When the tribe of Bani Quraiza was ready to accept Saʿd's judgment, Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent for Saʿd who was near to him. Saʿd came, riding a donkey and when he came near, Messenger of Allah ﷺ said (to the Ansar), "Stand up for your leader." Then Saʿd came and sat beside Messenger of Allah ﷺ who said to him. "These people are ready to accept your judgment." Saʿd said, "I give the judgment that their warriors should be killed and their children and women should be taken as prisoners." The Prophet ﷺ then remarked, "O Saʿd! You have judged amongst them with (or similar to) the judgment of the King Allah."  

عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ ؓ قَالَ لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ بَنُو قُرَيْظَةَ عَلَى حُكْمِ سَعْدٍ هُوَ ابْنُ مُعَاذٍ بَعَثَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَكَانَ قَرِيبًا مِنْهُ فَجَاءَ عَلَى حِمَارٍ فَلَمَّا دَنَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ قُومُوا إِلَى سَيِّدِكُمْ فَجَاءَ فَجَلَسَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ لَهُ إِنَّ هَؤُلاَءِ نَزَلُوا عَلَى حُكْمِكَ قَالَ فَإِنِّي أَحْكُمُ أَنْ تُقْتَلَ الْمُقَاتِلَةُ وَأَنْ تُسْبَى الذُّرِّيَّةُ قَالَ لَقَدْ حَكَمْتَ فِيهِمْ بِحُكْمِ الْمَلِكِ  

Some people (i.e. the Jews of Bani bin Quraiza) agreed to accept the verdict of Saʿd bin Muʿadh so the Prophet ﷺ sent for him (i.e. Saʿd bin Muʿadh). He came riding a donkey, and when he approached the Mosque, the Prophet ﷺ said, "Get up for the best amongst you." or said, "Get up for your chief." Then the Prophet ﷺ said, "O Saʿd! These people have agreed to accept your verdict." Saʿd said, "I judge that their warriors should be killed and their children and women should be taken as captives." The Prophet said, "You have given a judgment similar to Allah's Judgment (or the King's judgment).  

عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ ؓ أَنَّ أُنَاسًا نَزَلُوا عَلَى حُكْمِ سَعْدِ بْنِ مُعَاذٍ فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَيْهِ فَجَاءَ عَلَى حِمَارٍ فَلَمَّا بَلَغَ قَرِيبًا مِنَ الْمَسْجِدِ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ قُومُوا إِلَى خَيْرِكُمْ أَوْ سَيِّدِكُمْ فَقَالَ يَا سَعْدُ إِنَّ هَؤُلاَءِ نَزَلُوا عَلَى حُكْمِكَ قَالَ فَإِنِّي أَحْكُمُ فِيهِمْ أَنْ تُقْتَلَ مُقَاتِلَتُهُمْ وَتُسْبَى ذَرَارِيُّهُمْ قَالَ حَكَمْتَ بِحُكْمِ اللَّهِ أَوْ بِحُكْمِ الْمَلِكِ  

Bani An-Nadir and Bani Quraiza fought (against the Prophet ﷺ violating their peace treaty), so the Prophet exiled Bani An-Nadir and allowed Bani Quraiza to remain at their places (in Medina) taking nothing from them till they fought against the Prophet ﷺ again) . He then killed their men and distributed their women, children and property among the Muslims, but some of them came to the Prophet ﷺ and he granted them safety, and they embraced Islam. He exiled all the Jews from Medina. They were the Jews of Bani Qainuqa', the tribe of ʿAbdullah bin Salam and the Jews of Bani Haritha and all the other Jews of Medina.  

حَارَبَتِ النَّضِيرُ وَقُرَيْظَةُ فَأَجْلَى بَنِي النَّضِيرِ وَأَقَرَّ قُرَيْظَةَ وَمَنَّ عَلَيْهِمْ حَتَّى حَارَبَتْ قُرَيْظَةُ فَقَتَلَ رِجَالَهُمْ وَقَسَمَ نِسَاءَهُمْ وَأَوْلاَدَهُمْ وَأَمْوَالَهُمْ بَيْنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ إِلاَّ بَعْضَهُمْ لَحِقُوا بِالنَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَآمَنَهُمْ وَأَسْلَمُوا وَأَجْلَى يَهُودَ الْمَدِينَةِ كُلَّهُمْ بَنِي قَيْنُقَاعَ وَهُمْ رَهْطُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ سَلاَمٍ وَيَهُودَ بَنِي حَارِثَةَ وَكُلَّ يَهُودِ الْمَدِينَةِ  

"The sons of Quraizah told me that they were presented to the Messenger of Allah on the Day of Quraizah, and whoever (among them) had reached puberty, or had grown pubic hair, was killed, and whoever had not reached puberty and had not grown pubic hair was left (alive)."  

