Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 3866 — the Prophet ﷺ said: Indeed Allah, the Mighty

حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الرَّازِيُّ قَالَ : نَا أَبُو حَسَّانَ الزِّيَادِيُّ قَالَ : نَا شُعَيْبُ بْنُ صَفْوَانَ ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ السَّائِبِ ، عَنْ طَاوُسٍ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ : إِنَّ اللهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ حَرَّمَ هَذَا الْبَلَدَ ، يَوْمَ خَلَقَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ ، وَصَاغَهُ حِينَ صَاغَ الشَّمْسَ وَالْقَمَرَ ، وَمَا حِيَالُهُ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ حَرَامٌ ، وَإِنَّهُ لَمْ يَحِلَّ لِأَحَدٍ قَبْلِي ، وَإِنَّهُ أُحِلَّ لِي سَاعَةً مِنْ نَهَارٍ ، ثُمَّ عَادَ كَمَا كَانَ I " . فَقِيلَ لَهُ : هَذَا خَالِدُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ يَقْتُلُ ، فَقَالَ لَهُ : I " قُمْ يَا فُلَانُ ، فَأْتِ خَالِدَ بْنَ الْوَلِيدِ ، فَقُلْ لَهُ فَلْيَرْفَعْ يَدَهُ مِنَ الْقَتْلِ I " ، فَأَتَاهُ الرَّجُلُ ، فَقَالَ لَهُ : إِنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ : I " اقْتُلْ مَنْ قَدَرْتَ عَلَيْهِ I " ، فَقَتَلَ سَبْعِينَ إِنْسَانًا ، فَأَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ لَهُ ، فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَى خَالِدِ بْنِ الْوَلِيدِ : I " أَلَمْ أَنْهَكَ عَنِ الْقَتْلِ ؟ I " فَقَالَ : جَاءَنِي فُلَانٌ ، فَأَمَرَنِي أَنْ أَقْتُلَ مَنْ قَدَرْتُ عَلَيْهِ ، فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَيْهِ : I " أَلَمْ آمُرْكَ أَنْ تَأْمُرَ خَالِدًا أَنْ لَا يَقْتُلَ أَحَدًا ؟ I " فَقَالَ : أَرَدْتَ أَمْرًا ، وَأَرَادَ اللهُ أَمْرًا ، وَكَانَ أَمْرُ اللهِ فَوْقَ أَمْرِكَ ، وَمَا اسْتَطَعْتُ إِلَّا الَّذِي كَانَ ، فَسَكَتَ عَنْهُ نَبِيُّ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَمَا رَدَّ عَلَيْهِ شَيْئًا .
لَمْ يَرْوِ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ السَّائِبِ إِلَّا شُعَيْبُ بْنُ صَفْوَانَ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Indeed Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, made this city (Makkah) sacred on the day He created the heavens and the earth, and He fashioned it (with its sanctity) when He fashioned the sun and the moon, and what lies opposite it of the sky is also sacred. It was never made lawful for anyone before me, and it was made lawful for me for one hour of a day, then it returned to its former state." Then it was said to him (peace and blessings be upon him): "This is Khalid bin al-Walid killing (people)." So he (peace and blessings be upon him) said to a man: "O so-and-so, get up, go to Khalid bin al-Walid and tell him to withhold his hand from killing." The man went to him and said: "The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) says: 'Kill whomever you can overpower.'" So he killed seventy people. Then the man came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and mentioned that to him. He (peace and blessings be upon him) sent for Khalid bin al-Walid and said: "Did I not forbid you from killing?" He said: "So-and-so came to me and ordered me to kill whomever I could overpower." Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) sent for that man and said: "Did I not order you to tell Khalid not to kill anyone?" He said: "You wanted one thing and Allah wanted another, and Allah's decree prevails over your wish; I could do nothing other than what happened." So the Prophet of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) fell silent and gave him no reply.
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "No one narrated this hadith from Ata' bin al-Sa'ib except Shu'ayb bin Safwan."
