Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 35644 — Those who disliked giving
٣٥٦٤٤ - حدثنا وكيع قال: ثنا الأعمش عن أبي وائل قال: أتانا كتاب عمر ونحن بخانقين: إذا حاصرتم قصرا فأرادوكم على أن ينزلوا على حكم اللَّه فلا تنزلوهم، فإنكم لا تدرون تصيبون فيهم (حكم اللَّه) (١) أم لا، ولكن أنزلوهم على حكمكم، ثم اقضوا فيهم (٢) بعدُ ما شئتم (٣).
Abu Wa'il said: We were at Khaniqin when a letter from Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) came to us, in which was written: When you besiege a fortress and they ask you to let them come down on the judgment of Allah, do not let them, for you do not know whether you will reach Allah's judgment concerning them or not. Rather, let them come down on your own judgment, and after that deal with them as you wish.
