Jami' al-Tirmidhi
TirmidhiHadith #3009: Sahih

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 ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ وَقَدْ رَوَى عَبْدُ السَّلاَمِ بْنُ حَرْبٍ عَنْ خُصَيْفٍ نَحْوَ هَذَا وَرَوَى بَعْضُهُمْ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ عَنْ خُصَيْفٍ عَنْ مِقْسَمٍ وَلَمْ يَذْكُرْ فِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ‏.‏

English Meaning

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
