قَالَ الْحَارِثُ : حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ أَبَانَ ، ثَنَا بَشِيرُ بْنُ الْمُهَاجِرِ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ ، قَالَ : خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي غَزَاةٍ وَاسْتَعْمَلَ خَالِدَ بْنَ الْوَلِيدِ عَلَى مُقَدِّمَتِهِ ، فَرَأَى امْرَأَةً مَقْتُولَةً قَالَ : مَنْ قَتَلَ هَذِهِ ؟ قَالُوا : قَتَلَهَا خَالِدُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِرَجُلٍ : الْحَقْ خَالِدَ بْنَ الْوَلِيدِ فَقُلْ لَهُ : لَا تَقْتُلَنَّ امْرَأَةً وَلَا صَبِيًّا وَلَا عَسِيفًا . وَالْعَسِيفُ : الْأَجِيرُ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Buraydah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) set out on a military expedition and appointed Sayyiduna Khalid bin al-Walid (may Allah be pleased with him) as commander of his vanguard. During this, he (peace and blessings be upon him) saw a slain woman and asked: "Who killed her?" The people said that Sayyiduna Khalid bin al-Walid (may Allah be pleased with him) had killed her. Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said to a man: "Go and catch up with Sayyiduna Khalid bin al-Walid (may Allah be pleased with him) and tell him that he must never kill a woman, a child or an 'asif." And 'asif means "a labourer working for wages".
