حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَعَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ يَزِيدَ بْنِ جَابِرٍ، عَنْ مَكْحُولٍ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ جَارِيَةَ، عَنْ حَبِيبِ بْنِ مَسْلَمَةَ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ نَفَّلَ الثُّلُثَ بَعْدَ الْخُمُسِ

EXPLANATIONS:
During times of war, it was narrated that the Prophet Muhammad awarded one third of the spoils to those who participated in battle after one fifth had already been taken. This is a reminder to us that we should be generous and share our wealth with others. It also teaches us that we should not be greedy and take more than what is necessary for ourselves. We should strive to help those in need and give back to our communities whenever possible.
