[Machine] "And the first person to narrate in this mosque, meaning the Grand Mosque, said, 'I participated in four battles with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ .' He said, 'Some people took captives after killing the enemy, and this news reached the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . He said, 'What is wrong with certain people that they kill captives before taking them?' A man said, 'O Messenger of Allah, aren't they the children of the polytheists?' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Indeed, the best among you are the children of the polytheists. Each child is born upon true nature (Fitrah), and then his parents make him a Jew or a Christian.' Hasan then concealed it."
