The Prophet's ﷺ Disapproval of b. Jahsh's Fighting in the Sacred Month
[ نُكْرَانُ الرَّسُولِ ﷺ عَلَى ابْنِ جَحْشٍ قِتَالَهُ فِي الشَّهْرِ الْحَرَامِ ] قَالَ ابْنُ إسْحَاقَ: فَلَمَّا قَدمِوا عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ الْمَدِينَةَ، قَالَ: مَا أَمَرْتُكُمْ بِقِتَالٍ فِي الشَّهْرِ الْحَرَامِ. فَوَقَّفَ الْعِيرَ وَالْأَسِيرَيْنِ. وَأَبَى أَنْ يَأْخُذَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ شَيْئًا فَلَمَّا قَالَ ذَلِكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ سُقِطَ فِي أَيْدِي الْقَوْمِ، وَظَنُّوا أَنَّهُمْ قَدْ هَلَكُوا، وَعَنَّفَهُمْ إخْوَانُهُمْ مِنْ الْمُسْلِمِينَ فِيمَا صَنَعُوا. وَقَالَتْ قُرَيْشٌ قَدْ اسْتَحَلَّ مُحَمَّدٌ وَأَصْحَابُهُ الشَّهْرَ الْحَرَامَ، وَسَفَكُوا فِيهِ الدَّمَ، وَأَخَذُوا فِيهِ الْأَمْوَالَ، وَأَسَرُوا فِيهِ الرِّجَالَ؛ فَقَالَ مَنْ يَرُدُّ عَلَيْهِمْ مِنْ الْمُسْلِمِينَ، مِمَّنْ كَانَ بِمَكَّةَ: إنَّمَا أَصَابُوا مَا أَصَابُوا فِي شَعْبَانَ
Translation
✧ Ibn Isḥāq said: When they came to the Messenger of God ﷺ in Madinah, he said: "I did not command you to fight in the sacred month." He detained the caravan and the two captives, and refused to take anything of that. When the Messenger of God ﷺ said that, the people were dismayed and thought they were ruined. Their Muslim brothers reproached them for what they had done. Quraysh said: "Muḥammad and his companions have made the sacred month lawful; they shed blood in it, seized wealth in it, and captured men in it." Those Muslims who were in Makkah and who responded to them said: "They only attained what they attained in Shaʿbān."
