578. Commandment – Rules and regulations for the division of spoils

[59:8] Whatever Allah has given to His Messenger as spoils from the people of the towns is for Allah and for the Messenger and for the near of kin and the orphans and the needy and the wayfarer, that it may not circulate only among those of you who are rich. And whatsoever the Messenger gives you, take it; and whatsoever he forbids you, abstain from that. And fear Allah; surely, Allah is Severe in retribution.

[59:9] These spoils are for the poor Refugees who have been driven out from their homes and their possessions while seeking grace from Allah and His pleasure, and helping Allah and His Messenger. These it is who are true in their faith.

[8:2] They Ask thee concerning the spoils of war. Say, ‘The spoils belong to Allah and the Messenger. So fear Allah, and set things right among yourselves, and obey Allah and His Messenger, if you are believers.’

[8:42] And know that whatever you take as spoils in war, a fifth thereof shall go to Allah and to the Messenger and to the kindred and orphans and the needy and the wayfarer, if you believe in Allah and in what We sent down to Our servant on the Day of Distinction — the day when the two armies met — and Allah has the power to do all things.

[8:70] So eat of that which you have won in war as lawful and good, and fear Allah. Surely, Allah is Most Forgiving, Merciful.

[48:21] Allah has promised you great spoils that you will take, and He has given you this in advance, and has restrained the hands of men from you, that it may be a Sign for the believers, and that He may guide you on a right path.
