بَابُ النَّهْيِ عَنْ قَتْلِ النِّسَاءِ وَالْوِلْدَانِ فِي الْغَزْوِChapter on prohibition of killing women and children in battle
Hadith 966
حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى، عَنْ مَالِك، عَنْ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ ، عَنْ ابْنٍ لِكَعْبِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ : حَسِبْتُ أَنَّهُ قَالَ : عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ كَعْبٍ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ : " نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الَّذِينَ قَتَلُوا ابْنَ أَبِي الْحُقَيْقِ، عَنْ قَتْلِ النِّسَاءِ وَالْوِلْدَانِ "، قَالَ : فَكَانَ رَجُلٌ مِنْهُمْ، يَقُولُ : بَرَّحَتْ بِنَا امْرَأَةُ ابْنِ أَبِي الْحُقَيْقِ بِالصِّيَاحِ، فَأَرْفَعُ السَّيْفَ عَلَيْهَا، ثُمَّ أَذْكُرُ نَهْيَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَكُفُّ، وَلَوْلَا ذَلِكَ اسْتَرَحْنَا مِنْهَا
It is narrated from Abdur Rahman bin Ka'b that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, forbade those people who killed Ibn Abi Al-Huqaiq from killing women and children. Ibn Ka'b said that one of them used to say that the wife of Ibn Abi Al-Huqaiq screamed and exposed our situation, so he raised his sword over her, but then, remembering the prohibition of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, he refrained. If it had not been for that, we would have dealt with her as well.
