أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرُ بْنُ عَوْنٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عُمَيْسٍ عَنْ إِيَاسِ بْنِ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ الْأَكْوَعِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ
جَاءَ عَيْنٌ مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ نَازِلٌ فَلَمَّا طَعِمَ انْسَلَّ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «عَلَيَّ الرَّجُلُ اقْتُلُوهُ فَابْتَدَرَهُ الْقَوْمُ» قَالَ «وَكَانَ أَبِي يَسْبِقُ الْفَرَسَ شَدًّا فَسَبَقَهُمْ إِلَيْهِ فَأَخَذَهُ بِخِطَامِ رَاحِلَتِهِ فَقَتَلَهُ فَنَفَّلَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ سَلَبَهُ»

✧ A spy from the polytheists came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ while he was encamped. When he had eaten, he slipped away. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Bring me the man; kill him." The people rushed to him. He said, "My father could outrun a horse in speed, so he outpaced them to him. He seized him by the halter of his riding camel and killed him. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ gave him his spoils as a reward."
