The Shaykh:
May Allah greet you and bless you.
The questioner:
We ask your permission to proceed with Shaykh Salih to the first question we received in this episode from the brother Abu Muhammad, who says: What is the interpretation of the saying of Allah the Exalted[Ali 'Imran 3:161]?
The Shaykh:
[Al-Fatihah 1:1-2] And may Allah send prayers and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and all his Companions. Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He, said: [Ali 'Imran 3:161].
The reason for the revelation of the verse is that they were in the spoils of war from jihad in the path of Allah, and they lost a cloak. They said, "Perhaps the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) took it, because the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) has the right to take [from the spoils]." They said, "Perhaps he took it, meaning by what Allah has made permissible for him." So Allah revealed the exoneration of His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), and He said, Glorified and Exalted is He:[Ali 'Imran 3:161] So Allah exonerated His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) from this accusation, from which he is innocent, peace and blessings be upon him. Upon that, they apologized to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and he excused them. Yes.

And whoever betrays, [taking unlawfully], will come with what he took on the Day of Resurrection
وَمَن يَغْلُلْ يَأْتِ بِمَا غَلَّ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِThe Shaykh:
(1) In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful. (2) [All] praise is [due] to Allah, Lord of the worlds -
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَIt is not [attributable] to any prophet that he would act unfaithfully [in regard to war booty]. And whoever betrays, [taking unlawfully], will come with what he took on the Day of Resurrection. Then will every soul be [fully] compensated for what it earned, and they will not be wronged.
وَمَا كَانَ لِنَبِيٍّ أَن يَغُلَّ وَمَن يَغْلُلْ يَأْتِ بِمَا غَلَّ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ ثُمَّ تُوَفَّىٰ كُلُّ نَفْسٍ مَّا كَسَبَتْ وَهُمْ لَا يُظْلَمُونَThe reason for the revelation of the verse is that they were in the spoils of war from jihad in the path of Allah, and they lost a cloak.
