( أَخْبَرَنَا ) أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، ثَنَا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ: مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، ثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْجَبَّارِ، ثَنَا يُونُسُ بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ إِسْحَاقَ، حَدَّثَنِي طَلْحَةُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ الصِّدِّيقِ قَالَ:
كَانَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ ؓ يَأْمُرُ أُمَرَاءَهُ حِينَ كَانَ يَبْعَثُهُمْ فِي الرِّدَّةِ إِذَا غَشِيتُمْ دَارًا، فَإِنْ سَمِعْتُمْ بِهَا أَذَانًا بِالصَّلَاةِ فَكُفُّوا حَتَّى تَسْأَلُوهُمْ مَاذَا نَقَمُوا ؟ فَإِنْ لَمْ تَسْمَعُوا أَذَانًا فَشُنُّوهَا غَارَةً، وَاقْتُلُوا وَحَرِّقُوا، وَانْهَكُوا فِي الْقَتْلِ وَالْجِرَاحِ، لَا يُرَى بِكُمْ وَهْنٌ لِمَوْتِ نَبِيِّكُمْ

Abū Bakr (may God be pleased with him) used to command his commanders when he sent them out during the apostasy (ridda): "When you come upon a house and you hear the call to prayer in it, hold back until you ask them what they resent. If you do not hear the call to prayer, then launch a raid upon it, kill and burn, and be severe in killing and wounding, so that no weakness is seen in you because of the death of your Prophet."
