Sahih Muslim

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَکْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُسْهِرٍ وَوَکِيعٌ عَنْ زَکَرِيَّائَ عَنْ الشَّعْبِيِّ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُطِيعٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ يَوْمَ فَتْحِ مَکَّةَ لَا يُقْتَلُ قُرَشِيٌّ صَبْرًا بَعْدَ هَذَا الْيَوْمِ إِلَی يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ

This tradition has been narrated by Ibn Abu Najah through a different chain of transmitters up to the word: Zahaqa, (This version) does not contain the second verse and substitutes Sanam for Nusub (both the words mean idol or image that is worshipped).

أَبِيهِ ← عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مُطِيعٍ، ← الشَّعْبِيِّ ← زَکَرِيَّائُ ← عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُسْهِرٍ وَوَکِيعٌ ← أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ

حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ نُمَيْرٍ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي حَدَّثَنَا زَکَرِيَّائُ بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ وَزَادَ قَالَ وَلَمْ يَکُنْ أَسْلَمَ أَحَدٌ مِنْ عُصَاةِ قُرَيْشٍ غَيْرَ مُطِيعٍ کَانَ اسْمُهُ الْعَاصِي فَسَمَّاهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مُطِيعًا

It has been narrated on the authority of Abdullah b. Muti' who heard from his father and said: I heard the Prophet ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) say on the day of the Conquest of Mecca: No Quraishite will be killed hound hand and foot from this day until the Day of judgment.

زَکَرِيَّائُ ← أَبِي ← ابْنُ نُمَيْرٍ،

حَدَّثَنِي عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ الْعَنْبَرِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَقَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ الْبَرَائَ بْنَ عَازِبٍ يَقُولُا کَتَبَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ الصُّلْحَ بَيْنَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَبَيْنَ الْمُشْرِکِينَ يَوْمَ الْحُدَيْبِيَةِ فَکَتَبَ هَذَا مَا کَاتَبَ عَلَيْهِ مُحَمَّدٌ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ فَقَالُوا لَا تَکْتُبْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ فَلَوْ نَعْلَمُ أَنَّکَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ لَمْ نُقَاتِلْکَ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِعَلِيٍّ امْحُهُ فَقَالَ مَا أَنَا بِالَّذِي أَمْحَاهُ فَمَحَاهُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِيَدِهِ قَالَ وَکَانَ فِيمَا اشْتَرَطُوا أَنْ يَدْخُلُوا مَکَّةَ فَيُقِيمُوا بِهَا ثَلَاثًا وَلَا يَدْخُلُهَا بِسِلَاحٍ إِلَّا جُلُبَّانَ السِّلَاحِ قُلْتُ لِأَبِي إِسْحَقَ وَمَا جُلُبَّانُ السِّلَاحِ قَالَ الْقِرَابُ وَمَا فِيهِ

The same tradition has been narrated on the authority of Zakriyya through the same chain of transmitters with the following addition: No rebellious Quraishite with al-Asi as his name embraced Islam that day except Muti. His name-was al-Asi, but the Messenger of Allah (way peace be upon him) changed his name to Muti.

الْبَرَائَ بْنَ عَازِبٍ ← أَبِي إِسْحَقَ ← شُعْبَةُ ← أَبِي ← عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ الْعَنْبَرِيُّ،

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّی وَابْنُ بَشَّارٍ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَقَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ الْبَرَائَ بْنَ عَازِبٍ يَقُولُا لَمَّا صَالَحَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَهْلَ الْحُدَيْبِيَةِ کَتَبَ عَلِيٌّ کِتَابًا بَيْنَهُمْ قَالَ فَکَتَبَ مُحَمَّدٌ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ثُمَّ ذَکَرَ بِنَحْوِ حَدِيثِ مُعَاذٍ غَيْرَ أَنَّهُ لَمْ يَذْکُرْ فِي الْحَدِيثِ هَذَا مَا کَاتَبَ عَلَيْهِ

It has been narrated on the authority of al-Bara' b. 'Azib who said: 'Ali b. Abu Talib penned the treaty between the Prophet ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) and the polytheists on the Day of Hudaibiya. He wrote: This is what Muhammad, the Messenger of Allah, has settled. They (the polytheists) said: Do not write words the Messenger of Allah . If we knew that you were the Messenger of Allah, we would not fight against you. The Prophet ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) said to 'Ali: Strike out these words. He (Ali) said: I am not going to strike them out. So the Prophet ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) struck them out with his own hand. The narrator said that the conditions upon which the two sides had agreed included that the Muslims would enter Mecca (next year) and would stay there for three days, and that they would not enter bearing arms except in their sheaths or bolsters.

