حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ حَكِيمٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا بِشْرُ بْنُ عُمَرَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏سَمِعْتُ مَالِكَ بْنَ أَنَسٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو لَيْلَى بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ سَهْلٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ أَبِي حَثْمَةَ أَنَّهُ أَخْبَرَهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ رِجَالٍ مِنْ كُبَرَاءِ قَوْمِهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ سَهْلٍ وَمُحَيِّصَةَ خَرَجَا إِلَى خَيْبَرَ مِنْ جَهْدٍ أَصَابَهُمْ فَأُتِيَ مُحَيِّصَةُ فَأُخْبِرَ أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ سَهْلٍ قَدْ قُتِلَ وَأُلْقِيَ فِي فَقِيرٍ أَوْ عَيْنٍ بِخَيْبَرَ فَأَتَى يَهُودَ فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ أَنْتُمْ وَاللَّهِ قَتَلْتُمُوهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالُوا:‏‏‏‏ وَاللَّهِ مَا قَتَلْنَاهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ حَتَّى قَدِمَ عَلَى قَوْمِهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ لَهُمْ ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ هُوَ وَأَخُوهُ حُوَيِّصَةُ وَهُوَ أَكْبَرُ مِنْهُ وَعَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ سَهْلٍ فَذَهَبَ مُحَيِّصَةُ يَتَكَلَّمُ وَهُوَ الَّذِي كَانَ بِخَيْبَرَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِمُحَيِّصَةَ:‏‏‏‏ كَبِّرْ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏كَبِّرْ يُرِيدُ السِّنَّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَتَكَلَّمَ حُوَيِّصَةُ ثُمَّ تَكَلَّمَ مُحَيِّصَةُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ إِمَّا أَنْ يَدُوا صَاحِبَكُمْ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَإِمَّا أَنْ يُؤْذَنُوا بِحَرْبٍ فَكَتَبَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِلَيْهِمْ فِي ذَلِكَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَكَتَبُوا:‏‏‏‏ إِنَّا وَاللَّهِ مَا قَتَلْنَاهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِحُوَيِّصَةَ:‏‏‏‏ وَمُحَيِّصَةَ وَعَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ:‏‏‏‏ تَحْلِفُونَ وَتَسْتَحِقُّونَ دَمَ صَاحِبِكُمْ؟ قَالُوا:‏‏‏‏ لَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ فَتَحْلِفُ لَكُمْ يَهُودُ؟ قَالُوا:‏‏‏‏ لَيْسُوا بِمُسْلِمِينَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَوَدَاهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنْ عِنْدِهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَبَعَثَ إِلَيْهِمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِائَةَ نَاقَةٍ حَتَّى أُدْخِلَتْ عَلَيْهِمُ الدَّارَ. فَقَالَ سَهْلٌ:‏‏‏‏ فَلَقَدْ رَكَضَتْنِي مِنْهَا نَاقَةٌ حَمْرَاءُ

'Abdullah bin Sahl and Muhayyishah رضی اللہ عنہما set out for Khaibar because of some problem that had arisen. Someone came to Muhayyishah رضی اللہ عنہ, and he told him that Abdullah bin Sahl رضی اللہ عنہ had been killed and thrown into a pit or well in Khaibar. He came to the Jews and said: “By Allah, you killed him.” They said: “By Allah, we did not kill him.” Then he went back to his people and told them about that. Then he and his brother Huwayyisah, who was older than him, and 'Abdur-Rahman bin Sahl رضی اللہ عنہما , came (to the Prophet (ﷺ)). Muhayyisah رضی اللہ عنہ, who was the one who had been at Khaibar, went and he began to speak, but the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Let the elder speak first.” So Huwayyisah رضی اللہ عنہ spoke, then Muhayyisah رضی اللہ عنہ spoke. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Either (the Jews) will pay the blood money for your companion, or war will be declared on them.” The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) sent a letter to that effect (to the Jews) and they wrote back saying: “By Allah, we did not kill him.” The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said to Huwayyisah, Muhayyisah and Abdur-Rahman رضی اللہ عنہم: “Will you swear an oath establishing your claim to the blood money of your companion?” They said: “No” He said: “Should the Jews swear an oath for you?” They said: “They are not Muslims.” So the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) paid the blood money himself, and he sent one hundred she-camels to them and some of them entered the house. Sahl رضی اللہ عنہ said: “A red she-camels from among them kicked me.”
