It was reported about ‘Abdullāh ibn Abi Awfa that he was asked (by Muhammad ibn Abi Mujāhid): "Were you people setting aside one-fifth of the spoils of war – meaning the food – during the time of the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him)?" He replied: "We got some food on the Day of Khaybar. A man would come and take the amount he needed from it then go away."

عن عبد الله بن أبي أوفى قال: قلت: "هل كنتم تُخَمِّسُون -يعني الطعام- في عهد رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ؟ فقال: «أصبنا طعامًا يوم خَيبر، فكان الرجلُ يَجيء فَيَأخذُ مِنه مِقدارَ ما يَكفيه، ثم يَنْصَرِف».
