حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، قَالَ: نَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ، قَالَ: نَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ بْنِ مَرْثَدٍ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ؓ قَالَ:

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِذَا بَعَثَ أَمِيرًا أَوْ أَمَّرَ أَمِيرًا عَلَى سَرِيَّةٍ أَوْ جَيْشٍ أَمَرَهُ وَأَوْصَاهُ فِي خَاصَّتِهِ بِتَقْوَى اللهِ وَبِمَنْ مَعَهُ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ خَيْرًا، ثُمَّ قَالَ: اغْزُوا بِاسْمِ اللهِ وَفِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ، قَاتِلُوا مَنْ كَفَرَ بِاللهِ اغْزُوا فَلَا تَغُلُّوا وَلَا تَغْدِرُوا، وَلَا تُمَثِّلُوا وَلَا تَقْتُلُوا وَلِيدًا، وَإِذَا لَقِيتَ عَدُوَّكَ مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ فَادْعُهُمْ إِلَّا ثَلَاثَ خِصَالٍ أَوْ خِلَالٍ، فَأَيَّتُهُمْ مَا أَجَابُوكَ إِلَيْهَا فَاقْبَلْ مِنْهُمْ وَكُفَّ عَنْهُمْ، ادْعُهُمْ إِلَى الْإِسْلَامِ فَإِنْ أَجَابُوا فَاقْبَلْ مِنْهُمْ وَكُفَّ عَنْهُمْ، ثُمَّ ادْعُهُمْ إِلَى أَنْ يُهَاجِرُوا مِنْ دَارِهِمْ إِلَى دَارِ الْمُهَاجِرِينَ، وَأَخْبِرْهُمْ إِنْ فَعَلُوا ذَلِكَ أَنَّ لَهُمْ مَا لِلْمُهَاجِرِينَ وَعَلَيْهِمْ مَا عَلَى الْمُهَاجِرِينَ، فَإِنْ أَبَوْا أَنْ يَبْرَحُوا مِنْ دَارِهِمْ فَأَخْبِرْهُمْ أَنَّهُمْ يَكُونُونَ كَأَعْرَابِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ يَجْرِي عَلَيْهِمْ حُكْمُ اللهِ الَّذِي يَجْرِي عَلَى الْمُسْلِمِينَ، لَا يَكُونُ لَهُمْ فِي الْفَيْءِ وَلَا فِي الْغَنِيمَةِ شَيْءٌ، فَإِنْ أَبَوْا فَاسْأَلْهُمُ الْجِزْيَةَ، فَإِنْ فَعَلُوا فَاقْبَلْ مِنْهُمْ وَخَلِّ عَنْهُمْ، فَإِنْ أَبَوْا فَقَاتِلْهُمْ، وَإِذَا حَاصَرْتَ أَهْلَ حِصْنٍ فَإِنْ أَرَادُوكَ أَنْ تَجْعَلَ لَهُمْ ذِمَّةَ اللهِ وَذِمَّةَ رَسُولِهِ، فَلَا تَجْعَلْ لَهُمْ ذِمَّةَ اللهِ وَذِمَّةَ رَسُولِهِ، وَلَكِنِ اجْعَلْ لَهُمْ ذِمَّتَكَ وَذِمَّةَ أَبِيكَ وَذِمَمَ أَصْحَابِكَ، فَإِنَّكُمْ إِنْ تُخْفِرُوا ذِمَمَكُمْ وَذِمَمَ أَصْحَابِكُمْ أَهْوَنُ مِنْ أَنْ تُخْفِرُوا ذِمَّةَ اللهِ وَذِمَّةَ رَسُولِهِ ﷺ وَإِذَا حَاصَرْتَ أَهْلَ حِصْنٍ فَأَرَادُوكَ أَنْ تُنْزِلَهُمْ عَلَى حُكْمِ اللهِ فَلَا تُنْزِلْهُمْ عَلَى حُكْمِ اللهِ، وَلَكِنْ أَنْزِلْهُمْ عَلَى حُكْمِكَ ; فَإِنَّكَ لَا تَدْرِي تُصِيبُ حُكْمَ اللهِ فِيهِمْ أَمْ لَا

✧ Whenever the Messenger of Allah ﷺ dispatched a commander or appointed a commander over a military expedition or army, he would instruct him and counsel him personally to fear Allah and to treat well those Muslims with him. Then he would say: "Raid in the name of Allah and in the path of Allah. Fight those who disbelieve in Allah. Raid, but do not embezzle spoils, do not act treacherously, do not mutilate, and do not kill a child. When you meet your enemy from the polytheists, call them to one of three traits or qualities. Whichever of them they respond to, accept from them and refrain from them. Call them to Islam; if they respond, accept from them and refrain from them. Then call them to emigrate from their land to the land of the emigrants, and inform them that if they do so, they will have what the emigrants have and bear what the emigrants bear. If they refuse to leave their land, inform them that they will be like the Bedouin Muslims, subject to the judgment of Allah that applies to the Muslims, and they will have no share in the fayʾ or the spoils. If they refuse, then ask them for the jizyah; if they accept, accept from them and leave them alone. If they refuse, then fight them. When you besiege the people of a fortress and they ask you to grant them the protection of Allah and His Messenger, do not grant them the protection of Allah and His Messenger, but grant them your protection, the protection of your father, and the protections of your companions. For if you violate your protections and those of your companions, it is lighter than violating the protection of Allah and His Messenger ﷺ. When you besiege the people of a fortress and they ask you to bring them down according to the judgment of Allah, do not bring them down according to the judgment of Allah, but bring them down according to your judgment; for you do not know whether you will hit the judgment of Allah regarding them or not."
