حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ،‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ،‏‏‏‏ وَحَفْصُ بْنُ غِيَاثٍ،‏‏‏‏ عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ،‏‏‏‏ عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ،‏‏‏‏ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ،‏‏‏‏ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ أُمِرْتُ أَنْ أُقَاتِلَ النَّاسَ،‏‏‏‏ حَتَّى يَقُولُوا:‏‏‏‏ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ،‏‏‏‏ فَإِذَا قَالُوهَا،‏‏‏‏ عَصَمُوا مِنِّي دِمَاءَهُمْ وَأَمْوَالَهُمْ إِلَّا بِحَقِّهَا،‏‏‏‏ وَحِسَابُهُمْ عَلَى اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ .

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “I have been commanded to fight the people until they say: La ilaha illallah. If they say it, then their blood and wealth are protected from me, except for a right that is due from it, and their reckoning will be with Allah.”

It was narrated from Abu Hurairah رضی اللہ عنہ that

حَدَّثَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ،‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُسْهِرٍ،‏‏‏‏ عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ،‏‏‏‏ عَنْ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ،‏‏‏‏ عَنْ جَابِرٍ،‏‏‏‏ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ أُمِرْتُ أَنْ أُقَاتِلَ النَّاسَ،‏‏‏‏ حَتَّى يَقُولُوا:‏‏‏‏ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ،‏‏‏‏ فَإِذَا قَالُوا:‏‏‏‏ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ،‏‏‏‏ عَصَمُوا مِنِّي دِمَاءَهُمْ وَأَمْوَالَهُمْ،‏‏‏‏ إِلَّا بِحَقِّهَا،‏‏‏‏ وَحِسَابُهُمْ عَلَى اللَّهِ .

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “I have been commanded to fight the people until they say: La ilaha illallah. If they say: La ilaha illallah, then their blood and wealth are protected from me, except for a right that is due from it, and their reckoning will be with Allah.”

It was narrated from Jabir رضی اللہ عنہ that

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ،‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ بَكْرٍ السَّهْمِيُّ،‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا حَاتِمُ بْنُ أَبِي صَغِيرَةَ،‏‏‏‏ عَنْ النُّعْمَانِ بْنِ سَالِمٍ،‏‏‏‏ أَنَّ عَمْرَو بْنَ أَوْسٍ أَخْبَرَهُ،‏‏‏‏ أَنَّ أَبَاهُ أَوْسًا أَخْبَرَهُ،‏‏‏‏ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ إِنَّا لَقُعُودٌ عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ،‏‏‏‏ وَهُوَ يَقُصُّ عَلَيْنَا وَيُذَكِّرُنَا،‏‏‏‏ إِذْ أَتَاهُ رَجُلٌ فَسَارَّهُ،‏‏‏‏ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ اذْهَبُوا بِهِ فَاقْتُلُوهُ ،‏‏‏‏ فَلَمَّا وَلَّى الرَّجُلُ،‏‏‏‏ دَعَاهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ،‏‏‏‏ فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ هَلْ تَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ ،‏‏‏‏ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ نَعَمْ،‏‏‏‏ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ اذْهَبُوا فَخَلُّوا سَبِيلَهُ،‏‏‏‏ فَإِنَّمَا أُمِرْتُ أَنْ أُقَاتِلَ النَّاسَ حَتَّى يَقُولُوا:‏‏‏‏ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ،‏‏‏‏ فَإِذَا فَعَلُوا ذَلِكَ،‏‏‏‏ حَرُمَ عَلَيَّ دِمَاؤُهُمْ وَأَمْوَالُهُمْ .

“We were sitting with the Prophet (ﷺ) and he was narrating to us and reminding us, when a man came and spoke privately to him. He said: ‘Take him away and kill him.’ When the man turned away, the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) called him back and said: ‘Do you bear witness that none has the right to be worshiped but Allah?’ He said, ‘Yes.’ He said: ‘Then go and let him go, for I have been commanded to fight the people until they say: La ilaha illallah, then if they do that, their blood and wealth are forbidden to me.’”

