ذِكْرُ مَا يُسْتَحَبُّ لِلْإِمَامِ اسْتِعْمَالُ الْمُفَادَاةِ بَيْنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ وَبَيْنَ الْأَعْدَاءِ إِذَا رَأَى ذَلِكَ لَهُمْ صَلَاحًا
[Machine] Two men from the companions of the Prophet ﷺ were captured by the people of Thaqeef, and the companions of the Prophet ﷺ had captured a man from the Banu Amer bin Sa'sa'ah tribe. He passed by the Prophet ﷺ while he was bound, so he called out to him, "O Muhammad, O Muhammad." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ approached him and asked, "Why are you being held captive?" He replied, "By the rights of your allies." The Prophet ﷺ then continued on his way. He called out to him again, and the Prophet ﷺ came to him. The captive said to him, "I am a Muslim." The Prophet ﷺ responded, "If you had said that while you were in control of your affairs, you would have succeeded greatly." The Prophet ﷺ then continued on his way. He called out to him once more, and the Prophet ﷺ came to him. The captive said to him, "I am hungry. Please feed me." The Prophet ﷺ said to him, "This is your need." Then, the Prophet ﷺ ransomed him by giving the two men who were captured by the people of Thaqeef.
