6805. Narrated Anas bin Mālik رضي الله عنه: A group of people from 'Ukl (or 'Uraina) tribe — but I think he said that they were from 'Ukl — came to Al-Madīna and (they became ill, so) the Prophet ﷺ ordered them to go to the herd of (milch) she-camels and told them to go out and drink the camels' urine and milk (as a medicine). So they went and drank it, and when they became healthy, they killed the shepherd and drove away the camels. This news reached the Prophet ﷺ early in the morning, so he sent (some) men in their pursuit and they were captured and brought to the Prophet ﷺ before mid-day. He ordered to cut off their hands and legs and their eyes to be branded with heated iron pieces, and they were thrown at Al-Harra, and when they asked for water to drink, they were not given water. Abū Qilāba said, "Those were the people who committed theft and murder and reverted to disbelief after being believers (Muslims), and fought against Allāh and His Messenger ﷺ."

6805 - حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، عَنْ أَبِي قِلاَبَةَ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ: أَنَّ رَهْطًا مِنْ عُكْلٍ، أَوْ قَالَ: عُرَيْنَةَ، وَلاَ أَعْلَمُهُ إِلَّا قَالَ: مِنْ عُكْلٍ، قَدِمُوا المَدِينَةَ «فَأَمَرَ لَهُمُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِلِقَاحٍ، وَأَمَرَهُمْ أَنْ يَخْرُجُوا فَيَشْرَبُوا مِنْ أَبْوَالِهَا وَأَلْبَانِهَا» فَشَرِبُوا حَتَّى إِذَا بَرِئُوا قَتَلُوا الرَّاعِيَ، وَاسْتَاقُوا النَّعَمَ، فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ غُدْوَةً، فَبَعَثَ الطَّلَبَ فِي إِثْرِهِمْ، فَمَا ارْتَفَعَ النَّهَارُ حَتَّى جِيءَ بِهِمْ «فَأَمَرَ بِهِمْ فَقَطَعَ أَيْدِيَهُمْ وَأَرْجُلَهُمْ وَسَمَرَ أَعْيُنَهُمْ، فَأُلْقُوا بِالحَرَّةِ يَسْتَسْقُونَ فَلاَ يُسْقَوْنَ» قَالَ أَبُو قِلاَبَةَ: «هَؤُلاَءِ قَوْمٌ سَرَقُوا وَقَتَلُوا وَكَفَرُوا بَعْدَ إِيمَانِهِمْ، وَحَارَبُوا اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ»
