Hadith 28:589

Waki' narrated to us, he said: Sufyan narrated to us, from Abu al-Zinad, from al-Muraqqa' ibn 'Abd Allah ibn Sayfi, from Hanzala al-Katib, he said: We went on a military expedition with the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, and we passed by a killed woman, and the people had gathered around her. He said: So they cleared the way for him. He said: "This one was not fighting among those who fight." Then he said to a man: "Go to Khalid ibn al-Walid and say to him: 'The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, commands you, saying: Do not kill offspring, nor a hired laborer.'"

حدثنا وكيع قال ثنا سفيان عن أبي الزناد عن المرقع بن عبد الله بن صيفي عن حنظلة الكاتب قال غزونا مع النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم فمررنا بامرأة مقتولة وقد اجتمع عليها الناس قال فأفرجوا له فقال ما كانت هذه تقاتل فيمن يقاتل ثم قال لرجل انطلق إلى خالد بن الوليد فقل له إن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يأمرك يقول لا تقتلن ذرية ولا عسيفا
