Chapter on Khums and Spoils of War (Ghanaim)

وَ عَنْهُ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنْ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ بْنِ مُسْكَانَ عَنِ اَلْحَلَبِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: فِي اَلرَّجُلِ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا يَكُونُ فِي لِوَائِهِمْ فَيَكُونُ مَعَهُمْ فَيُصِيبُ غَنِيمَةً قَالَ» يُؤَدِّي خُمُسَهَا وَيَطِيبُ لَهُ«.
And from him, from Ali ibn Ismail, from Safwan ibn Yahya, from Abdullah ibn Muskan, from al-Halabi, from Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, peace be upon him: (Imam عليه السلام was asked) concerning ‘a man from among our companions who is under their banner, and is with them, and obtains spoils.’ Imam عليه السلام said: "He pays its fifth (khums), and it (spoils) becomes lawful for him."
