He said when I went in, `O Malik! Some of your people's families came to me due to their famine, and I have ordered that relief aid should be given to them, so take it and distribute it among them.' I said, `I wish that you ordered someone else to do it.' He said, `Take it.' Then Yarfa (the servant of `Umar) came saying, `O Commander of the faithful! May I admit `Uthman bin `Affan, `Abdur-Rahman bin `Awf, Az-Zubayr bin Al-`Awwam and Sa`d bin Abi Waqqas' `Umar said, `Yes,' and they came in. Suddenly the messenger of `Umar bin Al-Khattab came to me and I went along with him and entered the place where `Umar was sitting on a bedstead made of date-palm leaves and without a mattress. Abu Dawud recorded that Malik bin `Aws said,"While I was at home, the sun rose high and it got hot. The Group, with the exception of Ibn Majah, collected this Hadith. Therefore, it was for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and he used it for the needs of his family for a year at a time, and the rest was used to buy armors and weapons used in the cause of Allah the Exalted and Most Honored." Ahmad collected the short form of this story. Imam Ahmad recorded that `Umar said, "The wealth of Bani An-Nadir was of the Fai' type that Allah awarded His Messenger and for which the Muslims did not have to use cavalry or camelry. mentioning the ways the Fai' should be spent. (it is for Allah, His Messenger, the kindred, the orphans, the poor, and the wayfarer,) until its end and the following Ayah. (What Allah gave as booty (Fai') to His Messenger from the people of the townships) meaning, from all the villages and areas that are conquered in this manner the booty collected from them falls under the same ruling as the booty acquired from Bani An-Nadir. And Allah is Able to do all things.) mean, Allah is powerful and cannot be resisted or opposed He is the Compeller over all things. (But Allah gives power to His Messengers over whomsoever He wills. (for this you made no expedition with either cavalry or camelry.) refering to using camels, (And what Allah gave as booty (Fai') to His Messenger from them) meaning, from Bani An-Nadir, Indeed, the Prophet spent the Fai' on righteous causes and for the benefit of Muslims in the areas that Allah mentioned in this Ayat, Therefore, it was Fai' that Allah awarded His Messenger, with his discretion to spend it however he sees fit. The Muslims did not fight Bani An-Nadir in battle, but Allah forced them out of their forts on account of the fear that He placed in their hearts for Allah's Messenger ﷺ. For instance, the booty collected from Bani An-Nadir was not acquired because of fighting them using horses and camels. Allah the Exalted explains the regulations for Fai', the booty that the Muslims acquire from the disbelievers, without fighting them or using cavalry and camelry in war against them.
