Narrated Sa'id ibn al-'As: The Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him) sent AbuSa'id ibn al-'As with an expedition from Medina towards Najd. Aban ibn Sa'id and his companions came to the Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him) at Khaybar after it had been captured. The girths of their horses were made of palm fibres. Aban said: Give us a share (from the booty), Apostle of Allah. AbuHurayrah said: I said: Do not give them a share, Apostle of Allah. Aban said: Why are you talking so, Wabr. You have come to us from the peak of Dal. The Prophet (peace_be_upon_him) said: Sit down, Aban. The Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him) did not give any share to them (from the booty).