‘Amr bin Aws narrated that his father, Aws رضی اللہ عنہ , told him

حَدَّثَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ،‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُسْهِرٍ،‏‏‏‏ عَنْ عَاصِمٍ،‏‏‏‏ عَنْ السُّمَيْطِ بْنِ السَّمِيرِ،‏‏‏‏ عَنْ عِمْرَانَ بْنِ الْحُصَيْنِ،‏‏‏‏ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ أَتَى نَافِعُ بْنُ الْأَزْرَقِ وَأَصْحَابُهُ،‏‏‏‏ فَقَالُوا:‏‏‏‏ هَلَكْتَ يَا عِمْرَانُ،‏‏‏‏ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ مَا هَلَكْتُ،‏‏‏‏ قَالُوا:‏‏‏‏ بَلَى،‏‏‏‏ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ مَا الَّذِي أَهْلَكَنِي؟ قَالُوا:‏‏‏‏ قَالَ اللَّهُ:‏‏‏‏ وَقَاتِلُوهُمْ حَتَّى لا تَكُونَ فِتْنَةٌ وَيَكُونَ الدِّينُ كُلُّهُ لِلَّهِ [سورة الأنفال آية 39]،‏‏‏‏ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ قَدْ قَاتَلْنَاهُمْ حَتَّى نَفَيْنَاهُمْ فَكَانَ الدِّينُ كُلُّهُ لِلَّهِ،‏‏‏‏ إِنْ شِئْتُمْ حَدَّثْتُكُمْ حَدِيثًا سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ،‏‏‏‏ قَالُوا:‏‏‏‏ وَأَنْتَ سَمِعْتَهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ،‏‏‏‏ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ نَعَمْ،‏‏‏‏ شَهِدْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَقَدْ بَعَثَ جَيْشًا مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ إِلَى الْمُشْرِكِينَ،‏‏‏‏ فَلَمَّا لَقُوهُمْ قَاتَلُوهُمْ قِتَالًا شَدِيدًا،‏‏‏‏ فَمَنَحُوهُمْ أَكْتَافَهُمْ،‏‏‏‏ فَحَمَلَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ لُحْمَتِي عَلَى رَجُلٍ مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ بِالرُّمْحِ،‏‏‏‏ فَلَمَّا غَشِيَهُ،‏‏‏‏ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ إِنِّي مُسْلِمٌ،‏‏‏‏ فَطَعَنَهُ فَقَتَلَهُ،‏‏‏‏ فَأَتَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ،‏‏‏‏ فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ،‏‏‏‏ هَلَكْتُ،‏‏‏‏ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ وَمَا الَّذِي صَنَعْتَ مَرَّةً أَوْ مَرَّتَيْنِ،‏‏‏‏ فَأَخْبَرَهُ بِالَّذِي صَنَعَ،‏‏‏‏ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ فَهَلَّا شَقَقْتَ عَنْ بَطْنِهِ فَعَلِمْتَ مَا فِي قَلْبِهِ ،‏‏‏‏ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ،‏‏‏‏ لَوْ شَقَقْتُ بَطْنَهُ لَكُنْتُ أَعْلَمُ مَا فِي قَلْبِهِ،‏‏‏‏ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ فَلَا أَنْتَ قَبِلْتَ مَا تَكَلَّمَ بِهِ،‏‏‏‏ وَلَا أَنْتَ تَعْلَمُ مَا فِي قَلْبِهِ ،‏‏‏‏ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ فَسَكَتَ عَنْهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ،‏‏‏‏ فَلَمْ يَلْبَثْ إِلَّا يَسِيرًا حَتَّى مَاتَ،‏‏‏‏ فَدَفَنَّاهُ فَأَصْبَحَ عَلَى ظَهْرِ الْأَرْضِ،‏‏‏‏ فَقَالُوا:‏‏‏‏ لَعَلَّ عَدُوًّا نَبَشَهُ،‏‏‏‏ فَدَفَنَّاهُ ثُمَّ أَمَرْنَا غِلْمَانَنَا يَحْرُسُونَهُ،‏‏‏‏ فَأَصْبَحَ عَلَى ظَهْرِ الْأَرْضِ،‏‏‏‏ فَقُلْنَا:‏‏‏‏ لَعَلَّ الْغِلْمَانَ نَعَسُوا،‏‏‏‏ فَدَفَنَّاهُ ثُمَّ حَرَسْنَاهُ بِأَنْفُسِنَا،‏‏‏‏ فَأَصْبَحَ عَلَى ظَهْرِ الْأَرْضِ،‏‏‏‏ فَأَلْقَيْنَاهُ فِي بَعْضِ تِلْكَ الشِّعَابِ.

