Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 35622 — Safe conduct given by a woman

It is narrated from Abd al-Rahman bin Maslamah (may Allah have mercy on him) that a man gave safe conduct (protection) to some people, and he was with Sayyiduna Amr bin al-As, Sayyiduna Khalid bin al-Walid and Sayyiduna Abu Ubaydah bin al-Jarrah (may Allah be pleased with them). Sayyiduna Amr and Sayyiduna Khalid bin al-Walid (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: We will not give protection to the one he has protected. Sayyiduna Abu Ubaydah bin al-Jarrah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever among the Muslims gives protection to someone, that person is to be given protection.
