حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْوَلِيدِ الطَّيَالِسِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ الْمُرَقَّعِ بْنِ صَيْفِيِّ بْنِ رَبَاحٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي عَنْ جَدِّهِ رَبَاحِ بْنِ رَبِيعٍ قَالَ کُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي غَزْوَةٍ فَرَأَی النَّاسَ مُجْتَمِعِينَ عَلَی شَيْئٍ فَبَعَثَ رَجُلًا فَقَالَ انْظُرْ عَلَامَ اجْتَمَعَ هَؤُلَائِ فَجَائَ فَقَالَ عَلَی امْرَأَةٍ قَتِيلٍ فَقَالَ مَا کَانَتْ هَذِهِ لِتُقَاتِلَ قَالَ وَعَلَی الْمُقَدِّمَةِ خَالِدُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ فَبَعَثَ رَجُلًا فَقَالَ قُلْ لِخَالِدٍ لَا يَقْتُلَنَّ امْرَأَةً وَلَا عَسِيفًا
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 2669
Narrated Rabah ibn Rabi: 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.