“Nafi’ bin Azraq and his companions came and said: ‘You are doomed, O ‘Imran!’ He (‘Imran رضی اللہ عنہ ) said: ‘I am not doomed.’ They said: ‘Yes you are.’ I said: ‘Why am I doomed?’ They said: ‘Allah says: “And fight them until there is no more Fitnah (disbelief and polytheism, i.e., worshipping others besides Allah), and the religion (worship) will be all for Allah Alone.”[8:39] He said: ‘We fought them until they were defeated and the religion was all for Allah Alone. If you wish, I will tell you a Hadith that I heard from the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ).’ They said: ‘Did you (really) hear it from the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)?’ He said: ‘Yes. I was with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and he had sent an army of the Muslims to the idolaters. When they met them they fought them fiercely, and they (the idolaters) gave them their shoulders (i.e., turned and fled). A man among my kin attacked an idolator man with a spear, and when he was defeated he said: “I bear witness that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah, I am a Muslim.” But he stabbed him and killed him. He came to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and said: “O Messenger of Allah, I am doomed.” He said “What is it that you have done?” one or two times. He told him what he had done and the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said to him: “Why didn’t you cut open his belly and find out what was in his heart?” He said: “O Messenger of Allah, I wish I had cut open his belly and could have known what was in his heart.” He said: “You did not accept what he said, and you could not have known what was in his heart!” The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) remained silent concerning him (that man), and a short while later he died. We buried him, but the following morning he was on the surface of the earth. They said: “Perhaps an enemy of his disinterred him.” So we buried him (again) and told our slaves to stand guard. But the following morning he was on the surface of the earth again then we said: ‘Perhaps the slaves dozed off.’ So we buried him (again) and stood guard ourselves, but the following morning he was on the surface of the earth (again). So we threw him into one of these mountain passes.’”

It was narrated from Sumait bin Sumair, that ‘Imran bin Husain رضی اللہ عنہما said

حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ،‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا عِيسَى بْنُ يُونُسَ،‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ،‏‏‏‏ عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ،‏‏‏‏ عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ،‏‏‏‏ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي حَجَّةِ الْوَدَاعِ:‏‏‏‏ أَلَا إِنَّ أَحْرَمَ الْأَيَّامِ يَوْمُكُمْ هَذَا،‏‏‏‏ أَلَا وَإِنَّ أَحْرَمَ الشُّهُورِ شَهْرُكُمْ هَذَا،‏‏‏‏ أَلَا وَإِنَّ أَحْرَمَ الْبَلَدِ بَلَدُكُمْ هَذَا،‏‏‏‏ أَلَا وَإِنَّ دِمَاءَكُمْ وَأَمْوَالَكُمْ عَلَيْكُمْ حَرَامٌ،‏‏‏‏ كَحُرْمَةِ يَوْمِكُمْ هَذَا فِي شَهْرِكُمْ هَذَا،‏‏‏‏ فِي بَلَدِكُمْ هَذَا،‏‏‏‏ أَلَا هَلْ بَلَّغْتُ ،‏‏‏‏ قَالُوا:‏‏‏‏ نَعَمْ،‏‏‏‏ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ اللَّهُمَّ اشْهَدْ .

