[Machine] From the Prophet ﷺ, it is narrated that he went out to Ghatafan and said, "Who is with the son of Al-Asraf? He has harmed Allah and His Messenger." Muhammad bin Maslamah Al-Harithi said, "O Messenger of Allah, do you want me to kill him?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ remained silent for a while and then said, "Go to Sa'd bin Mu'adh and consult him." So, I went to Sa'd bin Mu'adh and mentioned the matter to him. He said, "Go on the guidance of Allah, and take with you the son of my brother Harith bin Aws, and Ubada bin Bishr Al-Ashhali, and Abu 'Abs bin Jabr Al-Harithi, and Abi Nailan Salkan bin Qays Al-Ashhali." So, I met them and told them the story. They all came with me except Salkan, and he said, "O nephew, I trust you, but I do not want to do anything until I consult the Messenger of Allah ﷺ." So, I told the Prophet ﷺ about it, and he said, "Go with your companions." We went to him at night, and we found him in a fortress. 'Abbad bin Bishr recited a poem describing their killing and capturing, and he said, "I shouted to him, but he did not respond to my voice. Then, a person came down from above the wall, and I returned to him. He asked, "Who is calling?" I said, "Your brother 'Abbad bin Bishr, and here is our shield as a pledge for two months or a half. They have taken them for two months and have never been deprived of luxury without poverty." Then, he came towards us swiftly and said, "You have come for a matter, and in our oaths, we have white iron and black iron by which we punish and destroy. I said to my companion when the swords began to flash, "This is a false kill!" And Ibn Maslamah Al-Muradi attacked him, screaming at him like a lion on the prey. Abu 'Abs bin Jabr tightened his sword on him, and Abu 'Abis bin Jabr struck him with his sword, and Allah was our support and ally, bestowing upon us His favor and granting us victory. A group of generous people joined us, and a Hud came to them with truth and righteousness."
