حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ عَوْنٍ قَالَ
كَتَبْتُ إِلَى نَافِعٍ أَسْأَلُهُ: مَا أَقْعَدَ ابْنَ عُمَرَ عَنِ الْغَزْوِ ؟ وَعَنِ الْقَوْمِ إِذَا غَزَوْا بِمَا يَدْعُونَ الْعَدُوَّ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُقَاتِلُوهُمْ ؟ وَهَلْ يَحْمِلُ الرَّجُلُ إِذَا كَانَ فِي الْكَتِيبَةِ بِغَيْرِ إِذْنِ إِمَامِهِ ؟ فَكَتَبَ إِلَيَّ: إِنَّ ابْنَ عُمَرَ قَدْ كَانَ يَغْزُو وَلَدُهُ وَيَحْمِلُ عَلَى الظَّهْرِ، وَكَانَ يَقُولُ: إِنَّ أَفْضَلَ الْعَمَلِ بَعْدَ الصَّلَاةِ الْجِهَادُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ تَعَالَى، وَمَا أَقْعَدَ ابْنَ عُمَرَ، عَنِ الْغَزْوِ إِلَّا وَصَايَا لِعُمَرَ، وَصِبْيَانٌ صِغَارٌ وَضَيْعَةٌ كَثِيرَةٌ. وَقَدْ أَغَارَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى بَنِي الْمُصْطَلِقِ وَهُمْ غَارُّونَ يَسْقُونَ عَلَى نَعَمِهِمْ، فَقَتَلَ مُقَاتِلَتَهُمْ وَسَبَى سَبَايَاهُمْ وَأَصَابَ جُوَيْرِيَةَ بِنْتَ الْحَارِثِ قَالَ: فَحَدَّثَنِي بِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ ابْنُ عُمَرَ، وَكَانَ فِي ذَلِكَ الْجَيْشِ. وَإِنَّمَا كَانُوا يُدْعَوْنَ فِي أَوَّلِ الْإِسْلَامِ. وَأَمَّا الرَّجُلُ فَلَا يَحْمِلُ عَلَى الْكَتِيبَةِ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِ إِمَامِهِ.

Chain of narrators
- Yazīd
- Ibn ʿAwn
✧ I wrote to Nafi‘ asking him: What kept Ibn ‘Umar from going on military expeditions? And about the people when they raid, how do they call the enemy before fighting them? And may a man charge when he is in the battalion without the permission of his commander? He wrote back to me: Ibn ‘Umar used to send his sons on expeditions and provide mounts. He used to say: The best deed after prayer is jihad in the cause of Allah Almighty. Nothing kept Ibn ‘Umar from going on expeditions except the instructions of ‘Umar, young children, and many properties. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ raided Banu al-Mustaliq while they were unaware, watering their camels. He killed their fighters and took their women and children captive, and captured Juwayriyah bt. al-Harith. He said: Ibn ‘Umar narrated this hadith to me, and he was in that army. They used to be called only in the early days of Islam. As for the man, he does not charge the battalion except with the permission of his commander.