“The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, during the Farewell Pilgrimage: ‘Is not the most sacred of your days this day, is not the most sacred of your months this month, is not the most sacred of your lands this land? Your blood and your wealth are as sacred to you as this day of yours in this month of yours. Have I not conveyed (the message)?’ They said: ‘Yes.” He said: ‘O Allah, bear witness.’”

It was narrated that Abu Sa’eed رضی اللہ عنہ said

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْقَاسِمِ بْنُ أَبِي ضَمْرَةَ نَصْرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سُلَيْمَانَ الْحِمْصِيُّ،‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي،‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أَبِي قَيْسٍ النَّصْرِيُّ،‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ،‏‏‏‏ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَطُوفُ بِالْكَعْبَةِ،‏‏‏‏ وَيَقُولُ:‏‏‏‏ مَا أَطْيَبَكِ وَأَطْيَبَ رِيحَكِ،‏‏‏‏ مَا أَعْظَمَكِ وَأَعْظَمَ حُرْمَتَكِ،‏‏‏‏ وَالَّذِي نَفْسُ مُحَمَّدٍ بِيَدِهِ،‏‏‏‏ لَحُرْمَةُ الْمُؤْمِنِ أَعْظَمُ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ حُرْمَةً مِنْكِ مَالِهِ وَدَمِهِ وَأَنْ،‏‏‏‏ نَظُنَّ بِهِ إِلَّا خَيْرًا .

“I saw the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) circumambulating the Ka’bah and saying: ‘How good you are and how good your fragrance; how great you are and how great your sanctity. By the One in Whose Hand is the soul of Muhammad, the sanctity of the believer is greater before Allah than your sanctity, his blood and his wealth, and to think anything but good of him.’”

It was narrated that ‘Abdullah bin ‘Amr رضی اللہ عنہما said

حَدَّثَنَا بَكْرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْوَهَّابِ،‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ نَافِعٍ،‏‏‏‏ وَيُونُسُ بْنُ يَحْيَ،‏‏‏‏ جَمِيعًا،‏‏‏‏ عَنْ دَاوُدَ بْنِ قَيْسٍ،‏‏‏‏ عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ مَوْلَى عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَامِرِ بْنِ كُرَيْزٍ،‏‏‏‏ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ،‏‏‏‏ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ،‏‏‏‏ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ كُلُّ الْمُسْلِمِ عَلَى الْمُسْلِمِ حَرَامٌ دَمُهُ وَمَالُهُ وَعِرْضُهُ .

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “The whole of the Muslim is sacred to his fellow Muslim, his blood, his wealth and his honor.”

It was narrated from Abu Hurairah رضی اللہ عنہ that

حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَمْرِو بْنِ السَّرْحِ الْمِصْرِيُّ،‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ وَهْبٍ،‏‏‏‏ عَنْ أَبِي هَانِئٍ،‏‏‏‏ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ مَالِكٍ الْجَنْبِيِّ،‏‏‏‏ أَنَّ فَضَالَةَ بْنَ عُبَيْدٍ حَدَّثَهُ،‏‏‏‏ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ،‏‏‏‏ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ الْمُؤْمِنُ مَنْ أَمِنَهُ النَّاسُ عَلَى أَمْوَالِهِمْ وَأَنْفُسِهِمْ،‏‏‏‏ وَالْمُهَاجِرُ مَنْ هَجَرَ الْخَطَايَا وَالذُّنُوبَ .

The Prophet (ﷺ) said: “The believer is the one from whom their (people’s) wealth and lives are safe, and the Muhajir is the one who forsakes mistakes and sins.”

