Bukayr--Muhammad b. Ishaq--Husayn b. 'Abdallah b. 'Ubaydallah b. 'Abbas--'Ikrimah-Ibn 'Abbas, who said: When the Messenger of God encamped at Marr al-Zahran, al-'Abbas b. 'Abd al-Muttalib said, the Messenger of God having departed from Medina: "Woe to Quraysh! If the Messenger of God surprises them in their territory and enters Mecca by force, it means the destruction of Quraysh forever." So he seated himself on the white mule of the Messenger of God and said, "I will go out to al-Arak; perhaps I shall see a firewood gleaner, or someone bringing milk, or someone coming in who will enter Mecca and inform them where the Messenger of God is, so that they will go to him and ask him for a promise of safety."}}

Ishaq--'Abdallah b. Abi Najih: When the Prophet sent his army in divisions from Dhu Tuwa, he commanded al-Zubayr, who was in charge of the left wing, to make his entry with some of the forces by way of Kuda. He commanded Sa'd b. Ubadah to make his entry with some of the forces by way of Kada'. Some scholars assert that when Sa'd was sent out, he said as he made his entry, "Today is the day of battle) today the sacred territory is deemed profane." Hearing this, one of the Emigrants said: "Messenger of God, hear what Sa'd b. 'Ubadah has said! We fear that he may assault Quraysh." The Messenger of God said to 'Ali b. Abi Talib: "Overtake him, and take the banner. You be the one who takes it in!"}}