حَدَّثَنِي أَبْنَاءُ قُرَيْظَةَ أَنَّهُمْ عُرِضُوا عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَوْمَ قُرَيْظَةَ فَمَنْ كَانَ مُحْتَلِمًا أَوْ نَبَتَتْ عَانَتُهُ قُتِلَ وَمَنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ مُحْتَلِمًا أَوْ لَمْ تَنْبُتْ عَانَتُهُ تُرِكَ  

"On the day of (the battle of) Al-Ahzab, Sa'd bin Mu'adh was struck by an arrow such that the upper vein or lower vein of his forearm was severed. So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ tried to stop it with fire, but it made his arm bleed profusely so he left it. Then he did it another time but it caused it to bleed profusely. Upon seeing that he said: 'O Allah! Do not allow my soul depart until my eyes are comforted by elimination of Banu Quraizah.' He pressed his vein closed and it did not bleed a drop before they surrendered to the arbitration of Sa'd bin Mu'adh. He (the Prophet ﷺ) sent to him (Sa'd) who judged that their men should be killed, their women should be spared, and that the Muslims may share them among themselves. With this, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'You have judged according to Allah's judgement for them.' And they were four hundred. Then when he finished killing them, his vein opened up and he died." [He said:] There are narrations on this topic from Abu Sa'eed and 'Atiyyah Al-Qurazi.  

أَنَّهُ قَالَ رُمِيَ يَوْمَ الأَحْزَابِ سَعْدُ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ فَقَطَعُوا أَكْحَلَهُ أَوْ أَبْجَلَهُ فَحَسَمَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِالنَّارِ فَانْتَفَخَتْ يَدُهُ فَتَرَكَهُ فَنَزَفَهُ الدَّمُ فَحَسَمَهُ أُخْرَى فَانْتَفَخَتْ يَدُهُ فَلَمَّا رَأَى ذَلِكَ قَالَ اللَّهُمَّ لاَ تُخْرِجْ نَفْسِي حَتَّى تُقِرَّ عَيْنِي مِنْ بَنِي قُرَيْظَةَ فَاسْتَمْسَكَ عِرْقُهُ فَمَا قَطَرَ قَطْرَةً حَتَّى نَزَلُوا عَلَى حُكْمِ سَعْدِ بْنِ مُعَاذٍ فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَيْهِ فَحَكَمَ أَنْ يُقْتَلَ رِجَالُهُمْ وَيُسْتَحْيَى نِسَاؤُهُمْ يَسْتَعِينُ بِهِنَّ الْمُسْلِمُونَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَصَبْتَ حُكْمَ اللَّهِ فِيهِمْ وَكَانُوا أَرْبَعَمِائَةٍ فَلَمَّا فَرَغَ مِنْ قَتْلِهِمُ انْفَتَقَ عِرْقُهُ فَمَاتَ قَالَ وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ وَعَطِيَّةَ الْقُرَظِيِّ  

[Machine] On the day of the Battle of Quraizah and Nadir, Saad ibn Muadh was targeted and his eye was injured. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ attended to him and he became clean and tidy. Then it happened again, and Saad said, "O Allah, do not take my soul until You satisfy my eye regarding Quraizah and Nadir."  

رُمِيَ سَعْدُ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ ؓ يَوْمَ قُرَيْظَةَ وَالنَّضِيرِ فَقُطِعَ أَكْحَلُهُ فَحَسَمَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَتَعَفَّرَ وانْتَفَضَ فَحَسَمَهُ الثَّانِيَةَ فَقَالَ سَعْدٌ ؓ اللهُمَّ لَا تَنْزِعْ نَفْسِي حَتَّى تُقِرَّ عَيْنِي مِنْ قُرَيْظَةَ وَالنَّضِيرِ  

[Machine] "I was presented to the Prophet ﷺ on the Day of Quraizah, but they did not find me pubescent so they let me go."  

«عُرِضْتُ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ يَوْمَ قُرَيْظَةَ فَلَمْ يَجِدُونِي أَنْبَتُّ فَخَلَّوْنِي»  

[Machine] al-Ḥasan said: Banu Qurayẓah were judged by Sād b. Muʿādh, so the Messenger of Allah ﷺ killed three hundred of them, and he said to the remaining: Go to the land of the maḥshar (final gathering), for we will join you there, meaning the land of Sham, and they were made to travel there.  

"عَنِ الحَسَنِ قَالَ: نَزَلَ بَنُو قريظة عَلَى حُكْمِ سَعْدِ بْنِ مُعَاذٍ، فَقَتَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ منْهُمْ ثلاثمائة، وَقَالَ لِبَقيَّتِهِمْ: انْطَلِقُوا إلى أَرْضِ المَحْشَرِ فَإِنَّا في آثَارِكُمْ يَعْنِى أَرْضَ الشَّامِ فسَيَّرَهُمْ إِلَيْهَا".  

"On the authority of Urwah, he said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said on the Day of Quraizah: War is deception."  

"عَنْ عُرْوَةَ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُول اللَّه ﷺ يَوْمَ قُرَيْظَةَ: الحَربُ خُدْعَة".
