عَنِ الصَّعْبِ بْنِ جَثَّامَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ سُئِلَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ أَهْلِ الدَّارِ مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ يُبَيَّتُونَ فَيُصَابُ مِنْ نِسَائِهِمْ وَذَرَارِيِّهِمْ فَقَالَ هُمْ مِنْهُمْ ثُمَّ يَقُولُ الزُّهْرِيُّ ثُمَّ نَهَى عَنْ ذَلِكَ بَعْدُ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Sa'b bin Jathamah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was asked about the houses of the polytheists upon which attacks are made at night, and thus their women and children are also killed. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "They are from among them." Imam Zuhri says: But after that, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade the killing of women and children.