Then he apostatized [rejected Islam].|See Also Ishaq:550}}

Among them was 'Abdallah b. Sa'd b. Abi Sari b. Hubayb b. Jadhimah b. Nasr b. Malik b. Hisl b. 'Amir b. Lu'ayy. The Messenger of God ordered that he should be killed only because he had become a Muslim and then had reverted to being a polytheist. He fled to 'Uthman, who was his foster-brother, and 'Uthman hid him. 'Uthman later brought him to the Messenger of God after the people of Mecca had become calm. He asked the Messenger of God to grant him a promise of safety. The Messenger of God is said to have remained silent for a long time and then to have said yes. After 'Uthman had taken him away, the Messenger of God said to his companions who were around him, "By God, I kept silent so that one of you might go up to him and cut off his head!" One of the Anger said, "Why didn't you give me a signal, Messenger of God? " He replied, "A prophet does not kill by making signs."<br>
+Also among them was 'Abdallah b. Khatal, a member of the Banu Taym b. Ghalib. The Messenger of God ordered that he should be killed only for the following reason: He was a Muslim, and the Messenger of God had sent him to collect alms, sending with him one of the Ansar. With him went a mawla of his, also a Muslim, to serve him. He halted at a resting place and commanded the mawla to slaughter him a goat and make him a meal; then he went to sleep. When he woke up, the mawla had done nothing for him; so he attacked him and killed him. Then he reverted to being a polytheist. He had two singing girls, Fartana and another with her. The two used to sing satire about the Messenger of God; so the latter commanded that the two of them should be killed along with him.<br>
+Also among them was al-Huwayrith b. Nuqaydh b. Wahb b. 'Abd b. Qusayy. He was one of the men who used to molest the Messenger of God in Mecca.<br>
+Also among them was Miqyas b. Subabah. The Messenger of God commanded that he should be killed only because he had killed the member of the Ansar who had killed his brother by mistake and had then returned to Quraysh as a renegade.<br>
+Also among them were 'Ikrimah b. Abi Jahl and Sarah, a mawlah of one of the sons of 'Abd al-Muttalib. She was one of those who used to molest the Messenger of God in Mecca. 'Ikrimah b. Abi Jahl fled to Yemen. His wife, Umm Hakim bt. al-Harith b. Hisham, became a Muslim. She asked the Messenger of God to grant `Ikrimah a promise of safety, and he did so. She set out to find him and then brought him to the Messenger of God. `Ikrimah, as people relate, used to say that what brought him back to Islam after his departure for Yemen was-in his own words: I was about to set sail for Ethiopia. When I came to board the ship, its captain said, "Servant of God, do not board my ship until you declare God to be one and repudiate any peers to Him; for I fear that if you do not do so, we shall perish in it." So I asked, "Does no one board until he declares God to be one and repudiates all others?" "Yes," he said, "no one boards until he clears himself." So I asked: Why then should I depart from Muhammad? By God, this is the very message he brought to us: that our God on the sea is [the same as] our God on land! At that moment I came to know Islam, and it entered into my heart.<br>
+'Abdallah b. Khalal was killed by Said b. Hurayth al-Makhzumi and Abu Barzah al-Aslami: the two shared in his blood. Miqyas b. Subabah was killed by Numaylah b. 'Abdallah, a man of his own clan. The sister of Miqyas said:
+:By my life, Numaylah shamed his clan
+:and distressed winter guests by [killing] Miqyas.
+:How excellent it was for one to see a man like Miqyas
+:in times when no food was prepared even for women in childbirth!<br>
+As for Ibn Khatal's two singing girls, one was killed and the other fled. The Messenger of God later was asked to grant her a promise of safety, and he did so. [As for Sarah, he was asked to grant her a promise of safety, and he did so.] She lived until someone in the time of 'Umar b. al-Khattab caused his horse to trample her at al-Abtah and killed her. Al-Huwayrith b. Nuqaydh was killed by 'Ali b. Abi Talib.<br>
+According to al-Waqidi: The Messenger of God commanded that six men and four women should be killed. Of the men, [al-Waqidi] mentioned those whom Ibn Ishaq named. The women he mentioned were Hind bt. 'Utbah b. Rabi'ah, who became a Muslim and swore allegiance; Sarah, the mawlah of 'Amr b. Hashim b. 'Abd al-Muttalib b. 'Abd Manaf, who was killed on that day; Quraybah, who was killed on that day; and Fartana, who lived until the caliphate of 'Uthman.<br>
+According to Ibn Humayd--Salamah--Ibn Ishaq--'Umar b. Musa b. al-Wajih--Qatadah al-Sadusi: Having halted by the door of the Ka'bah, the Messenger of God stood up and said: "There is no god but God alone; He has no partner. He has fulfilled His promise and helped His servant. He alone has put to flight the parties who leagued together. Behold, every alleged claim of hereditary privilege, or blood, or wealth is abolished, except the custodianship of the Ka'bah and the right of supplying water to pilgrims. Behold, the one slain by an error that is like intention, [by] whip or staff-for both cases the blood money shall be made rigorous: [a hundred camels], forty of them with their foals in their wombs. People of Quraysh, God has taken from you the haughtiness of the Time of Ignorance and its pride in ancestors. Mankind is from Adam, and Adam was created from dust." Then the Messenger of God recited: "O mankind, We have created you male and female, and made you nations and tribes, that you may know one another. Surely the noblest among you in the sight of God is the most god-fearing of you"-to the end of the verse. "People of Quraysh and people. of Mecca, what do you think I intend to do with you?" "Good," they said, "[for you are] a generous fellow tribesman and the son of a generous fellow tribesman!" Then he said, "Go, for you are 'those whose bonds have been loosed.'" Thus the Messenger of God emancipated them, although God had enabled him to take their persons by force and they were his booty. Therefore the people of Mecca are known as al-Tulaqa' (Those Whose Bonds Have Been Loosed).}}
-{{Quote|{{Tabari|8|p. 179}}|Abdallah bin Sa'd fled to Uthman, his brother, who after hiding him, finally surrendered him to the Prophet. Uthman asked for clemency. Muhammad did not respond, remaining silent for a long time. Muhammad explained, ‘By Allah, I kept silent so that one of you might go up to him and cut off his head!' One of the Ansar said, ‘Why didn't you give me a sign?' Allah's Apostle replied, ‘A prophet does not kill by pointing.'}}
