[Machine] He informed him and he was an elderly knowledgeable sheikh. He had encountered among the people of his town, from the Bani Harithah, companions of the Prophet ﷺ , men such as Rafe' ibn Khadeej, Sahl ibn Abu Hathmah, and Suwaid ibn Al Nu'man. They narrated to him that there was a dispute among them in Bani Harithah ibn Al Harith over a man from the Ansar named Abdullah ibn Sahl, who was killed in Khaybar. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to them, "You must swear by fifty men to hold your killer responsible." They replied, "O Messenger of Allah, we did not witness it nor were we present." Bashir claimed that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ then said to them, "The Jews will clear you by fifty." Sufyan ibn 'Uyaynah mentioned this narration from Yahya, differing from the majority in wording.
