قَالَ مُسَدَّدٌ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ، ثَنَا مُجَالِدٌ، حَدَّثَنِي عَرِيفٌ لِجُهَيْنَةَ:
أَنَّ نَاسًا مِنْ جُهَيْنَةَ أَتَوُا النَّبِيَّ ﷺ بِأَسِيرٍ فِي السَّبْيِ، فَقَالَ: " اذْهَبُوا بِهِ فَأَدْفِئُوهُ " قَالَ: وَكَانَ الدِّفْءُ بِلِسَانِهِمُ الْقَتْلَ، فَذَهَبُوا بِهِ فَقَتَلُوهُ، فَسَأَلَهُمُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ، فَقَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، أَمَرْتَنَا أَنْ نَقْتُلَهُ فَقَتَلْنَاهُ، قَالَ ﷺ: " كَيْفَ قُلْتُ لَكُمْ ؟ ". قَالُوا: قُلْتَ لَنَا: اذْهَبُوا بِهِ فَأَدْفِئُوهُ. قَالَ ﷺ: قَدْ شَرِكْتُكُمْ، إِذًا اعْقِلُوهُ، وَأَنَا شَرِيكُكُمْ

✧ Some people from Juhaynah brought a captive to the Prophet ﷺ, and he said: "Take him and warm him (adfi'uhu)." He said: In their dialect, 'warmth' meant killing. So they took him and killed him. The Prophet ﷺ asked them, and they said: O Messenger of Allah, you commanded us to kill him, so we killed him. He ﷺ said: "How did I say to you?" They said: You said to us: Take him and warm him. He ﷺ said: I have shared with you; therefore pay his blood money, and I am your partner in it.
