Salama b. al-Akwa‘ said:

A spy of the polytheists who came to the Prophet (ﷺ) when he was on a journey sat and talked with his companions and afterwards withdrew. The Prophet (ﷺ) then said, “Look for him and kill him,” so I killed him and the Prophet (ﷺ) gave me the spoil taken from him. (Bukhari and Muslim.)
