\n When Allah -azwj Legalised the captives and the war booty for them...
\n When Allah -azwj Legalised the captives and the war booty for them, Sa\u2019ad Bin Muaz spoke, and he was from the ones who had stayed by the tent of the Prophet -saww . He said, \u2018O Rasool-Allah -saww ! We were not prevented from pursuing the enemy by us being abstemious regarding the Jihad, nor cowardice from the enemy, but we feared that your -saww place would be exposed and the cavalry of the Polytheists would come towards you -saww .
\n And faces of the Emigrants and the Helpers had stood by the tent and not one of them had doubted regarding what had withheld him, and the people are a lot, O Rasool-Allah -saww , and the war booty is little, and when you -saww give them, nothing would remain for your -saww companions\u2019, and he feared that Rasool-Allah -saww might distribute the war booty and the weapons of the killed ones between the ones who fought, and not give anything to the one who stayed behind by the tent of Rasool-Allah -saww .
\n They differed in what is between them until they asked Rasool-Allah -saww and said, \u2018For whom is this war booty?\u2019 So, Allah -azwj Revealed: They are asking you about the Anfaal. Say: \u2018The Anfaal is for Allah and the Rasool [8:1] . So, the people returned and there wasn\u2019t anything for them in the war booty.
Then Allah -azwj Revealed after that: And know that whatever booty you gain from anything, so a fifth of it is for Allah, and for the Rasool, and for the near of kin, and the orphans, and the needy and the wayfarer, [8:41] , and Rasool-Allah -saww distributed it between them. \n Sa\u2019ad Bin Abu Waqas said, \u2018O Rasool-Allah -saww !
Will you -saww give to the riders of the people who protected them, similar to what you -saww give to the weak?\u2019 The Prophet -saww said: \u2018May your mother be bereft of you! And were you helped except by your weak ones?\u2019 \n He -asws said: \u2018So, Rasool-Allah -saww did not keep a fifth at Badr and distributed it between his -saww companions, then he -saww came and took the fifth after Badr, and His -azwj Words were Revealed: They are asking you about the Anfaal.
[8:1] , after the expire of the battle of Badr\u2019\u2019.
