Sunan an-Nasa’i: Book 43, Hadith 31

It was narrated that Rafi bin Khadij Said: “When distributing the spoils of war, the Messenger of Allah used to make ten sheep equivalent to one camel.” Shu’bah said: “I know most if it from what I heard form Sa’eed bin Masruq, and Sufyan narrated it to me.” (Sahih )

أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ الثَّوْرِيُّ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَبَايَةَ بْنِ رِفَاعَةَ بْنِ رَافِعٍ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ، رَافِعِ بْنِ خَدِيجٍ قَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَجْعَلُ فِي قَسْمِ الْغَنَائِمِ عَشْرًا مِنَ الشَّاءِ بِبَعِيرٍ ‏.‏ قَالَ شُعْبَةُ وَأَكْبَرُ عِلْمِي أَنِّي سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ مَسْرُوقٍ وَحَدَّثَنِي بِهِ سُفْيَانُ عَنْهُ وَاللَّهُ تَعَالَى أَعْلَمُ ‏.‏
