(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ ، قَالَ : أَخْبَرَنَا يُونُسُ ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ , عَنِ الْأَسْوَدِ بْنِ سَرِيعٍ , قَالَ : أَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَغَزَوْتُ مَعَهُ ، فَأَصَبْتُ ظَهْرًا ، فَقَتَلَ النَّاسُ يَوْمَئِذٍ حَتَّى قَتَلُوا الْوِلْدَانَ وَقَالَ : مَرَّةً الذُّرِّيَّةَ فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَ : " مَا بَالُ أَقْوَامٍ ، جَاوَزَهُمْ الْقَتْلُ الْيَوْمَ حَتَّى قَتَلُوا الذُّرِّيَّةَ ؟ ! " فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ , إِنَّمَا هُمْ أَوْلَادُ الْمُشْرِكِينَ ، فَقَالَ : " أَلَا إِنَّ خِيَارَكُمْ أَبْنَاءُ الْمُشْرِكِينَ " ثُمَّ قَالَ : " أَلَا لَا تَقْتُلُوا ذُرِّيَّةً ، أَلَا لَا تَقْتُلُوا ذُرِّيَّةً قَالَ كُلُّ نَسَمَةٍ تُولَدُ عَلَى الْفِطْرَةِ حَتَّى يُعْرِبَ عَنْهَا لِسَانُهَا ، فَأَبَوَاهَا يُهَوِّدَانِهَا وَيُنَصِّرَانِهَا " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Aswad bin Sari’ that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) sent a detachment on the occasion of the Battle of Hunayn: they fought against the polytheists, and the fighting extended to the killing of their children. When they returned, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked them, “What compelled you to kill the children?” They replied, “O Messenger of Allah! They were the children of the polytheists.” The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, “Are not the best among you the children of the polytheists? By Him in Whose hand is the soul of Muhammad, every soul that is born in this world is born upon the natural disposition (fitrah) until its tongue expresses itself, and its parents make it a Jew or a Christian.”
