Sahih al-Bukhari 6643
Narrated Sahl bin Abi Hathma:
(a man from the Ansar) that a number of people from his tribe went to Khaibar and dispersed, and
then they found one of them murdered. They said to the people with whom the corpse had been found,
"You have killed our companion!" Those people said, "Neither have we killed him, nor do we know
his killer." The bereaved group went to the Prophet (ﷺ) and said, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! We went to Khaibar
and found one of us murdered." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Let the older among you come forward and
speak." Then the Prophet (ﷺ) said, to them, "Bring your proof against the killer." They said "We have no
proof." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Then they (the defendants) will take an oath." They said, "We do not accept
the oaths of the Jews." Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) did not like that the Blood-money of the killed one be lost
without compensation, so he paid one-hundred camels out of the camels of Zakat (to the relatives of
the deceased) as Diya (Blood-money).
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ، حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ، عَنْ بُشَيْرِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، زَعَمَ أَنَّ رَجُلاً، مِنَ الأَنْصَارِ يُقَالُ لَهُ سَهْلُ بْنُ أَبِي حَثْمَةَ أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ نَفَرًا مِنْ قَوْمِهِ انْطَلَقُوا إِلَى خَيْبَرَ فَتَفَرَّقُوا فِيهَا، وَوَجَدُوا أَحَدَهُمْ قَتِيلاً، وَقَالُوا لِلَّذِي وُجِدَ فِيهِمْ قَتَلْتُمْ صَاحِبَنَا. قَالُوا مَا قَتَلْنَا وَلاَ عَلِمْنَا قَاتِلاً. فَانْطَلَقُوا إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ انْطَلَقْنَا إِلَى خَيْبَرَ فَوَجَدْنَا أَحَدَنَا قَتِيلاً. فَقَالَ " الْكُبْرَ الْكُبْرَ ". فَقَالَ لَهُمْ " تَأْتُونَ بِالْبَيِّنَةِ عَلَى مَنْ قَتَلَهُ ". قَالُوا مَا لَنَا بَيِّنَةٌ. قَالَ " فَيَحْلِفُونَ ". قَالُوا لاَ نَرْضَى بِأَيْمَانِ الْيَهُودِ. فَكَرِهَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَنْ يُبْطِلَ دَمَهُ، فَوَدَاهُ مِائَةً مِنْ إِبِلِ الصَّدَقَةِ.
