English narration
Narrated by قتادة بن دعامة السدوسي
Qatadah said “When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ participated in battle there was for him a special portion which he took from where he desired. Safiyyah was from that portion. But when he did not participate himself in his battle, a portion was taken out for him, but he had no choice. ”
النص العربي
حَدَّثَنَا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ السُّلَمِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ يَعْنِي ابْنَ عَبْدِ الْوَاحِدِ ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ يَعْنِي ابْنَ بَشِيرٍ ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ، قَالَ : كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا غَزَا كَانَ لَهُ سَهْمٌ صَافٍ يَأْخُذُهُ مِنْ حَيْثُ شَاءَهُ فَكَانَتْ صَفِيَّةُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ السَّهْمِ ، وَكَانَ إِذَا لَمْ يَغْزُ بِنَفْسِهِ ضُرِبَ لَهُ بِسَهْمِهِ وَلَمْ يُخَيَّرْ .