Fadalah bin ‘Ubaid رضی اللہ عنہ narrated that

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ،‏‏‏‏ وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى،‏‏‏‏ قَالَا:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ،‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ،‏‏‏‏ عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ،‏‏‏‏ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ،‏‏‏‏ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ مَنِ انْتَهَبَ نُهْبَةً مَشْهُورَةً فَلَيْسَ مِنَّا .

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Whoever plunders openly is not one of us.”

It was narrated from Jabir bin ‘Abdullah رضی اللہ عنہما that

حَدَّثَنَا عِيسَى بْنُ حَمَّادٍ،‏‏‏‏ أَنْبَأَنَا اللَّيْثُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ،‏‏‏‏ عَنْ عُقَيْلٍ،‏‏‏‏ عَنْ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ،‏‏‏‏ عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ هِشَامٍ،‏‏‏‏ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ،‏‏‏‏ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ،‏‏‏‏ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ لَا يَزْنِي الزَّانِي حِينَ يَزْنِي وَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ،‏‏‏‏ وَلَا يَشْرَبُ الْخَمْرَ حِينَ يَشْرَبُهَا وَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ،‏‏‏‏ وَلَا يَسْرِقُ السَّارِقُ حِينَ يَسْرِقُ وَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ،‏‏‏‏ وَلَا يَنْتَهِبُ نُهْبَةً يَرْفَعُ النَّاسُ إِلَيْهِ أَبْصَارَهُمْ،‏‏‏‏ حِينَ يَنْتَهِبُهَا وَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ .

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “The adulterer, at the time he is committing adultery, is not a believer; (the wine drinker) at the time he is drinking, is not a believer; the thief, at the time he is stealing, is not a believer; the plunderer, at the time he is plundering with the people looking on, is not a believer.”

It was narrated from Abu Hurairah رضی اللہ عنہ that

حَدَّثَنَا حُمَيْدُ بْنُ مَسْعَدَةَ،‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ زُرَيْعٍ،‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا حُمَيْدٌ،‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ،‏‏‏‏ عَنْ عِمْرَانَ بْنِ الْحُصَيْنِ،‏‏‏‏ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ،‏‏‏‏ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ مَنِ انْتَهَبَ نُهْبَةً فَلَيْسَ مِنَّا .

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Whoever plunders is not one of us.”

It was narrated from ‘Imran bin Husain رضی اللہ عنہما that

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ،‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْأَحْوَصِ،‏‏‏‏ عَنْ سِمَاكٍ،‏‏‏‏ عَنْ ثَعْلَبَةَ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ،‏‏‏‏ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ أَصَبْنَا غَنَمًا لِلْعَدُوِّ،‏‏‏‏ فَانْتَهَبْنَاهَا،‏‏‏‏ فَنَصَبْنَا قُدُورَنَا،‏‏‏‏ فَمَرَّ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِالْقُدُورِ،‏‏‏‏ فَأَمَرَ بِهَا فَأُكْفِئَتْ،‏‏‏‏ ثُمَّ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ إِنَّ النُّهْبَةَ لَا تَحِلُّ .

“We came across some of the enemy’s sheep and plundered them, and set up our cooking pots. The Prophet (ﷺ) passed by the pots and ordered that they be overturned, then he said: ‘Plunder is not permissible.’”

It was narrated that Tha’labah bin Hakam رضی اللہ عنہ said

حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ،‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا عِيسَى بْنُ يُونُسَ،‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ،‏‏‏‏ عَنْ شَقِيقٍ،‏‏‏‏ عَنْ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ،‏‏‏‏ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ سِبَابُ الْمُسْلِمِ فُسُوقٌ،‏‏‏‏ وَقِتَالُهُ كُفْرٌ .

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Verbally abusing a Muslim is Fusuq disobedience and fighting him is Kufr (ungratefulness to Allah).’”

It was narrated from Ibn Mas’ud رضی اللہ عنہ that
