حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ ، حَدَّثَنَا يُوسُفُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا هَارُونُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ الْحَنَفِيِّ ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ ، قَالَ : أَمَرَنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ أُعْوِرَ آبَارَهَا ، يَعْنِي : يَوْمَ بَدْرٍ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: "The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered me on the day of the Battle of Badr to blind those wells (of the disbelievers) (that is, to fill them with earth and stones and block them so that they could not be used)."
Imam Abu Ya'la al-Mawsili recorded this hadith in his Musnad (4252); it establishes the permissibility, as a strategy of war, of weakening the enemy's material resources and strength.
