Yahya (one of the narrators) said: And I think it was from Rafi' bin Khadij - that 'Abdullah bin Sahl bin Zaid and Muhaiysah bin Mas'ud bin Zaid went out and when they reached Khaibar they separated while there. Then Muhayyisah found 'Abdullah bin Sahl murdered [so he buried him]. Then he went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ along with Huwayyisah bin Mas'ud and Abdur-Rahman bin Sahl. The youngest of the people, Abdur-Rahman, went to speak ahead of his companions. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to him: "Let the eldest of you speak." So he was silent and two companions spoke. So he conversed with them and they mentioned to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about the murder of 'Abdullah bin Sahl. He said to them: "If fifty of you can swear an oath then you will have the right against the murderer." They said: "How can we take an oath when we did not witness it?" He said: "Then fifty of Jews can swear to clear the charge with you?" They said: "How could we accept the oaths of a disbelieving people?" So when he saw that, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ paid the blood-money." (Another Chain) from Sahl bin Abi Hathman and Rafi' bin Khadij, and the meaning is similar to this Hadith.

ʿAbdullah bin Sahl and Muhaiyisa bin Masʿud bin Zaid set out to Khaibar, the inhabitants of which had a peace treaty with the Muslims at that time. They parted and later on Muhaiyisa came upon ʿAbdullah bin Sah! and found him murdered agitating in his blood. He buried him and returned to Medina. ʿAbdur Rahman bin Sahl, Muhaiyisa and Huwaiuisa, the sons of Masʿud came to the Prophet ﷺ and ʿAbdur Rahman intended to talk, but the Prophet ﷺ said (to him), "Let the eldest of you speak." as ʿAbdur-Rahman was the youngest:. ʿAbdur-Rahman kept silent and the other two spoke. The Prophet ﷺ said, "If you swear as to who has committed the murder, you will have the right to take your right from the murderer." They said, "How should we swear if we did not witness the murder or see the murderer?" The Prophet ﷺ said, "Then the Jews can clear themselves from the charge by taking Alaska (an oath taken by men that it was not they who committed the murder)." The!y said, "How should we believe in the oaths of infidels?" So, the Prophet ﷺ himself paid the blood money (of ʿAbdullah). (See Hadith No. 36 Vol. 9.)

ʿAbdullah bin Sahl and Muhaiyisa bin Masʿud went to Khaibar and they dispersed in the gardens of the date-palm trees. ʿAbdullah bin Sahl was murdered. Then ʿAbdur-Rahman bin Sahl, Huwaiyisa and Muhaiyisa, the two sons of Masʿud, came to the Prophet ﷺ and spoke about the case of their (murdered) friend. ʿAbdur-Rahman who was the youngest of them all, started talking. The Prophet ﷺ said, "Let the older (among you) speak first." So they spoke about the case of their (murdered) friend. The Prophet ﷺ said, "Will fifty of you take an oath whereby you will have the right to receive the blood money of your murdered man," (or said, "..your companion"). They said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! The murder was a thing we did not witness." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Then the Jews will release you from the oath, if fifty of them (the Jews) should take an oath to contradict your claim." They said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! They are disbelievers (and they will take a false oath)." Then Messenger of Allah ﷺ himself paid the blood money to them.

The eldest one (eldest in regard to age should speak). So he kept quiet, and his companions (Muhayyisa and Huwayyisa) began to speak, and he ('Abd al Rahman) spoke along with them and they narrated to Messenger of Allah ﷺ the murder of 'Abdullah b. Sahl. Thereupon he said to them: Are you prepared to take fifty oaths so that you may be entitled (to blood-wit) of your companion (or your man who has murdered)? They said: How can we take an oath on a matter which we have not witnessed? He (the Holy Prophet) said: Then the Jews will exonerate themselves by fifty oaths. They said: How can we accept the oaths of people who are unbelievers? When Messenger of Allah ﷺ saw that, he himself paid his blood-wit.

You take fifty oaths and you are entitled to blood-wit of (one) slain among you (or your companion).

