[4349] 6 - (...) It was narrated from Sahl bin Abî Hathmah that some of the elders of his people told him, that 'Abdullâh bin Sahl and Muḥaisah went out to Khaibar, because of some problem. Then Muḥaisah came and said that 'Abdullâh bin Sahl had been killed and thrown into a shallow well or ditch. He went to the Jews and said: "You killed him, by Allâh." They said: "By Allâh, we did not kill him." Then he went to his people and told them about that. Then he came with his brother Ḥuwaîsah, who was older than him, and 'Abdur-Raḥmân bin Sahl. Muḥaisah began to speak, as he was the one who had been in Khaibar, but the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said to Muḥaiṣah: "Let the oldest speak." So Ḥuwaīṣah spoke, then Muḥaiṣah spoke, and the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "They should pay the Diyah for your companion or else expect war." The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ wrote to them about that, and they wrote back (saying): "By Allāh we did not kill him." The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said to Ḥuwaīṣah, Muḥaiṣah, and 'Abdur-Raḥmān: "Will you swear, so that you will be entitled to Diyah for the blood of your companion?" They said: "No." He said: "Then should the Jews swear for you?" They said: "They are not Muslims." So the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ paid the blood money for him, and sent one hundred camels to them. Sahl said: "A red she-camel among them kicked me."
