حَدَّثَنَا هَنَّادُ بْنُ السَّرِيِّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عَاصِمٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ مُصْعَبِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَبِيهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ جِئْتُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَوْمَ بَدْرٍ بِسَيْفٍ فَقُلْتُ:‏‏‏‏ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ اللَّهَ قَدْ شَفَى صَدْرِي الْيَوْمَ مِنَ الْعَدُوِّ فَهَبْ لِي هَذَا السَّيْفَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ إِنَّ هَذَا السَّيْفَ لَيْسَ لِي وَلَا لَكَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَذَهَبْتُ وَأَنَا أَقُولُ يُعْطَاهُ الْيَوْمَ مَنْ لَمْ يُبْلِ بَلَائِي فَبَيْنَا أَنَا إِذْ جَاءَنِي الرَّسُولُ فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ أَجِبْ فَظَنَنْتُ أَنَّهُ نَزَلَ فِيَّ شَيْءٌ بِكَلَامِي فَجِئْتُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ لِي النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ إِنَّكَ سَأَلْتَنِي هَذَا السَّيْفَ وَلَيْسَ هُوَ لِي وَلَا لَكَ وَإِنَّ اللَّهَ قَدْ جَعَلَهُ لِي فَهُوَ لَكَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ثُمَّ قَرَأَ:‏‏‏‏ يَسْأَلُونَكَ عَنِ الأَنْفَالِ قُلِ الأَنْفَالُ لِلَّهِ وَالرَّسُولِ سورة الأنفال آية 1 إِلَى آخِرِ الْآيَةِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد:‏‏‏‏ قِرَاءَةُ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ يَسْأَلُونَكَ النَّفْلَ.

“I brought a sword to the Prophet صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم on the day of the Badr and I said (to him) Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم, Allah 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 صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم said to me “You asked me for this sword, but this was neither mine nor yours. Now Allah 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 Allah and the Messenger. Abu Dawud said “According to the reading of the Quran of Ibn Masud رضی اللہ عنہ the verse goes. They ask thee concerning (things taken as ) spoils of war.
