قَالَ الْحَارِثُ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ أَبَانَ، ثَنَا بَشِيرُ بْنُ الْمُهَاجِرِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ؓ، قَالَ:
خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِي غَزَاةٍ وَاسْتَعْمَلَ خَالِدَ بْنَ الْوَلِيدِ عَلَى مُقَدِّمَتِهِ، فَرَأَى امْرَأَةً مَقْتُولَةً قَالَ: مَنْ قَتَلَ هَذِهِ ؟ قَالُوا: قَتَلَهَا خَالِدُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لِرَجُلٍ: الْحَقْ خَالِدَ بْنَ الْوَلِيدِ فَقُلْ لَهُ: لَا تَقْتُلَنَّ امْرَأَةً وَلَا صَبِيًّا وَلَا عَسِيفًا

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ went out on a military expedition and appointed Khalid b. al-Walid over the vanguard. He saw a slain woman and said: Who killed this one? They said: Khalid b. al-Walid killed her. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to a man: Catch up with Khalid b. al-Walid and say to him: Do not kill a woman, or a child, or a hired servant.
