Those who were released without ransom
[ الَّذِينَ أَطْلَقُوا مِنْ غَيْرِ فِدَاءٍ ] قَالَ ابْنُ إسْحَاقَ: فَكَانَ مِمَّنْ سُمِّيَ لَنَا مِنْ الْأُسَارَى مِمَّنْ مُنَّ عَلَيْهِ بِغَيْرِ فِدَاءٍ، مِنْ بَنِي عَبْدِ شَمْسِ بْنِ عَبْدِ مَنَافٍ: أَبُو الْعَاصِ بْنُ الرَّبِيعِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْعُزَّى بْنِ عَبْدِ شَمْسِ مَنَّ عَلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بَعْدَ أَنْ بُعِثَتْ زَيْنَبُ بِنْتُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِفِدَائِهِ. وَمِنْ بَنِي مَخْزُومِ ( بْنِ يَقَظَةَ ): الْمُطَّلِبُ بْنُ حَنْطَبِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ عُبَيْدَةَ بْنِ عُمَرَ بْنِ مَخْزُومٍ، كَانَ لِبَعْضِ بَنِي الْحَارِثِ بْنِ الْخَزْرَجِ، فَتَرَكَ فِي أَيْدِيهِمْ حَتَّى خَلَّوْا سَبِيلَهُ. فَلَحِقَ بِقَوْمِهِ. قَالَ ابْنُ هِشَامٍ: أَسَرَهُ خَالِدُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، أَبُو أَيُّوبَ ( الْأَنْصَارِيُّ )، أَخُو بَنِي النَّجَّارِ. قَالَ ابْنُ إسْحَاقَ: وَصَيْفِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي رِفَاعَةَ بْنِ عَابِدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ بْنِ مَخْزُومٍ، تُرِكَ فِي أَيْدِي أَصْحَابِهِ، فَلَمَّا لَمْ يَأْتِ أَحَدٌ فِي فِدَائِهِ أَخَذُوا عَلَيْهِ لِيَبْعَثُنَّ إلَيْهِمْ بِفِدَائِهِ، فَخَلَّوْا سَبِيلَهُ، فَلَمْ يَفِ لَهُمْ بِشَيْءٍ، فَقَالَ حَسَّانُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ فِي ذَلِكَ:: وَمَا كَانَ صَيْفِيٌّ لِيُوفِيَ ذِمَّةً قَفَا ثَعْلَبٍ أَعْيَا بِبَعْضِ الْمَوَارِدِ قَالَ ابْنُ هِشَامٍ: وَهَذَا الْبَيْتُ فِي أَبْيَاتٍ لَهُ. قَالَ ابْنُ إسْحَاقَ: وَأَبُو عَزَّةَ، عَمْرُو بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ أُهَيْبِ بْنِ حُذَافَةَ بْنِ جُمَحَ، كَانَ مُحْتَاجًا ذَا بَنَاتٍ، فَكَلَّمَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ، فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، لَقَدْ عَرَفْتَ مَا لِي مِنْ مَالٍ، وَإِنِّي لَذُو حَاجَةٍ، وَذُو عِيَالٍ، فَامْنُنْ عَلَيَّ، فَمَنَّ عَلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ، وَأَخَذَ عَلَيْهِ أَلَّا يُظَاهِرَ عَلَيْهِ أَحَدًا فَقَالَ أَبُو عَزَّةَ فِي ذَلِكَ، يَمْدَحُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ، وَيَذْكُرُ فَضْلَهُ فِي قَوْمِهِ:: مَنْ مُبَلِّغٌ عَنِّي الرَّسُولَ مُحَمَّدًا بِأَنَّكَ حَقٌّ وَالْمَلِيكُ حَمِيدُ وَأَنْتَ امْرُؤٌ تَدْعُو فِي الْحَقِّ وَالْهُدَى عَلَيْكَ مِنْ اللَّهِ الْعَظِيمِ شَهِيدُ وَأَنْتَ امْرُؤُ بُوِّئْتَ فِينَا مَبَاءَةً لَهَا دَرَجَاتٌ سَهْلَةٌ وَصُعُودُ فَإِنَّكَ مَنْ حَارَبْتَهُ لَمُحَارَبٌ شَقِيٌّ وَمَنْ سَالَمَتْهُ لَسَعِيدُ وَلَكِنْ إذَا ذُكِّرْتُ بَدْرًا وَأَهْلَهُ تَأَوَّبَ مَا بِي: حَسْرَةٌ وَقُعُودُ [ ثَمَنُ الْفِدَاءِ ] قَالَ ابْنُ هِشَامٍ: كَانَ فِدَاءُ الْمُشْرِكِينَ يَوْمَئِذٍ أَرْبَعَةَ آلَافِ دِرْهَمٍ لِلرَّجُلِ، إلَى أَلْفِ دِرْهَمٍ، إلَّا مَنْ لَا شَيْءَ لَهُ، فَمَنَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَلَيْهِ
Translation
✧ [Those who were released without ransom] Ibn Isḥāq said: Among the prisoners named to us as those upon whom favor was bestowed without ransom, from the Banū ʿAbd Shams b. ʿAbd Manāf: Abū al-ʿĀṣ b. al-Rabīʿ b. ʿAbd al-ʿUzzā b. ʿAbd Shams. The Messenger of God ﷺ bestowed favor upon him after Zaynab, daughter of the Messenger of God ﷺ, had sent his ransom. And from the Banū Makhzūm (b. Yaqaẓah): al-Muṭṭalib b. Ḥanṭab b. al-Ḥārith b. ʿUbaydah b. ʿUmar b. Makhzūm. He belonged to some of the Banū al-Ḥārith b. al-Khazraj, and he was left in their hands until they let him go. He then joined his people. Ibn Hishām said: Khālid b. Zayd, Abū Ayyūb al-Anṣārī, brother of the Banū al-Najjār, took him captive. Ibn Isḥāq said: And Ṣayfī b. Abī Rifāʿah b. ʿĀbid b. ʿAbd Allāh b. ʿUmar b. Makhzūm was left in the hands of his companions. When no one came with his ransom, they took a promise from him that he would send them his ransom, then let him go. But he did not fulfill anything for them. Ḥassān b. Thābit said about that: “And Ṣayfī was not one to fulfill a covenant—the track of a fox that wearied at some of the watering places.” Ibn Hishām said: This verse is among verses of his. Ibn Isḥāq said: And Abū ʿAzzah, ʿAmr b. ʿAbd Allāh b. ʿUthmān b. Uhayb b. Ḥudhāfah b. Jumaḥ, was needy and had daughters. He spoke to the Messenger of God ﷺ and said, “O Messenger of God, you know what wealth I have, and I am in need and have a family. Bestow favor upon me.” So the Messenger of God ﷺ bestowed favor upon him, and took a pledge from him that he would not aid anyone against him. Abū ʿAzzah said about that, praising the Messenger of God ﷺ and mentioning his favor among his people: “Who will convey from me to the Messenger Muḥammad that you are true, and the King is praiseworthy. And you are a man who calls to truth and guidance—upon you is a witness from God the Mighty. And you are a man who was lodged among us in a lodging that has easy steps and ascents. For surely the one you fight is fought as a wretch, and the one you make peace with is fortunate. But when Badr and its people are recalled to me, what is in me returns: grief and sitting still.” [The price of ransom] Ibn Hishām said: The ransom of the polytheists that day was four thousand dirhams per man, down to one thousand dirhams, except for one who had nothing—upon whom the Messenger of God ﷺ bestowed favor.
