“We were talking about
how,
on the Day of Badr, the Companions of the Messenger of Allah
(ﷺ)
numbered three hundred ten and something, the same number as the
Companions of (Talut) who crossed the river with him, and no one
crossed the river with him but a believer.”
“I heard Abul-Ward, the
Companion of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), say: ‘Beware of the
troop
which, when it meets (the enemy) it flees, and when it takes
spoils of
war, it steals from it.’”
It was
narrated from Qabisah bin Hulb that his father said:
“I asked
the
Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) about the food of the Christians and he
said: ‘Do not have any doubt about food, (thereby) following the
way
of the Christians in that.’”
‘Urwah
bin Ruwaim Al-Lakhmi narrated that Abu Tha’labah Al-Khushani –
whom he said he met and spoke with – said:
“I came to the
Messenger of
Allah (ﷺ) and asked him: ‘O Messenger of Allah! Can
we cook in the
vessels of the idolaters?’ He said: ‘Do not cook
in them.’ I said:
‘What if we need them and cannot find anything
else?’ He said: ‘Wash
them well, then cook and eat.’”
“I heard Abu Dharr
swearing
that these verses were revealed concerning those six people
on the
Day of Badr: ‘These two opponents (believers and disbelievers)
dispute with each other about their Lord.”[22:19] to the words
“Verily, Allah does what he wills.’[22:14] (that is) Hamzah bin
‘Abdul-Muttalib, ‘Ali bin Abi Talib, ‘Ubaidah bin Al-Harith,
‘Utbah
bin Rabi’ah, Shaibah bin Rabi’ah and Al-Walid bin
‘Utbah. They argued
with one another on the Day of Badr.”
It was
narrated from Abu Muhammad, the freed slave of Abu Qatadah
(from Abu
Qatadah) that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) awarded him the
spoils of
a man whom he killed on the Day of Hunain.
“Sa’b bin Jaththamah said: ‘The
Prophet (ﷺ) was asked about the polytheists who are attacked at
night, and their women and children are killed.’ He said: ‘They
are
from among them.’”
It was
narrated from Iyas bin Salamah bin Awka’, that his father
said:
“We
attacked Hawazin, with Abu Bakr, during the time of the
Prophet
(ﷺ), and we arrived at an oasis belonging to Bani Fazarah
during
the last part of the night. We attacked at dawn, raiding the
people
of the oasis, and killed them, nine or seven households.”
Chapter 30: Making a sudden raid at night and the killing of women and children - كتاب الجهاد
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ، عَنِ الْمُرَقَّعِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ صَيْفِيٍّ، عَنْ حَنْظَلَةَ الْكَاتِبِ، قَالَ غَزَوْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَمَرَرْنَا عَلَى امْرَأَةٍ مَقْتُولَةٍ قَدِ اجْتَمَعَ عَلَيْهَا النَّاسُ فَأَفْرَجُوا لَهُ فَقَالَ (مَا كَانَتْ هَذِهِ تُقَاتِلُ فِيمَنْ يُقَاتِلُ) . ثُمَّ قَالَ لِرَجُلٍ (انْطَلِقْ إِلَى خَالِدِ بْنِ الْوَلِيدِ فَقُلْ لَهُ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَأْمُرُكَ يَقُولُ لاَ تَقْتُلَنَّ ذُرِّيَّةً وَلاَ عَسِيفًا).
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا الْمُغِيرَةُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ، عَنِ الْمُرَقَّعِ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ، رَبَاحِ بْنِ الرَّبِيعِ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم نَحْوَهُ. قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ يُخْطِئُ الثَّوْرِيُّ فِيهِ.
It was
narrated that Hanzalah Al-Katib said:
“We went out to fight
alongside the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), and we passed by a slain
woman
whom the people had gathered around. They parted (to let the
Prophet
(ﷺ) through) and he said: ‘This (woman) was not one of
those who
were fighting.’ Then he said to a man: ‘Go to Khalid
bin Walid and
tell him that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) commands
you: “Do not kill
any children or women, or any (farm) laborer.’”
