English translation

2751. It was reported from 'Amr bin Shu'āib, from his father, from his grandfather who said: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'All the Muslims are equal in respect of blood. The protection given even by the least among them is to be honored, and reaches to the furthest of them. They should be united as one over their enemies. Those who have fleet-footed mounts should share their spoils with those who have slow mounts and those who go in a detachment should share the spoils with those who were stationed (as reinforcement). A believer is not killed (in retaliation) for a disbeliever, nor a one who has a covenant during the covenant.'" Ibn Ishāq (one of the narrators) did not mention retaliation and equality in respect of blood. (Hasan)

2751 - حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عَدِيٍّ، عَنِ ابْنِ إِسْحَاقَ هُوَ مُحَمَّدٌ بِبَعْضِ هَذَا، ح وحَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ بْنِ مَيْسَرَةَ، حَدَّثَنِي هُشَيْمٌ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، جَمِيعًا عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شُعَيْبٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «الْمُسْلِمُونَ تَتَكَافَأُ دِمَاؤُهُمْ. يَسْعَى بِذِمَّتِهِمْ أَدْنَاهُمْ، وَيُجِيرُ عَلَيْهِمْ أَقْصَاهُمْ، وَهُمْ يَدٌ عَلَى مَنْ سِوَاهُمْ يَرُدُّ مُشِدُّهُمْ عَلَى مُضْعِفِهِمْ ، وَمُتَسَرِّيهِمْ عَلَى قَاعِدِهِمْ لَا يُقْتَلُ مُؤْمِنٌ بِكَافِرٍ، وَلَا ذُو عَهْدٍ فِي عَهْدِهِ» وَلَمْ يَذْكُرْ ابْنُ إِسْحَاقَ: الْقَوَدَ وَالتَّكَافُؤَ "
