Hadith 29:111
Abu Usama narrated to us, he said: Al-Ala’ ibn al-Minhal narrated to us, he said: Asim ibn Kulayb al-Jarmi narrated to us, he said: My father narrated to me, he said: We besieged Waj, and over us was a man from Banu Sulaym called Mujashi’ ibn Mas’ud. He said: When we conquered it, I was wearing a worn-out shirt. He said: So I went to one of the slain whom we had killed. He said: I took the shirt of one of those slain, and it had blood on it. He said: I washed it between stones and rubbed it until I cleaned it, then I wore it. I entered the village and took a needle and some thread, and I mended my shirt. Then Mujashi’ stood up and said: "O people, do not embezzle anything, for whoever embezzles anything will bring it on the Day of Resurrection, even if it were a needle." He said: So I went to that shirt and took it off, and I went to my shirt to unstitch it, until, by Allah, O my son, I began to tear my shirt to protect the thread from being cut. Then I went with the shirt, the needle, and the thread that I had taken from the spoils, and I threw them into it. Then, I did not depart from this world until I saw them embezzling the markets. If I said anything, they would say: "Our share of the fay’ (spoils) is more than this."
حدثنا أبو أسامة قال حدثنا العلاء بن المنهال قال حدثنا عاصم بن كليب الجرمي قال حدثني أبي قال حاصرنا بوج وعلينا رجل من بني سليم يقال له مجاشع بن مسعود قال فلما فتحناها قال وعلي قميص خلق قال فانطلقت إلى قتيل من القتلى الذين قتلنا قال فأخذت قميص بعض أولئك القتلى قال وعليهم الدماء قال فغسلته بين أحجار ودلكته حتى أنقيته ولبسته ودخلت القرية فأخذت إبرة وخيوطا فخطت قميصي فقام مجاشع فقال يا أيها الناس لا تغلوا شيئا من غل شيئا جاء به يوم القيامة ولو كان مخيطا قال فانطلقت إلى ذلك القميص فنزعته وانطلقت إلى قميصي أفتقه حتى والله يا بني جعلت أخرق قميصي توقيا على الخيط أن يقطع فانطلقت بالقميص والإبرة والخيط الذي كنت أخذته من المقاسم فألقيته فيها ثم ما ذهبت من الدنيا حتى رأيتهم يغلون الأسواق فإذا قلت أي شيء قالوا نصيبنا من الفيء أكثر من هذا
