آية: 161

وَمَا كَانَ لِنَبِيٍّ أَن يَغُلَّۚ وَمَن يَغۡلُلۡ يَأۡتِ بِمَا غَلَّ يَوۡمَ ٱلۡقِيَٰمَةِۚ ثُمَّ تُوَفَّىٰ كُلُّ نَفۡسٖ مَّا كَسَبَتۡ وَهُمۡ لَا يُظۡلَمُونَ

(161) No Prophet ever misappropriates^[734], whoever misappropriates ˹something˺ comes with that which he misappropriated on the Day of Judgement^[735]; then every soul shall be requited what it earned—they shall not be wronged.

[734] Yaghull is to stealthily, illegally seize possession of something; in this instance, spoils of war in particular. Exegetes differed upon the reason for the revelation of this aya. One opinion by the great exegetes al-Kalbī and Muqātil, found in al-Baghawī’s Tafsīr, puts it in context. They have it that the aya was revealed with regards to: “the spoils of the Battle of Uḥud. When the archers left their positions to seize some of the loot, they thought: “We fear that the Prophet will say: “Whatever one takes is his”, and he may not divide the loot ˹among his Companions˺ like he did at the Battle of Badr”. They then abandoned their positions and got their hands busy with the loot. The Prophet (ﷺ) said to them: “Did I not command you not to leave your positions until I said so?” They replied: “We left the rest of our brothers stationed in their positions!” He (ﷺ) said: “No! But you thought that we would seize possession of it and not give you your share!” Thus this aya was revealed”.
[735] Abū Ḥumayd al-Sāʿidī (رضي الله عنه) narrated that the Prophet (ﷺ) said: “By Allah none of you wrongfully appropriates part of it ˹collected mandatory alms˺ without him meeting Allah on the Day of Judgement carrying it. And I shall know everyone of you who meets Allah carrying a camel grunting, a cow lowing or a goat bleating...” (al-Bukhārī: 6979, Muslim: 1832). al-Qurṭubī (4: 256) comments: “He comes carrying it ˹illegally appropriated effects˺ on his back and neck, tormented by its weight, horrified by its atrocious sound, and berated by making his dishonesty known to all people…”.
