Sharing Yields from Land Cultivation

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) gave the Jews of Khaibar a piece of land to cultivate and work on, in exchange for half of its yield.

Narrated 'Abdullah bin 'Umar: Allah's Messenger gave the land of Khaibar to the Jews on the condition that they would work on it and cultivate it and they would get half of its yield.
حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى، حَدَّثَنَا جُوَيْرِيَةُ بْنُ أَسْمَاءَ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ قَالَ أَعْطَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ خَيْبَرَ الْيَهُودَ أَنْ يَعْمَلُوهَا وَيَزْرَعُوهَا، وَلَهُمْ شَطْرُ مَا يَخْرُجُ مِنْهَا‏.‏

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the Prophet Muhammad's agreement with the Jews of Khaibar. He gave them a piece of land to cultivate and work on, in exchange for half of its yield. This agreement was made as an act of kindness and generosity towards the Jews, as it allowed them to benefit from their own hard work. It also teaches us that we should be generous with others and share our resources with those who are less fortunate than us. Furthermore, it teaches us that we should always strive to make agreements that are beneficial for both parties involved. We should not take advantage or exploit others in any way when making agreements or deals.
