( أَخْبَرَنَا ) أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، وَأَبُو سَعِيدِ بْنُ أَبِي عَمْرٍو، قَالَا: ثَنَا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ: مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، أَنْبَأَ الرَّبِيعُ، قَالَ: قَالَ الشَّافِعِيُّ، قَالَ أَبُو يُوسُفَ: حَدَّثَنَا بَعْضُ أَشْيَاخِنَا، عَنْ عُبَادَةَ بْنِ نُسَيٍّ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ غَنْمٍ:
أَنَّهُ قِيلَ لِمُعَاذِ بْنِ جَبَلٍ ؓ: إِنَّ الرُّومَ يَأْخُذُونَ مَا حُسِرَ مِنْ خَيْلِنَا فَيَسْتَعْجِلُونَهَا، وَيُقَاتِلُونَ عَلَيْهَا، أَفَنَعْقِرُ مَا حُسِرَ مِنْ خَيْلِنَا ؟ فَقَالَ: لَا. لَيْسُوا بِأَهْلٍ أَنْ يَنْتَقِصُوا مِنْكُمْ، إِنَّمَا هُمْ غَدًا رَقِيقُكُمْ وَأَهْلُ ذِمَّتِكُمْ

It was said to Muʿādh b. Jabal (may God be pleased with him): "The Romans take those of our horses that have become exhausted, and they put them to use and fight on them. Should we hamstring our horses that have become exhausted?" He said: "No. They are not fit to diminish anything from you. Tomorrow they will only be your slaves and the people under your protection (ahl dhimmatikum)."
