2711, 2712. Narrated Marwān and Al-Miswar bin Makhrama رضي الله عنهما from the Companions of Allāh's Messenger ﷺ: When Suhail bin 'Amr agreed to the Treaty (of Ḥudaibiya), one of the things he stipulated then, was that the Prophet ﷺ should return to them (i.e., the Al-Mushrikūn) anyone coming to him from their side, even if he was a Muslim; and would not interfere between them and that person. The Muslims did not like this condition and got disgusted with it. Suhail did not agree except with that condition.

During that period some believing women emigrants including Umm Kulthūm bint 'Uqba bin Abū Mu'ait who came to Allāh's Messenger ﷺ and she was a young lady then.

2711 - حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ عُقَيْلٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي عُرْوَةُ بْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ مَرْوَانَ، وَالمِسْوَرَ بْنَ مَخْرَمَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا يُخْبِرَانِ، عَنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: لَمَّا كَاتَبَ سُهَيْلُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو يَوْمَئِذٍ كَانَ فِيمَا اشْتَرَطَ سُهَيْلُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو عَلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، أَنَّهُ لا يَأْتِيكَ مِنَّا أَحَدٌ وَإِنْ كَانَ عَلَى دِينِكَ إِلَّا رَدَدْتَهُ إِلَيْنَا، وَخَلَّيْتَ بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَهُ، فَكَرِهَ المُؤْمِنُونَ ذَلِكَ وَامْتَعَضُوا مِنْهُ وَأَبَى سُهَيْلٌ إِلَّا ذَلِكَ، «فَكَاتَبَهُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَى ذَلِكَ، فَرَدَّ يَوْمَئِذٍ أَبَا جَنْدَلٍ إِلَى أَبِيهِ سُهَيْلِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، وَلَمْ يَأْتِهِ أَحَدٌ مِنَ الرِّجَالِ إِلَّا رَدَّهُ فِي تِلْكَ المُدَّةِ، وَإِنْ كَانَ مُسْلِمًا»، وَجَاءَتِ المُؤْمِنَاتُ مُهَاجِرَاتٍ، وَكَانَتْ أُمُّ كُلْثُومٍ بِنْتُ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ أَبِي مُعَيْطٍ مِمَّنْ خَرَجَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَوْمَئِذٍ، وَهِيَ عَاتِقٌ، فَجَاءَ أَهْلُهَا يَسْأَلُونَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ يُرْجِعَهَا إِلَيْهِمْ، فَلَمْ يُرْجِعْهَا إِلَيْهِمْ، لِمَا أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ فِيهِنَّ: {إِذَا جَاءَكُمُ المُؤْمِنَاتُ مُهَاجِرَاتٍ، فَامْتَحِنُوهُنَّ اللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ بِإِيمَانِهِنَّ} [الممتحنة: 10] إِلَى قَوْلِهِ: {وَلاَ هُمْ يَحِلُّونَ لَهُنَّ} [الممتحنة: 10]،
