Sahih Muslim

Book 33: The Book on Government

Chapter 39

The sanctity of the wives of the Mujahidin, and the sin of the one who betrays them with regard to them

باب حُرْمَةِ نِسَاءِ الْمُجَاهِدِينَ وَإِثْمِ مَنْ خَانَهُمْ فِيهِنَّ ‏‏

Sahih Muslim 1897c
وَحَدَّثَنَاهُ سَعِيدُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ قَعْنَبٍ، عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ بْنِ مَرْثَدٍ، بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ ‏"‏ فَقَالَ فَخُذْ مِنْ حَسَنَاتِهِ مَا شِئْتَ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ فَالْتَفَتَ إِلَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَالَ ‏"‏ فَمَا ظَنُّكُمْ ‏"‏ ‏.‏
A version of the tradition narrated on the authority of 'Alqama b. Murthad has a differently worded end:

It will be said to the Mujahid: Take from his noble deeds whatever you like. Then the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) turned to us and asked: What do you think (will he leave anything)? - (i. e. he will take away everything).
