وحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، وَابْنُ بَشَّارٍ، وَأَلْفَاظُهُمْ مُتَقَارِبَةٌ، قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ: حَدَّثَنَا غُنْدَرٌ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ، وقَالَ الْآخَرَانِ: حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ أَبَا أُمَامَةَ بْنَ سَهْلِ بْنِ حُنَيْفٍ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ أَبَا سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيَّ، قَالَ: نَزَلَ أَهْلُ قُرَيْظَةَ عَلَى حُكْمِ سَعْدِ بْنِ مُعَاذٍ، فَأَرْسَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِلَى سَعْدٍ، فَأَتَاهُ عَلَى حِمَارٍ، فَلَمَّا دَنَا قَرِيبًا مِنَ الْمَسْجِدِ، قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِلْأَنْصَارِ: «قُومُوا إِلَى سَيِّدِكُمْ» أَوْ «خَيْرِكُمْ»، ثُمَّ قَالَ: «إِنَّ هَؤُلَاءِ نَزَلُوا عَلَى حُكْمِكَ»، قَالَ: تَقْتُلُ مُقَاتِلَتَهُمْ وَتَسْبِي ذُرِّيَّتَهُمْ، قَالَ: فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «قَضَيْتَ بِحُكْمِ اللهِ»، وَرُبَّمَا قَالَ: «قَضَيْتَ بِحُكْمِ الْمَلِكِ»، وَلَمْ يَذْكُرِ ابْنُ الْمُثَنَّى وَرُبَّمَا قَالَ: «قَضَيْتَ بِحُكْمِ الْمَلِكِ».

The people of Quraiza surrendered accepting the decision of Sa'd bin Mu'adh رضی اللہ عنہ about them. Accordingly, the Messenger of Allah ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) sent for Sa'd who came to him riding a donkey. When he approached the mosque, the Messenger of Allah ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) said to the Ansar: Stand up to receive your chieftain. Then he said (to Sa'd): These people have surrendered accepting your decision. He (Sa'd) said: You will kill their fighters and capture their women and children. (Hearing this), the Prophet (ﷺ) said: You have adjudged by the command of God. The narrator is reported to have said: Perhaps he said: You have adjuged by the decision of a king. Ibn Muthanna (in his version of the tradition) has not mentioned the alternative words.