Another chain reports a similar hadith.
It was
narrated from Ibn ‘Umar that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)
burned
the palm trees of Banu Nadir, and cut down Buwairah (the name
of
their garden). Then Allah revealed the words:
“What you (O Muslims)
cut down of the palm trees (of the enemy), or you left them
standing...” [59:5]
It was
narrated from Ayas bin Salamah bin Akwa’ that his father said:
“We
attacked, Hawazin at the time of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) with
Aby Bakr. He awarded me a slave girl from Banu Fazarah, among the
most
beautiful of the Arabs, who was wearing an animal skin of hers.
I did
not divest her of her clothing until I reached Al-Madinah. Then
the
Prophet (ﷺ) met me in the marketplace, and said: ‘By Alla,
give her
to me.’ So I gave her to him, and he sent her as a ransom
for some of
the Muslim prisoners who were in Makkah.”
Chapter 33: What the enemy captures then the Muslims defeat them - كتاب الجهاد
حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ نُمَيْرٍ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، قَالَ ذَهَبَتْ فَرَسٌ لَهُ فَأَخَذَهَا الْعَدُوُّ فَظَهَرَ عَلَيْهِمُ الْمُسْلِمُونَ فَرُدَّ عَلَيْهِ فِي زَمَنِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم . قَالَ وَأَبَقَ عَبْدٌ لَهُ فَلَحِقَ بِالرُّومِ فَظَهَرَ عَلَيْهِمُ الْمُسْلِمُونَ فَرَدَّهُ عَلَيْهِ خَالِدُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ بَعْدَ وَفَاةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم .
It was
narrated that Ibn ‘Umar said that a horse of his went out and the
enemy captured it. Then the Muslims defeated them and it was returned
to him. (That was) during the time of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ).
He said:
“And a slave of his absconded and joined up with the Romans, then the Muslims defeated them, and Khalid bin Walid returned him to me, after the death of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ).”
It was
narrated that Zaid bin Khalid Al-Juhani said:
“A man from (the
tribe of) Ashja’ died in Khaibar, and the Prophet (ﷺ) said:
‘Offer the funeral prayer for your companion.’ The people found
that strange.* When he saw that, he said: ‘Your companion stole
from the spoils of war (when fighting) in the cause of Allah.’”
Chapter 34: Stealing from the spoils of war - كتاب الجهاد
حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ دِينَارٍ، عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ أَبِي الْجَعْدِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، قَالَ كَانَ عَلَى ثَقَلِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم رَجُلٌ يُقَالُ لَهُ كِرْكِرَةُ . فَمَاتَ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم
" هُوَ فِي النَّارِ " . فَذَهَبُوا يَنْظُرُونَ فَوَجَدُوا عَلَيْهِ كِسَاءً أَوْ عَبَاءَةً قَدْ غَلَّهَا .
It was
narrated that ‘Abdullah bin ‘Amr said:
“There was a man called
Kirkah in charge of the goods of the Prophet (ﷺ), who died. The
Prophet (ﷺ) said: ‘He is in Hell.’ They went and looked, and
found
him wearing a garment or a cloak that he had stolen from the
spoils of
war.”
“The Messenger of Allah
(ﷺ) led us in prayer on the Day of Hunain, beside a camel that was
part of the spoils of war. Then he took something from the camel, and
extracted from it a hair, which he placed between two of his fingers.
Then he said: ‘O people, this is part of your spoils of war. Hand
over
a needle and thread and anything greater than that or less than
that.
For stealing from the spoils of war will be a source of shame
for
those who do it, and ignominy and Fire, on the Day of
Resurrection.’”
It was
narrated from ‘Ubadah bin Samit that the Prophet (ﷺ) awarded
one
quarter of the spoils to those who attacked the enemy at the
beginning and one third to those who attacked at the end.
