Sahih al-Bukhari 4060 (Book 64, Hadith 276)

Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) sent Aban from Medina to Najd as the commander of a Sariya.
Aban and his companions came to the Prophet (ﷺ) at Khaibar after the Prophet (ﷺ) had conquered it, and the
reins of their horses were made of the fire of date palm trees. I said, “O Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)! Do not give
them a share of the booty.” on, that, Aban said (to me), “Strange! You suggest such a thing though
you are what you are, O guinea pig coming down from the top of Ad-Dal (a lotus tree)! “On that the
Prophet said, “O Aban, sit down ! ” and did not give them any share.

وَيُذْكَرُ عَنِ الزُّبَيْدِيِّ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي عَنْبَسَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ، يُخْبِرُ سَعِيدَ بْنَ الْعَاصِي قَالَ بَعَثَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَبَانَ عَلَى سَرِيَّةٍ مِنَ الْمَدِينَةِ قِبَلَ نَجْدٍ، قَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ فَقَدِمَ أَبَانُ وَأَصْحَابُهُ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم بِخَيْبَرَ، بَعْدَ مَا افْتَتَحَهَا، وَإِنَّ حُزْمَ خَيْلِهِمْ لَلِيفٌ، قَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، لاَ تَقْسِمْ لَهُمْ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبَانُ وَأَنْتَ بِهَذَا يَا وَبْرُ تَحَدَّرَ مِنْ رَأْسِ ضَأْنٍ‏.‏ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏
“‏ يَا أَبَانُ اجْلِسْ ‏”‏ فَلَمْ يَقْسِمْ لَهُمْ‏.‏
