حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى وَابْنُ بَشَّارٍ - وَاللَّفْظُ لاِبْنِ الْمُثَنَّى - قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ سِمَاكِ بْنِ حَرْبٍ عَنْ مُصْعَبِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ نَزَلَتْ فِىَّ أَرْبَعُ آيَاتٍ أَصَبْتُ سَيْفًا فَأَتَى بِهِ النَّبِىَّ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ نَفِّلْنِيهِ. فَقَالَ « ضَعْهُ ». ثُمَّ قَامَ فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِىُّ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- « ضَعْهُ مِنْ حَيْثُ أَخَذْتَهُ ». ثُمَّ قَامَ فَقَالَ نَفِّلْنِيهِ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ. فَقَالَ « ضَعْهُ ». فَقَامَ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ نَفِّلْنِيهِ أَأُجْعَلُ كَمَنْ لاَ غَنَاءَ لَهُ فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِىُّ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- « ضَعْهُ مِنْ حَيْثُ أَخَذْتَهَ ». قَالَ فَنَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الآيَةُ (يَسْأَلُونَكَ عَنِ الأَنْفَالِ قُلِ الأَنْفَالُ لِلَّهِ وَالرَّسُولِ)

It was narrated from Mus'ab bin Sa'd that his father said: Four Verses were revealed concerning me: I acquired a sword (as booty) and brought it to the Prophet (s.a.w) and said: O Messenger of Allah, grant it to me (as my share of the booty). He said: "Put it down." Then he got up and said: O Messenger of Allah, grant it to me. The Prophet (s.a.w) said to him: "Put it back where you got it from." Then he stood up and said: Grant it to me, O Messenger of Allah. He said: "Put it down." He said: O Messenger of Allah, grant it to me. Shall I be treated like one who is of no use (in war)? The Prophet (s.a.w) said to him: "Put it back where you got it from." Then this Verse was revealed: "They ask you (O Muhammad (s.a.w)) about the spoils of war. Say: The spoils are for Allah and the Messenger" [Al-Anfal 8:1].
