حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ بْنُ زِيَادٍ، عَنْ خُصَيْفٍ، حَدَّثَنَا مِقْسَمٌ، قَالَ قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ

نَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الآيَةُ ‏:‏ ‏‏(‏ وَمَا كَانَ لِنَبِيٍّ أَنْ يَغُلَّ ‏)‏ فِي قَطِيفَةٍ حَمْرَاءَ افْتُقِدَتْ يَوْمَ بَدْرٍ ‏.‏ فَقَالَ بَعْضُ النَّاسِ لَعَلَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَخَذَهَا فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ كَانَ لِنَبِيٍّ أَنْ يَغُلَّ ‏)‏ إِلَى آخِرِ الآيَةِ ‏.‏

Narrated Khusaif:

from Miqsam that Ibn 'Abbas said: "This Ayah: It is not for a Prophet to illegally take a part of the booty... (3:161) was revealed about a red robe that was missing from the Day of Badr. Some of the people said: 'Perhaps the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) took it.' So Allah, Blessed and Most High, revealed: It is not for a Prophet to illegally take a part of the booty... until the end of the Ayah."

Reported by At-Tirmidhi (No. 3009) and Abu Dawud (No. 3971).
