Sahih al-Bukhari 4229 (Book 64, Hadith 267) #4041
Giving Khumus of Khaibar's Booty to Banu Al-Muttalib

SUMMARY: The Prophet (ﷺ) gave the Khumus of Khaibar's booty to Banu Al-Muttalib, as they and Banu Hashim are one and the same.

Narrated Jubair bin Mut'im: 'Uthman bin 'Affan and I went to the Prophet and said, "You had given Banu Al-Muttalib from the Khumus of Khaibar's booty and left us in spite of the fact that we and Banu Al-Muttalib are similarly related to you". The Prophet said, "Banu Hashim and Banu Al-Muttalib only are one and the same". So the Prophet did not give anything to Banu 'Abd Shams and Banu Nawfal.
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ يُونُسَ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ، أَنَّ جُبَيْرَ بْنَ مُطْعِمٍ، أَخْبَرَهُ قَالَ مَشَيْتُ أَنَا وَعُثْمَانُ بْنُ عَفَّانَ، إِلَى النَّبِيِّ فَقُلْنَا أَعْطَيْتَ بَنِي الْمُطَّلِبِ مِنْ خُمْسِ خَيْبَرَ، وَتَرَكْتَنَا، وَنَحْنُ بِمَنْزِلَةٍ وَاحِدَةٍ مِنْكَ‏.‏ فَقَالَ ‏ "‏ إِنَّمَا بَنُو هَاشِمٍ وَبَنُو الْمُطَّلِبِ شَىْءٌ وَاحِدٌ ‏"‏‏.‏ قَالَ جُبَيْرٌ وَلَمْ يَقْسِمِ النَّبِيُّ لِبَنِي عَبْدِ شَمْسٍ وَبَنِي نَوْفَلٍ شَيْئًا‏.‏

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about how the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ gave a portion of the spoils from a battle in Khaiber to a tribe called Banu al-Muttalb. This was because they were related to him through his family, known as Banu Hashim. He did not give anything to two other tribes, known as Banu 'Abd Shams and Nawfal, because he felt that only those two tribes were related enough for him to do so. This hadith teaches us that it is important for us to be generous with our family members who are in need, even if we don't have much ourselves. It also teaches us that we should be mindful when giving charity or gifts; it is important for us not just give away what we have without considering who deserves it more than others.
