Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 8423 — Qasamah (the collective oath) was one
وَبِهِ : حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو قُرَّةَ قَالَ : قَالَ ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ : سَمِعْتُ أَبِي ، يَقُولُ : أَخْبَرَنِي ابْنُ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ ، يَقُولُ : كَانَتِ الْقَسَامَةُ مِنْ أَمْرِ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ ، فَأَقَرَّهَا رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - لِيَكُونَ أَكَفَّ النَّاسِ عَنِ الدِّمَاءِ .
Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "Qasamah (the collective oath) was one of the customs of the Jahiliyyah; then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) retained it, so that people would refrain all the more from shedding blood."
