Contents > Propogation and Domination of Islam > Stealing the booty

al-Ghulool - Maal ul-Gholool is the wealth that is stolen in the battlefield or from the booty. Abdullah ibn Amru (ra) narrated,

“There was a man who carried the things of the Prophet (saw) , called Qirqara, the Prophet (saw) said, ‘he is in the hellfire’, they went to see him and found him wearing a cloak that he took and put it in his belongings (that took Gholool).” Saheeh al-Bukhari and Saheeh al-Muslim

Sulayman bin Buraydah (ra) reported that his father said,

"Yazeed bin Husaib bin Aslami (ra) said, the Messenger whenever he sent an Ameer of an expedition, he told him first to "fear Allah in yourself, and treat all the Muslims with you good, raid (aghzu) in the name of Allah, and in the path of Allah, fight those who declare Kufr in Allah, raid and do not steal the money of the booty …" Saheeh al-Muslim
