When we were with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ on an expedition, he saw some people collected together over something and sent a man and said: See, what are these people collected around? He then came and said: They are round a woman who has been killed. He said: This is not one with whom fighting should have taken place. Khalid ibn al-Walid was in charge of the van; so he sent a man and said: Tell Khalid not to kill a woman or a hired servant.  

كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي غَزْوَةٍ فَرَأَى النَّاسَ مُجْتَمِعِينَ عَلَى شَىْءٍ فَبَعَثَ رَجُلاً فَقَالَ انْظُرْ عَلاَمَ اجْتَمَعَ هَؤُلاَءِ فَجَاءَ فَقَالَ عَلَى امْرَأَةٍ قَتِيلٍ فَقَالَ مَا كَانَتْ هَذِهِ لِتُقَاتِلَ قَالَ وَعَلَى الْمُقَدِّمَةِ خَالِدُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ فَبَعَثَ رَجُلاً فَقَالَ قُلْ لِخَالِدٍ لاَ يَقْتُلَنَّ امْرَأَةً وَلاَ عَسِيفًا  

[Machine] "We accompanied the Prophet ﷺ and passed by a murdered woman who had gathered a crowd around her. He said, 'Give her some space.' Then he said to a man, 'Go to Khalid ibn al-Walid and tell him that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ orders you not to kill any offspring or captives.'"  

غَزَوْنَا مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَمَرَرْنَا عَلَى امْرَأَةٍ مَقْتُولَةٍ وَقَدِ اجْتَمَعَ عَلَيْهَا النَّاسُ قَالَ فَأَفْرَجُوا لَهُ فَقَالَ مَا كَانَتْ هَذِهِ تُقَاتَلُ ثُمَّ قَالَ لِرَجُلٍ انْطَلِقْ إِلَى خَالِدِ بْنِ الْوَلِيدِ فَقُلْ لَهُ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَأْمُرُكَ أَنْ لَا تَقْتُلَ ذُرِّيَّةً وَلَا عَسِيفًا  

[Machine] "We were raiding with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ when we passed by a woman who had been killed and had people gathered around her. They uncovered her for the Prophet ﷺ, who said, 'She should not have been killed.' Then he said, 'Go, for the truth is with Khalid ibn al-Walid and tell him not to kill any offspring or maid servant.'"  

غَزَوْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَمَرَرْنَا بِامْرَأَةٍ قَدْ قُتِلَتْ لَهَا خَلْقٌ وَالنَّاسُ عَلَيْهَا فَفَرَّجُوا لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ «مَا كَانَتْ هَذِهِ لِتُقَاتِلُ» ثُمَّ قَالَ اذْهَبْ فَالْحَقْ خَالِدَ بْنَ الْوَلِيدِ فَقُلْ لَا تَقْتُلْ ذُرِّيَّةً وَلَا عَسِيفًا
