حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الصَّبَّاحِ الزَّعْفَرَانِيُّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ الطَّائِيُّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ بُشَيْرِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏زَعَمَ أَنَّ رَجُلًا مِنْ الْأَنْصَارِ يُقَالُ لَهُ سَهْلُ بْنُ أَبِي حَثْمَةَ أَخْبَرَهُ:‏‏‏‏ أَنَّ نَفَرًا مِنْ قَوْمِهِ انْطَلَقُوا إِلَى خَيْبَرَ فَتَفَرَّقُوا فِيهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَوَجَدُوا أَحَدَهُمْ قَتِيلًا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالُوا لِلَّذِينَ وَجَدُوهُ عِنْدَهُمْ:‏‏‏‏ قَتَلْتُمْ صَاحِبَنَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالُوا:‏‏‏‏ مَا قَتَلْنَاهُ وَلَا عَلِمْنَا قَاتِلًا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَانْطَلَقْنَا إِلَى نَبِيِّ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ فَقَالَ لَهُمْ:‏‏‏‏ تَأْتُونِي بِالْبَيِّنَةِ عَلَى مَنْ قَتَلَ هَذَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالُوا:‏‏‏‏ مَا لَنَا بَيِّنَةٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ فَيَحْلِفُونَ لَكُمْ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالُوا:‏‏‏‏ لَا نَرْضَى بِأَيْمَانِ الْيَهُودِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَكَرِهَ نَبِيُّ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ يُبْطِلَ دَمَهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَوَدَاهُ مِائَةً مِنْ إِبِلِ الصَّدَقَةِ .

A man of the Ansar called Sahl bin Abi Hathmah told him that some people of his tribe went to Khaibar and separated there. They found one of them slain. They said to those with whom they had found him: You have killed our friend. They replied: We did not kill him, nor do we know the slayer. We (the people of the slain) then went to the Prophet of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم. He said to them: Bring proof against the one who has slain him. They replied: We have no proof. He said: Then they will take an oath for you. They said: We do not accept the oaths of the Jews. The Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم did not like no responsibility should be fixed for his blood. So he himself paid his bloodwit consisting of one hundred camels of sadaqah (i. e. camels sent to the Prophet as zakat).
