Hadith text
Narrated Marwan bin Al-Hakam and Al-Miswar bin Makhrama:When the delegates of the tribe of Hawazin after embracing Islam, came to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ), he got up. They appealed to him to return their properties and their captives. Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said to them, "The most beloved statement to me is the true one. So, you have the option of restoring your properties or your captives, for I have delayed distributing them." The narrator added, Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) had been waiting for them for more than ten days on his return from Taif. When they realized that Allah's Apostle would return to them only one of two things, they said, "We choose our captives." So, Allah's Apostle got up in the gathering of the Muslims, praised Allah as He deserved, and said, "Then after! These brethren of yours have come to you with repentance and I see it proper to return their captives to them. So, whoever amongst you likes to do that as a favor, then he can do it, and whoever of you wants to stick to his share till we pay him from the very first booty which Allah will give us then he can do so." The people replied, "We agree to give up our shares willingly as a favor for Allah's Apostle." Then Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "We don't know who amongst you has agreed and who hasn't. Go back and your chiefs may tell us your opinion." So, all of them returned and their chiefs discussed the matter with them and then they (i.e. their chiefs) came to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) to tell him that they (i.e. the people) had given up their shares gladly and willingly
Marwan bin Al-Hakam aur Al-Miswar bin Makhrama bataate hain: Jab Hawazin qabile ka wafd, Islam qubool karne ke baad, Allah ke Rasool ke paas aaya, woh khade hue. Unhone unse apni jaidad aur qaidiyon ko wapas karne ki guzarish ki. Allah ke Rasool ne unse kaha: "Mujhe sabse pyari baat sachi baat hai. Isliye tumhe ikhtiyaar hai ke apni jaidad wapas lo ya apne qaidiyon ko, kyunke maine (taqseem) taal diya hai." Raawi ne joda, Allah ke Rasool unka das din se zyada intezar kar rahe the Taif se wapas aane ke baad. Jab unhe pata chala ke Allah ke Rasool inme se sirf ek cheez wapas karenge, unhone kaha: "Hum apne qaidiyon ko chunte hain." Isliye Allah ke Rasool Musalmanon ki majlis mein khade hue, Allah ki jaisi hamd karni chahiye vaisi ki, aur kaha: "Iske baad! Tumhare yeh bhai tauba karke aaye hain aur mujhe theek lagta hai unke qaidiyon ko wapas karna. Isliye jise bhi aisa karna pasand ho ek ehsaan ke tor par, kar sakta hai, aur jo apna hissa rakhna chahe jab tak hum use pehle maal-e-ghanimat se ada nahi karte, woh bhi kar sakta hai." Logon ne kaha: "Hum Allah ke Rasool ki khaatir apna hissa khushi se de dete hain." Phir Allah ke Rasool ne kaha: "Humein nahi pata tum mein se kis ne raazi hokar diya aur kisne nahi. Wapas jaao aur tumhare sardar humein tumhari raay bata sakte hain." Isliye sab wapas gaye aur unke sardaar ne unse baat ki, phir woh Allah ke Rasool ke paas aaye aur unhe bataya ke unhone (yaani logon ne) apna hissa khushi aur raazi hokar de diya.
