English translation
[4519] 1 - (1730) It was narrated that Ibn 'Awn said: I wrote to Nâfi' asking him about calling people (to Islam) before fighting. He wrote back to me (saying): That was only at the beginning of Islam. The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ raided Banû Al-Muṣṭaliq when they were unaware, and their cattle were drinking at the water. He killed their warriors and took their women and children captive. On that day - Yahyâ said: I think he said - Juwayriyah, the daughter of Al-Hârith, fell to his lot. He said: And 'Abdullâh bin 'Umar narrated this Ĥadîth to me, and he was one of that army.
