Muwatta Malik #1028
Jihad
Yahya related to me from Malik from Thawr ibn Zayd ad-Dili from
Abu'l-Ghayth Salim, the mawla of ibn Muti that Abu Hurayra said, "We
went out with the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant
him peace, in the yearof Khaybar. We did not capture any gold or
silver except for personal effects, clothes, and baggage. Rifaa ibn
Zayd presented a black slave boy to the Messenger of Allah, may Allah
bless him and grant him peace, whose name was Midam. The Messenger of
Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, made for Wadi'l-Qura,
and when he arrived there, Midam was unsaddling the camel of the
Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, when a
stray arrow struck and killed him. The people said, 'Good luck to him!
The Garden!' The Messenger of Allah said, 'No! By He in whose hand my
self is! The cloak which he took from the spoils on the Day of Khaybar
before they were distributed will blaze with fire on him.' When the
people heard that, a man brought a sandal-strap or two sandal-straps
to the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace.
The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said,
'A sandal-strap or two sandal-straps of fire!' "
