Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 35338 — Those whom it is forbidden to kill
٣٥٣٣٨ - حدثنا وكيع قال: ثنا صدقة الدمشقي عن يحيى بن يحيى الغساني قال: كتبت إلى عمر بن عبد العزيز أسأله عن هذه الآية: ﴿وَقَاتِلُوا فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ الَّذِينَ يُقَاتِلُونَكُمْ وَلَا تَعْتَدُوا إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَا يُحِبُّ الْمُعْتَدِينَ﴾ [البقرة: ١٩٠]، قال: فكتب ⦗٣٧٨⦘ إلي أن ذلك في النساء والذرية ومن لم ينصب (١) الحرب منهم.
Yahya bin Yahya al-Ghassani (may Allah have mercy on him) reports: I wrote to Umar bin Abd al-Aziz (may Allah have mercy on him) asking him about this verse: "And fight in the way of Allah those who fight you, and do not transgress. Indeed Allah does not love the transgressors." [Al-Baqarah: 190] He wrote back to me in reply and said: "This verse concerns women, children and those of them who do not initiate war."