[Machine] He heard Sahl ibn Abi Hathma saying that Abdullah ibn Sahl was found dead in a poor man, or impoverished district, or Khaybar region. So his brother, Abdullah ibn Sahl, went to the Prophet ﷺ , and his aunt, Huwaisah, and her two sons, Mahysah and Muhyysah, went with him. Then Abdullah ibn Sahl began to speak, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Al-kubra, al-kubra" (the greatest sin, the greatest sin). Then Muhyysah began to speak and mentioned the killing of Abdullah ibn Sahl. He said, "O Messenger of Allah, we found Abdullah ibn Sahl dead, and indeed the Jews are people of disbelief and treachery, and they are the ones who killed him." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Then you all swear fifty oaths, and you will either deserve your companion or the blood of your companion." They said, "O Messenger of Allah, how can we swear oaths about something we did not witness and were not present for?" He said, "Then the Jews will swear fifty oaths to you." They said, "How can we accept oaths from a people who are polytheists?" So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ settled the matter, and Sahl said, "Indeed, it indeed happened to me one morning."

[Machine] Al-Qa'nabi narrated on the authority of Malik that Bakr ibn Sahl al-Dimyati narrated to us, on the authority of Abdullah ibn Yusuf, who said: "I am Malik, on the authority of Abu Layla ibn Abdullah ibn Sahl, on the authority of Sahl ibn Abi Hathmah that he was informed by some of the elders of his people that Abdullah ibn Sahl and Muhaysah went out to Khaybar due to some difficulty that had befallen them. Muhaysah then came and informed them that Abdullah ibn Sahl had been killed and thrown into a well or a blind person's home. He then went to the Jews and said, 'By Allah, you killed him.' They replied, 'By Allah, we did not kill him.' He then continued until he reached his people and mentioned this to them. So he and his brother Huwayyisah, who was older than him, along with Abdur Rahman ibn Sahl, went to Khaybar. Huwayyisah went forth to speak, even though he was the one who had been present in Khaybar. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to Huwayyisah, 'Recite the takbir, recite the takbir,' intending for him to mention the year (of the event). Huwayyisah then spoke, and after him, Muhaysah spoke. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Either they should hand over the killer or they should ready themselves for war.' So the Messenger of Allah sent them a letter regarding this matter and they wrote back, 'By Allah, we did not kill him.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to Huwayyisah, Muhaysah, and Abdur Rahman ibn Sahl, 'You take an oath and you deserve the blood of your companion?' They replied, 'No.' He said, 'Then will the Jews take an oath for you?' They said, 'They are not Muslims.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was very displeased with this and sent them one hundred camels as compensation, until they were brought into their house. Sahl said, 'A red camel from among them ran ahead of me.'"

Thereupon he said to them: Are you prepared to take fifty oaths so that you may be entitled (to blood-wit) of your companion (or your man who has murdered)? They said: How can we take an oath on a matter which we have not witnessed? He (the Holy Prophet) said: Then the Jews will exonerate themselves by fifty oaths.

[Machine] Abdullah ibn Sahl al-Ansari and Muhaishah ibn Mas'ood went to Khaybar and separated for their needs. Abdullah ibn Sahl was killed, and then Muhaishah and Abdurrahman, the brother of the deceased, set out until they came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . Abdurrahman began to speak, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Greater, Greater." Muhaishah and Huwaishah spoke and mentioned the matter of Abdullah ibn Sahl. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Do you swear by fifty and accuse them of killing your companion?" They said, "How can we swear when we did not witness or attend?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Then the Jews will acquit you with fifty oaths." They said, "O Messenger of Allah, how can we accept the oaths of disbelieving people?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "By Allah, the Jew's oaths are acceptable." Bushair ibn Yasir said, "Sahl ibn Abi Hathma outran me in performing a voluntary prayer among those obligatory prayers, and it was in a place called Marbad." We were informed by Muhammad ibn Mansur al-Makki, who narrated from Sufyan, who narrated from Yahya ibn Sa'id, who narrated from Bushair ibn Yasir, who narrated from Sahl ibn Abi Hathma that they found Abdullah ibn Sahl dead. Then his brother, Huwaishah and Muhaishah, who were the uncles of Abdullah ibn Sahl, went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . Abdurrahman began to speak, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Greater, Greater." They said, "O Messenger of Allah, we found Abdullah ibn Sahl dead in a place called Qulayb, meaning near Khaybar." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Who do you accuse?" They said, "We accuse the Jews." He said, "Then you swear by fifty oaths that the Jews killed him?" They said, "How can we swear about something we did not witness?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Then the Jews will acquit you with fifty oaths that they did not kill him." They said, "But how can we accept their oaths when they are polytheists?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ , through divine inspiration, said, "Abdulrahman, send Malik ibn Anas to retrieve him."

