حَدَّثَنَا أبو عُبَيْدَةَ بن أبي السَّفَرِ وَاسْمُهُ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْهَمْدَانِيُّ الْكُوفِيُّ ، وَمَحْمُودُ بْنُ غَيْلَانَ، قَالَا : حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ الْحَفَرِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ زَكَرِيَّاءَ بْنِ أَبِي زَائِدَةَ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ هِشَامٍ، عَنْ ابْنِ سِيرِينَ، عَنْ عَبِيدَةَ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ، أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ : " إِنَّ جِبْرَائِيلَ هَبَطَ عَلَيْهِ ، فَقَالَ لَهُ : خَيِّرْهُمْ ، يَعْنِي : أَصْحَابَكَ ، فِي أُسَارَى بَدْرٍ ، الْقَتْلَ أَوِ الْفِدَاءَ ، عَلَى أَنْ يُقْتَلَ مِنْهُمْ قَابِلًا مِثْلُهُمْ ، قَالُوا : الْفِدَاءَ ، وَيُقْتَلُ مِنَّا " ، وَفِي الْبَاب ، عَنْ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ ، وَأَنَسٍ ، وَأَبِي بَرْزَةَ ، وَجُبَيْرِ بْنِ مُطْعِمٍ ، قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى : هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ مِنْ حَدِيثِ الثَّوْرِيِّ ، لَا نَعْرِفُهُ إِلَّا مِنْ حَدِيثِ ابْنِ أَبِي زَائِدَةَ ، وَرَوَى أَبُو أُسَامَةَ، عَنْ هِشَامٍ، عَنْ ابْنِ سِيرِينَ، عَنْ عَبِيدَةَ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، نَحْوَهُ ، وَرَوَى ابْنُ عَوْنٍ، عَنْ ابْنِ سِيرِينَ، عَنْ عَبِيدَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مُرْسَلًا ، وَأَبُو دَاوُدَ الْحَفَرِيُّ اسْمُهُ عُمَرُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ .
Narrated from Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Jibreel came to me and said: Give your companions the choice regarding the captives of Badr; if they wish, they may kill them, or if they wish, they may take ransom. In the case of ransom, the same number of men from among them will be killed next year." They said: "We will take ransom, and some of us will be killed." 1. © Imam Tirmidhi says:
