Arabic hadith text

وَعَنْ رَبِيعَةَ بْنِ أَبِي عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ غَيْرِ وَاحِدٍ: أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَقْطَعَ لِبِلَالِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ الْمُزَنِيِّ معادن الْقبلية وَهِيَ مِنْ نَاحِيَةِ الْفُرْعِ فَتِلْكَ الْمَعَادِنُ لَا تُؤْخَذُ مِنْهَا إِلَّا الزَّكَاةُ إِلَى الْيَوْمِ. رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُد

Translation

Rabiʿa ibn Abi Abd al-Rahman, from several people, reported that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ granted Bilal ibn al-Harith al-Muzani the mines of al-Qabaliyya, in the direction of al-Furʿ. No levy has been taken from those mines other than zakat to this day. Abu Dawud transmitted it.