[Machine] Abdullah ibn Sahil was struck by misfortune in Khaybar. He went out there with his companions to collect dates when he was found with a broken neck and was left to die. They then took him and hid him. Afterwards, they went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and informed him of what happened. His brother, Abdullah ibn Al-Rahman, came forward with his cousins, Huwayyisah and Muhayyisah, the sons of Mas'ud. Abdullah ibn Al-Rahman was the youngest among them, but he was the bravest of the people. When he spoke before his cousins, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The eldest should speak first." So, Huwayyisah and Muhayyisah spoke first, and then Abdullah spoke. He informed the Prophet ﷺ about the killing of their companion. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "You should name the killer and make a solemn oath of fifty oaths, and we will hand him over to you." They said, "We cannot make an oath about something we do not know." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Then make a solemn oath by Allah, fifty oaths, that you did not kill him and you do not know who killed him, and then you can absolve yourselves from his blood." They said, "We would not accept oaths from the Jews that involve something greater than disbelief, let alone swear oaths about a sin." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ , on behalf of Sahil, offered a hundred camels as compensation. Sahil said, "By Allah, I will not even forget one morning of them. There was a red camel among them that kicked me while I was milking it."

The eldest one (eldest in regard to age should speak). So he kept quiet, and his companions (Muhayyisa and Huwayyisa) began to speak, and he ('Abd al Rahman) spoke along with them and they narrated to Messenger of Allah ﷺ the murder of 'Abdullah b. Sahl. Thereupon he said to them: Are you prepared to take fifty oaths so that you may be entitled (to blood-wit) of your companion (or your man who has murdered)? They said: How can we take an oath on a matter which we have not witnessed? He (the Holy Prophet) said: Then the Jews will exonerate themselves by fifty oaths. They said: How can we accept the oaths of people who are unbelievers? When Messenger of Allah ﷺ saw that, he himself paid his blood-wit. (Using translation from Muslim 1669a)

ʿAbdullah bin Sahl and Muhaiyisa bin Masʿud bin Zaid set out to Khaibar, the inhabitants of which had a peace treaty with the Muslims at that time. They parted and later on Muhaiyisa came upon ʿAbdullah bin Sah! and found him murdered agitating in his blood. He buried him and returned to Medina. ʿAbdur Rahman bin Sahl, Muhaiyisa and Huwaiuisa, the sons of Masʿud came to the Prophet ﷺ and ʿAbdur Rahman intended to talk, but the Prophet ﷺ said (to him), "Let the eldest of you speak." as ʿAbdur-Rahman was the youngest:. ʿAbdur-Rahman kept silent and the other two spoke. The Prophet ﷺ said, "If you swear as to who has committed the murder, you will have the right to take your right from the murderer." They said, "How should we swear if we did not witness the murder or see the murderer?" The Prophet ﷺ said, "Then the Jews can clear themselves from the charge by taking Alaska (an oath taken by men that it was not they who committed the murder)." The!y said, "How should we believe in the oaths of infidels?" So, the Prophet ﷺ himself paid the blood money (of ʿAbdullah). (See Hadith No. 36 Vol. 9.) (Using translation from Bukhārī 3173)

[Machine] That Muhaisha bin Masood and Abdullah bin Sahl went out before the Battle of Khaybar, and they separated in the palm grove. Abdullah bin Sahl was killed, and they accused the Jews. Then his brother, Abdul Rahman bin Sahl, and his cousins Huwayyisa and Muhaisha came to the Prophet ﷺ . Abdul Rahman spoke about the matter of his brother, even though he was the youngest among them. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Let the older among you start speaking." So they both spoke about the matter of their companion, and the Prophet ﷺ said, "Shall I swear by fifty of you to give up his blood money?" They said, "We have never witnessed such a thing, how could we swear?" He said, "So can the Jews be exonerated by the oaths of fifty of them?" They said, "O Messenger of Allah, they are disbelievers." He said, "By Allah, I wish I had accepted it." Sahl said, "One day, I entered a bathhouse belonging to them, and a camel chased me, and it ran with one of its legs, similar to this or something like it." This is the wording of the narration from Al-Rudhabari, and in the narration of Abu Abdullah, the Prophet ﷺ said, "You have made your companion or your slain one deserve it by the oaths of fifty of you." They said, "We have never witnessed such a thing." He said, "So can the Jews be exonerated by the oaths of fifty of them?" And he mentioned the rest in its meaning.
