2842. It was narrated that Hanzalah Al-Kâtib said: "We went out to fight alongside the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ, and we passed by a slain woman whom the people had gathered around. They parted (to let the Prophet ﷺ through) and he said: 'This (woman) was not one of those who were fighting.' Then he said to a man: 'Go to Khâlid bin Walid and tell him that the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ commands you: "Do not kill any women or any (farm) laborer."' (Sahih) (Another chain) that was narrated from Rabâh bin Rabi', from the Prophet ﷺ, with similar wording. (Sahih) Abu Bakr bin Abu Shaibah said: "Thawri was mistaken in it."[1]

2842 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ، عَنِ الْمُرَقَّعِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ صَيْفِيٍّ، عَنْ حَنْظَلَةَ الْكَاتِبِ، قَالَ: غَزَوْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَمَرَرْنَا عَلَى امْرَأَةٍ مَقْتُولَةٍ، قَدِ اجْتَمَعَ عَلَيْهَا النَّاسُ، فَأَفْرَجُوا لَهُ، فَقَالَ: «مَا كَانَتْ هَذِهِ تُقَاتِلُ فِيمَنْ يُقَاتِلُ» ثُمَّ قَالَ لِرَجُلٍ: " انْطَلِقْ إِلَى خَالِدِ بْنِ الْوَلِيدِ، فَقُلْ لَهُ: إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَأْمُرُكَ، يَقُولُ: «لَا تَقْتُلَنَّ ذُرِّيَّةً، وَلَا عَسِيفًا» حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا الْمُغِيرَةُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ، عَنِ الْمُرَقَّعِ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ رَبَاحِ بْنِ الرَّبِيعِ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَحْوَهُ قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ: يُخْطِئُ الثَّوْرِيُّ فِيهِ
