حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ، حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عُمَرَ، أَخْبَرَنِي يُونُسُ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ، حَدَّثَنَا جُبَيْرُ بْنُ مُطْعِمٍ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم لَمْ يَقْسِمْ لِبَنِي عَبْدِ شَمْسٍ وَلاَ لِبَنِي نَوْفَلٍ مِنَ الْخُمُسِ شَيْئًا كَمَا قَسَمَ لِبَنِي هَاشِمٍ وَبَنِي الْمُطَّلِبِ . قَالَ وَكَانَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ يَقْسِمُ الْخُمُسَ نَحْوَ قَسْمِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم غَيْرَ أَنَّهُ لَمْ يَكُنْ يُعْطِي قُرْبَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم كَمَا كَانَ يُعْطِيهِمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَكَانَ عُمَرُ يُعْطِيهِمْ وَمَنْ كَانَ بَعْدَهُ مِنْهُمْ .

Jubayr ibn Mut‘im reported that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not allocate any of the fifth to Banu ‘Abd Shams or Banu Nawfal as he did to Banu Hashim and Banu al-Muttalib. Jubayr said: ‘Abu Bakr used to divide the fifth as the Messenger of Allah ﷺ had, except that he did not give the Prophet’s relatives what the Prophet had given them. ‘Umar and those who came after him did give them a share from it.’
Notes and open questions — unreviewed
The source says Banu al-Muttalib; the English witness adds ‘Abd in the tribal name. The report distinguishes the Prophet’s, Abu Bakr’s, and ‘Umar’s distributions.
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم لَمْ يَقْسِمْ لِبَنِي عَبْدِ شَمْسٍ وَلاَ لِبَنِي نَوْفَلٍ مِنَ الْخُمُسِ شَيْئًا كَمَا قَسَمَ لِبَنِي هَاشِمٍ وَبَنِي الْمُطَّلِبِ .
The English witness gives Banu ‘Abd al-Muttalib, while this Arabic text has Banu al-Muttalib.
Should the translation follow the exact Arabic tribal name here and retain the variant distinction across reports?
