Sunan an-Nasai 2449 (Book 23, Hadith 15) #17060
Rights of Allah and Camels

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) taught that for every forty camels, one Bint Labun should be given as a right of Allah. It is not permissible for the family of Muhammad to have any of them.

Bahz bin Hakim narrated from his father that his grandfather said: "I heard the Messenger of Allah say: 'With regard to grazing camels, for every forty a Bint Labun. No differentiation is to be made between camels when calculating them. Whoever gives it seeking reward will be rewarded for it. Whoever refuses, we will take it and half of his camels, as one of the rights of our Lord. And it is not permissible for the family of Muhammad to have any of them"'.
أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الأَعْلَى، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُعْتَمِرٌ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ بَهْزَ بْنَ حَكِيمٍ، يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ يَقُولُ ‏ "‏ فِي كُلِّ إِبِلٍ سَائِمَةٍ مِنْ كُلِّ أَرْبَعِينَ ابْنَةُ لَبُونٍ لاَ تُفَرَّقُ إِبِلٌ عَنْ حِسَابِهَا مَنْ أَعْطَاهَا مُؤْتَجِرًا لَهُ أَجْرُهَا وَمَنْ مَنَعَهَا فَإِنَّا آخِذُوهَا وَشَطْرَ إِبِلِهِ عَزْمَةً مِنْ عَزَمَاتِ رَبِّنَا لاَ يَحِلُّ لآلِ مُحَمَّدٍ مِنْهَا شَىْءٌ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the rights that Allah has over us and how we should fulfill them. The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) taught that for every forty camels, one Bint Labun should be given as a right of Allah. A Bint Labun is an animal which was used in the past to pay taxes or fees to rulers or governments. This means that if someone owns forty camels, they must give one camel as a tax or fee to Allah in order to fulfill their religious obligations. Furthermore, it is not permissible for the family of Muhammad to have any of these animals since they are considered part of the rights due from people towards God Almighty. By fulfilling this obligation we will receive reward from God Almighty in return which will benefit us both in this life and hereafter.
