حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ وَسَعِيدُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ عَنْ هِلَالٍ عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ ثَقِيفٍ عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ جُهَيْنَةَ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَعَلَّکُمْ تُقَاتِلُونَ قَوْمًا فَتَظْهَرُونَ عَلَيْهِمْ فَيَتَّقُونَکُمْ بِأَمْوَالِهِمْ دُونَ أَنْفُسِهِمْ وَأَبْنَائِهِمْ قَالَ سَعِيدٌ فِي حَدِيثِهِ فَيُصَالِحُونَکُمْ عَلَی صُلْحٍ ثُمَّ اتَّفَقَا فَلَا تُصِيبُوا مِنْهُمْ شَيْئًا فَوْقَ ذَلِکَ فَإِنَّهُ لَا يَصْلُحُ لَکُمْ
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 3051
Narrated A man of Juhaynah: The Prophet ﷺ said: Probably you will fight with a people, you will dominate them, and they will save themselves and their children by their property. The version of Saeed has You will then conclude peace with them. The agreed version goes: Then do no take anything from them more than that, for it is not proper for you.
