hundred.

The young men refused (to give), and said: The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم has given it to us. Then Allah sent down: They ask thee concerning (things taken as) spoils of war, Say: (Such) spoils are at the disposal of Allah and the Messenger. . . . . . Just as they Lord ordered thee out of thy house in truth, even though a party among the believers disliked it. This proved good for them. Similarly obey me. I know the consequence of this better than you.
