Hadith 28

Sahih Bukhari

Book 57: One-fifth of Booty to the Cause of Allah (Khumus)

Chapter 8

The statement of the Prophet ﷺ: "Booty has been made legal for you Muslims."

بَابُ قَوْلِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «أُحِلَّتْ لَكُمُ الْغَنَائِمُ»

And the Statement of Allah عز وجل: "Allah has promised you abundant spoils that you will capture..." (V.48:20) So, the booty is for all the Muslim fighters who took part in the battle till Allah's Messenger ﷺ explained (the details) of those who deserved or not.
وَقَالَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى: {وَعَدَكُمُ اللَّهُ مَغَانِمَ كَثِيرَةً تَأْخُذُونَهَا فَعَجَّلَ لَكُمْ هَذِهِ} وَهْيَ لِلْعَامَّةِ حَتَّى يُبَيِّنَهُ الرَّسُولُ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ.
Sahih al-Bukhari 3119
حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا حُصَيْنٌ، عَنْ عَامِرٍ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ الْبَارِقِيِّ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏ ‏‏.‏
"‏ الْخَيْلُ مَعْقُودٌ فِي نَوَاصِيهَا الْخَيْرُ الأَجْرُ وَالْمَغْنَمُ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ ‏"
`Urwa-al-Bariqi:

The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Horses are always the source of good, namely, rewards (in the Hereafter) and booty, till the Day of Resurrection."
