The mutilation of Ḥamza after his death
[ مَا نَزَلَ فِي النَّهْيِ عَنْ الْمُثْلَةِ ] قَالَ ابْنُ إسْحَاقَ: وَحَدَّثَنِي بُرَيْدَةُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ بْنِ فَرْوَةَ الْأَسْلَمِيُّ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ كَعْبٍ الْقُرَظِيُّ، وَحَدَّثَنِي مَنْ لَا أَتَّهِمُ، عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ: أَنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ أَنْزَلَ فِي ذَلِكَ، مِنْ قَوْلِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَقَوْلِ أَصْحَابِهِ: وَإِنْ عَاقَبْتُمْ فَعَاقِبُوا بِمِثْلِ مَا عُوقِبْتُمْ بِهِ وَلَئِنْ صَبَرْتُمْ لَهُوَ خَيْرٌ لِلصَّابِرِينَ وَاصْبِرْ وَمَا صَبْرُكَ إِلَّا بِاللَّهِ وَلَا تَحْزَنْ عَلَيْهِمْ وَلَا تَكُ فِي ضَيْقٍ مِمَّا يَمْكُرُونَ فَعَفَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ، وَصَبَرَ وَنَهَى عَنْ الْمُثْلَةِ قَالَ ابْنُ إسْحَاقَ: وَحَدَّثَنِي حُمَيْدُ الطَّوِيلُ، عَنْ الْحَسَنِ، عَنْ سَمُرَةَ بْنِ جُنْدُبٍ، قَالَ: مَا قَامَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي مَقَامٍ قَطُّ فَفَارَقَهُ، حَتَّى يَأْمُرَنَا بِالصَّدَقَةِ، وَيَنْهَانَا عَنْ الْمُثْلَةِ
Translation
✧ [What was revealed concerning the prohibition of mutilation] Ibn Isḥāq said: Buraydah b. Sufyān b. Farwah al-Aslamī related to me, from Muḥammad b. Kaʿb al-Quraẓī, and one whom I do not suspect related to me, from Ibn ʿAbbās: that God, mighty and majestic be He, revealed concerning that, from the saying of the Messenger of God ﷺ and the saying of his companions: “And if you punish, punish with the like of that with which you were afflicted. But if you endure patiently, verily it is better for the patient. And endure patiently; your patience is only by God. And do not grieve over them, and do not be in distress over what they plot” (Q 16:126–127). So the Messenger of God ﷺ pardoned, endured patiently, and forbade mutilation. Ibn Isḥāq said: Ḥumayd al-Ṭawīl related to me, from al-Ḥasan, from Samurah b. Jundub, who said: The Messenger of God ﷺ never stood in any place and then left it without commanding us to give charity and forbidding us from mutilation.