الْبَرَائَ بْنَ عَازِبٍ ← أَبِي إِسْحَقَ ← شُعْبَةُ ← مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ ← مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّی وَابْنُ بَشَّارٍ

حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الْحَنْظَلِيُّ وَأَحْمَدُ بْنُ جَنَابٍ الْمِصِّيصِيُّ جَمِيعًا عَنْ عِيسَی بْنِ يُونُسَ وَاللَّفْظُ لِإِسْحَقَ أَخْبَرَنَا عِيسَی بْنُ يُونُسَ أَخْبَرَنَا زَکَرِيَّائُ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَقَ عَنْ الْبَرَائِ قَالَ لَمَّا أُحْصِرَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عِنْدَ الْبَيْتِ صَالَحَهُ أَهْلُ مَکَّةَ عَلَی أَنْ يَدْخُلَهَا فَيُقِيمَ بِهَا ثَلَاثًا وَلَا يَدْخُلَهَا إِلَّا بِجُلُبَّانِ السِّلَاحِ السَّيْفِ وَقِرَابِهِ وَلَا يَخْرُجَ بِأَحَدٍ مَعَهُ مِنْ أَهْلِهَا وَلَا يَمْنَعَ أَحَدًا يَمْکُثُ بِهَا مِمَّنْ کَانَ مَعَهُ قَالَ لِعَلِيٍّ اکْتُبْ الشَّرْطَ بَيْنَنَا بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ هَذَا مَا قَاضَی عَلَيْهِ مُحَمَّدٌ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ لَهُ الْمُشْرِکُونَ لَوْ نَعْلَمُ أَنَّکَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ تَابَعْنَاکَ وَلَکِنْ اکْتُبْ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ فَأَمَرَ عَلِيًّا أَنْ يَمْحَاهَا فَقَالَ عَلِيٌّ لَا وَاللَّهِ لَا أَمْحَاهَا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَرِنِي مَکَانَهَا فَأَرَاهُ مَکَانَهَا فَمَحَاهَا وَکَتَبَ ابْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ فَأَقَامَ بِهَا ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ فَلَمَّا أَنْ کَانَ يَوْمُ الثَّالِثِ قَالُوا لِعَلِيٍّ هَذَا آخِرُ يَوْمٍ مِنْ شَرْطِ صَاحِبِکَ فَأْمُرْهُ فَلْيَخْرُجْ فَأَخْبَرَهُ بِذَلِکَ فَقَالَ نَعَمْ فَخَرَجَ و قَالَ ابْنُ جَنَابٍ فِي رِوَايَتِهِ مَکَانَ تَابَعْنَاکَ بَايَعْنَاکَ

It has been narrated on the authority of Abu Ishaq, who heard Bars' b. Azib say: When the Messenger of Allah ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) made peace with the people of Hudaibiya, 'Ali drew up the agreement between them, and so he wrote: Muhammad, the Messenger of Allah. (This is followed by the same wording as we have in the previous tradition except the omission of the words: This is what he has settled.)

الْبَرَائِ ← أَبِي إِسْحَقَ ← زَکَرِيَّائُ ← عِيسَى بْنُ يُونُسَ ← عِيسَی بْنِ يُونُسَ وَاللَّفْظُ لِإِسْحَقَ ← أَحْمَدُ بْنُ جَنَابٍ الْمِصِّيصِيُّ جَمِيعًا ← إِسْحَقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الْحَنْظَلِيُّ

