11. Chapter of Rā (Male)
١١۔ بَابُ الرَّاءِ
A man of the Ansar was killed at Khaybar and his relatives went to the Prophet ﷺ and mentioned that to him. He asked: Have you two witnesses who can testify to the murderer of your friend? They replied: Messenger of Allah! there was not a single Muslim present, but only Jews who sometimes have the audacity to do even greater crimes than this. He said: Then choose fifty of them and demand that they take an oath; but they refused and the Prophet ﷺ paid the blood-wit himself. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 4524)
أَصْبَحَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ مَقْتُولًا بِخَيْبَرَ فَانْطَلَقَ أَوْلِيَاؤُهُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَذَكَرُوا ذَلِكَ لَهُ فَقَالَ «لَكُمْ شَاهِدَانِ يَشْهَدَانِ عَلَى قَاتَلِ صَاحِبِكُمْ؟» قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ لَمْ يَكُنْ ثَمَّ أَحَدٌ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ وَإِنَّمَا هُمْ يَهُودٌ وَهُمْ يَجْتَرِؤُونَ عَلَى مَا هُوَ أَعْظَمُ مِنْ هَذَا قَالَ «فَاخْتَارُوا مِنْهُمْ خَمْسِينَ فَاسْتَحْلِفُوهُمْ» فَوَدَاهُمْ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مِنْ عِنْدَهُ
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to Bilal, "Illuminate with the dawn as much as the people can see the nobility of their places."
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ لِبِلَالٍ «نَوِّرْ بِالْفَجْرِ قَدْرَ مَا يُبْصِرُ الْقَوْمُ مَوَاقِعَ نَبْلِهِمْ»
[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, "Illuminate with the dawn as much as people can see the noble sites of their ancestors."
سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «نَوِّرُوا بِالْفَجْرِ قَدْرَ مَا يُبْصِرُ الْقَوْمُ مَوَاقِعَ نَبْلِهِمْ»
[Machine] That the Prophet ﷺ passed by a field while it was being cultivated, so he asked about it and was told that the land belonged to the family of Usaid. So the Prophet ﷺ ordered him to take rent from them and give them what is due for their land. The wording is from Ahmad ibn Saleh. Ahmad ibn Saleh said, "And al-ita' (إِتَاءَ) is the value of what is produced."
أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ مَرَّ عَلَيْهِ وَهُوَ مُزْدَرِعٌ فَسَأَلَهُ عَنْهَا فَأَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ الْأَرْضَ لِآلِ أُسَيْدٍ فَكَارَاهَا مِنْهُمْ فَأَمَرَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «أَنْ يَأْخُذَ كِرَاءَهُ مِنْهُمْ وَيُؤَدِّيَ إِلَيْهِمْ إِتَاءَ أَرْضِهِمْ» «وَاللَّفْظُ لِأَحْمَدَ بْنِ صَالِحٍ» قَالَ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ وَالْإِتَاءُ هُوَ الْقِيمَةُ قِيمَةُ مَا يَخْرُجُ
