Sunan al-Nasa'i — The Book of Fighting [The Prohibition of Bloodshed]

The Prophet said: “Do not revert to misguidance after I am gone, striking the necks of one another (killing one another).”

“On the day of Hunain the Messenger of Allah took a hair from the side of a camel and said: ‘O you people, it is not permissible for me to take even the equivalent of this from the Fay’ that Allah has bestowed upon you, except the Khumus, and the Khumus will come back to you.” (Sahih) Abu ‘Abdur-Rahman (An-Nasa’i) said: Abu Sallam’s name is Mamtur and he is Ethiopian, and Abu Umamah’s name is Sudai bin ‘Ajlan.

“The Prophet said: ‘ A heap of grain should not be sold for a heap of grain, or for a heap of grain of known measure. “

The Prophet (ﷺ) said: It is not on my own that I give you or withhold from you: I am just a treasure, putting it where I have been commanded.

I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say: Allah, the Exalted, has placed truth on Umar’s tongue and he speaks it.

They i.e ‘Ali and al-‘Abbas (Allah be pleased with them), were quarrelling about what Allah bestowed on His Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), that is, the property of Banu al-Nadir. Abu Dawud said: He (‘Umar) intended that the name of division should not apply to it.

‘Umar said explaining the verse: “What Allah has bestowed on His Apostle (and taken away) from them – for this ye made no expedition with either cavalry or camelry” this belonged specially to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ): lands of ‘Urainah, Fadak, and so-and-so. What Allah as bestowed on His Apostle (and taken away) from the people of the townships – belong to Allah – to the Apostle, and to kindred and orphans, the needy and the wayfarer, to the indigent emigrants, those who were expelled from their homes and their property, and to those who, before them, had homes (in Medina), and had adopted the faith, and to those who came after them. This verse completely covered all the people ; they remained no one from Muslims but he had his right in it, or share (according to Ayyub’s version) except the slaves.

That he heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say: “Whoever separates between a mother and her child, then Allah will separate between him and his beloved on the Day of Judgement.” There is something on this topic from ‘Ali. This Hadith is Hasan Gharib. This is acted upon according to the people of knowledge among the Companions of the Prophet (ﷺ) and others. They dislike separating the captives, the mother and her child, the son and the father, and brothers.

That the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Bring me a shoulder blade or tablet.” Then he wrote: Not equal are those of believers who sit. ‘Amr bin Umm Maktum who was behind him said: “Is there an exemption for me?” So the following was revealed: Except those who are disabled. There are narrations on this topic from Ibn ‘Abbas, Jabir and Zaid bin Thabit. This Hadith is Hasan Sahih and it is a Hadith that is Gharib from the narration of Sulaiman At-Taimi from Abu Ishaq. And Shu’bah and Ath-Thawri reported this Hadith from Abu Ishaq.

“Do not punish with more than ten whips.”

“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) sent me to a man who had married his father’s wife after he died, to strike his neck (execute him) and confiscate his wealth.”

“Whoever claims to belong to someone other than his father, or (a freed slave) who claims that his Wala is for other than his real master, the curse of Allah (SWT), the angels and all the people will be upon him.”