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَکْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ ثَابِتٍ عَنْ أَنَسٍ أَنَّ قُرَيْشًا صَالَحُوا النَّبِيَّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِيهِمْ سُهَيْلُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِعَلِيٍّ اکْتُبْ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ قَالَ سُهَيْلٌ أَمَّا بِاسْمِ اللَّهِ فَمَا نَدْرِي مَا بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ وَلَکِنْ اکْتُبْ مَا نَعْرِفُ بِاسْمِکَ اللَّهُمَّ فَقَالَ اکْتُبْ مِنْ مُحَمَّدٍ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ قَالُوا لَوْ عَلِمْنَا أَنَّکَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ لَاتَّبَعْنَاکَ وَلَکِنْ اکْتُبْ اسْمَکَ وَاسْمَ أَبِيکَ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ اکْتُبْ مِنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ فَاشْتَرَطُوا عَلَی النَّبِيِّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ مَنْ جَائَ مِنْکُمْ لَمْ نَرُدَّهُ عَلَيْکُمْ وَمَنْ جَائَکُمْ مِنَّا رَدَدْتُمُوهُ عَلَيْنَا فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَنَکْتُبُ هَذَا قَالَ نَعَمْ إِنَّهُ مَنْ ذَهَبَ مِنَّا إِلَيْهِمْ فَأَبْعَدَهُ اللَّهُ وَمَنْ جَائَنَا مِنْهُمْ سَيَجْعَلُ اللَّهُ لَهُ فَرَجًا وَمَخْرَجًا

It has been narrated on the authority of Bara' who said: When the Prophet ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) was checked from going to the Ka'ba, the people of Mecca made peace with him'on the condition that he would (be allowed to) enter Mecca (next year) and stay there for three days, that he would not enter (the city) except with swords in their sheaths and arms encased in their covers, that he would not take eway with him anyone from its dwellers, nor would he prevent anyone from those with him to stay on in Mecca (if he so desired). He said to 'Ali: Write down the terms settled between us. (So 'Ali wrote): In the name of Allah, most Gracious and most Merciful. This is what Muhammad, the Messenger of Allah, has settled (with the Meccans), The polytheists said to him: If we knew that thou art the Messenger of of Allah, we would follow you. But write: Muhammad b. 'Abdullah. So he told 'Ali to strike out these words. 'Ali said: No, by Allah, I will not strike them out. The Messenger of Allah (may Peace be upon him) said: Show me their place (on the parchment). So he ('Ali) showed him their place and he (the Holy Prophet) struck them out; and 'Ali wrote: Ibn 'Abdullah. (According to the terms of the treaty, next year) the Prophet ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) stayed there for three days When it was the third day, they said to 'Ali: This is the last day according to the terms of your companion. So tell him to leave. 'Ali informed the Prophet ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) accordingly. He said: Yes, and left (the city). Ibn Janab in his version of the tradition used: we would swear allegiance to you instead of we would follow you .

It has been narrated on the authority of Anas that the Quraish made peace with the Prophet ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ). Among them was Suhail b. Amr. The Prophet ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) said to 'Ali: Write In the name of Allah, most Gracious and most Merciful. Suhail said: As for Bismillah, we do not know what is meant by Bismillah-ir-Rahman-ir-Rahim (In the name of Allah most Gracious and most Merciful). But write what we understand, i. e. Bi ismika allahumma (in thy name. O Allah). Then, the Prophet ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) said: Write: From Muhammad, the Messenger of Allah. They said: If we knew that thou welt the Messenger of Allah, we would follow you. Therefore, write your name and the name of your father. So the Prophet ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) said: Write From Muhammad b. 'Abdullah. They laid the condition on the Prophet ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) that anyone who joined them from the Muslims, the Meccans would not return him, and anyone who joined you (the Muslims) from them, you would send him back to them. The Companions said: Messenger of Allah, should we write this? He said: Yes. One who goes away from us to join them-may Allah keep him away! and one who comes to join us from them (and is sent back) Allah will provide him relief and a way of escape.

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو کُرَيْبٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلَائِ وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ عَنْ شَقِيقٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ سَهْلَ بْنَ حُنَيْفٍ يَقُولُا بِصِفِّينَ أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ اتَّهِمُوا رَأْيَکُمْ وَاللَّهِ لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُنِي يَوْمَ أَبِي جَنْدَلٍ وَلَوْ أَنِّي أَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ أَرُدَّ أَمْرَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَرَدَدْتُهُ وَاللَّهِ مَا وَضَعْنَا سُيُوفَنَا عَلَی عَوَاتِقِنَا إِلَی أَمْرٍ قَطُّ إِلَّا أَسْهَلْنَ بِنَا إِلَی أَمْرٍ نَعْرِفُهُ إِلَّا أَمْرَکُمْ هَذَا لَمْ يَذْکُرْ ابْنُ نُمَيْرٍ إِلَی أَمْرٍ قَطُّ

