4404. It was narrated from Sufyān: “Abdul-Malik bin ‘Umair narrated to us; “Atīyyah Al-Qurazī narrated to me, he said: I was among the captives of Banū Quraizah, and they examined (us). Those whose pubes had started to grow were executed, and those whose pubes had not started to grow were not executed. I was among those whose pubes had not started to grow.” (Sahih)
4404 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ بْنُ عُمَيْرٍ، حَدَّثَنِي عَطِيَّةُ الْقُرَظِيُّ، قَالَ: «كُنْتُ مِنْ سَبْيِ بَنِي قُرَيْظَةَ، فَكَانُوا يَنْظُرُونَ، فَمَنْ أَنْبَتَ الشَّعْرَ قُتِلَ، وَمَنْ لَمْ يُنْبِتْ لَمْ يُقْتَلْ، فَكُنْتُ فِيمَنْ لَمْ يُنْبِتْ»،

The tribe of Quraizah was a Jewish tribe that settled in the suburbs of Al-Madinah. They had a treaty with the Muslims, but they treacherously violated it during the Battle of the Trench, when they aided the disbelievers among the Quraish, and fought along with them against the Muslims. After the battle was over, the Muslims besieged the tribe, and later, the Jews showed their consent to accept the decision of Sa’d bin Mu’adh. He gave his verdict that the children and women should be enslaved and the adult males should be killed.