It has been narrated on the authority of Abu Wa'il who said: Sahal b. Hunaif stood up on the Day of Siffin and said: O ye people, blame yourselves (for want of discretion) ; we were with the Messenger of Allah ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) on the Day of Hudaibiya. If we had thought it fit to fight, we could fight. This was in the truce between the Messenger of Allah ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) and the polytheists. Umar b. Khattab came, approached the Messenger of Allah ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) and said: Messenger of Allah, aren't we fighting for truth and they for falsehood? He replied: By all means. He asked: Are not those killed from our side in Paradise and those killed. from their side in the Fire? He replied: Yes. He said: Then why should we put a blot upon our religion and return, while Allah has not decided the issue between them and ourselves? He said: Son of Khattab, I am the Messenger of Allah. Allah will never ruin me. (The narrator said): Umar went away, but he could not contain himself with rage. So he approached Abu Bakr and said: 'Abu Bakr, aren't we fighting for truth and they for falsehood? He replied: Yes. He asked: Aren't those killed from our side in Paradise and those killed from their side in the Fire? He replied: Why not? He (then) said: Why should we then disgrace our religion and return while God has not yet decided the issue between them and ourselves? Abu Bakr said: Son of Khattab, verily, he is the Messenger of Allah, and Allah will never ruin him. (The narrator continued): At this (a Sura of) the Qur'an (giving glad tidings of the victory) was revealed to the Messenger of Allah ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ). He sent for Umar and made him read it. He asked: Is (this truce) a victory? He (the Messenger of Allah) replied: Yes. At this Umar was pleased, and returned.

شَقِيقٍ، ← الْاَعْمَشِ ← أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ ← مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ، ← أَبُو کُرَيْبٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلائِ

و حَدَّثَنَاه عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ وَإِسْحَقُ جَمِيعًا عَنْ جَرِيرٍ ح و حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو سَعِيدٍ الْأَشَجُّ حَدَّثَنَا وَکِيعٌ کِلَاهُمَا عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ وَفِي حَدِيثِهِمَا إِلَی أَمْرٍ يُفْظِعُنَا

It has been narrated on the authority of Shaqiq who said: I heard Sahl b. Hunaif say at Siffin: O ye people, find fault with your (own) discretion. By Allah, on the Day of Abu Jandal (i. e. the day of Hudaibiya), I thought to myself that, if I could, I would reverse the order of the Messenger of Allah ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) (the terms of the truce being unpalatable). By Allah, we have never hung our swords on our shoulders in any situation whatsoever except when they made easy for us to realise the goal envisaged by us, but this battle of yours (seems to be an exception). Ibn Numair (in his version) did not mention the words: In any situation whatsoever

الْاَعْمَشِ ← وَكِيعٌ، كِلَاهُمَا ← أَبُو سَعِيدٍ الْاَشَجُّ ← و، ← جَرِيرٌ ← عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ وَإِسْحَقُ جَمِيعًا ← و،

The same tradition has been narrated through a different chain of transmitters on the authority of A'mash. This version contains the words: Ila amrin yofzi'una instead of Ila amrin na'rifuhu.

أَبِي وَائِلٍ، ← أَبِي حَصِينٍ، ← مَالِکُ بْنُ مِغْوَلٍ ← أَبُو أُسَامَةَ ← إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الْجَوْهَرِيُّ ← و،

It has been narrated through a different chain of transmitters on the authority of Abu Wa'il who said: I heard Sahl b. Hunaif say at Siffin: Blame (the hollowness) of your views about your religion. I thought to myself on the day of Abu Jandal that if I could turn down the order of the Messenger of Allah ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ), I would. The situation was so difficult that if we mended it at one place, it was rent at another.

قَتَادَةَ ← سَعِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي عَرُوبَةَ، ← خَالِدُ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ ← نَصْرُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ الْجَهْضَمِيُّ ← و،

و حَدَّثَنَا عَاصِمُ بْنُ النَّضْرِ التَّيْمِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا مُعْتَمِرٌ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبِي حَدَّثَنَا قَتَادَةُ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِکٍ ح و حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ الْمُثَنَّی حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ حَدَّثَنَا هَمَّامٌ ح و حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ بْنُ حُمَيْدٍ حَدَّثَنَا يُونُسُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ حَدَّثَنَا شَيْبَانُ جَمِيعًا عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ أَنَسٍ نَحْوَ حَدِيثِ ابْنِ أَبِي عَرُوبَةَ
