[4343] 2 - (...) It was narrated from Sahl bin Mas'ūd and Rāfi' bin Khadīj, that Muḥaiṣah bin Mas'ūd and 'Abdullāh bin Sahl went to Khaibar, where they parted among the palm trees. 'Abdullāh bin Sahl was killed, and they accused the Jews. His brother 'Abdur-Raḥmān and his two cousins Ḥuwaīṣah, and Muḥaiṣah, came to the Prophet ﷺ and 'Abdur-Raḥmān began to speak about his brother, but he was the youngest of them, so the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "Let the eldest speak" or he ﷺ said "Let the eldest speak first." So they spoke about their companion's case, and the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "Let fifty of you swear against one of them, then he will be handed over to you." They said: "It is something that we did not witness; how can we swear?" He said: "Then let the Jews swear fifty oaths that they are innocent." They said: "O Messenger of Allâh, they are a disbelieving people." So the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ paid the blood money himself. Sahl said: "I entered a Mirbad (camel pen) of theirs one day, and a she-camel among those camels (that were given as blood money) kicked me."

2 - (1669) وحَدَّثَنِي عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ الْقَوَارِيرِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ بُشَيْرِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ أَبِي حَثْمَةَ، وَرَافِعِ بْنِ خَدِيجٍ، أَنَّ مُحَيِّصَةَ بْنَ مَسْعُودٍ، وَعَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ سَهْلٍ، انْطَلَقَا قِبَلَ خَيْبَرَ، فَتَفَرَّقَا فِي النَّخْلِ، فَقُتِلَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ سَهْلٍ، فَاتَّهَمُوا الْيَهُودَ، فَجَاءَ أَخُوهُ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ، وَابْنَا عَمِّهِ حُوَيِّصَةُ، وَمُحَيِّصَةُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَتَكَلَّمَ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ فِي أَمْرِ أَخِيهِ، وَهُوَ أَصْغَرُ مِنْهُمْ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «كَبِّرِ الْكُبْرَ»، أَوْ قَالَ: «لِيَبْدَأِ الْأَكْبَرُ»، فَتَكَلَّمَا فِي أَمْرِ صَاحِبِهِمَا، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «يَقْسِمُ خَمْسُونَ مِنْكُمْ عَلَى رَجُلٍ مِنْهُمْ، فَيُدْفَعُ بِرُمَّتِهِ»، قَالُوا: أَمْرٌ لَمْ نَشْهَدْهُ، كَيْفَ نَحْلِفُ؟ قَالَ: «فَتُبْرِئُكُمْ يَهُودُ بِأَيْمَانِ خَمْسِينَ مِنْهُمْ»، قَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، قَوْمٌ كُفَّارٌ؟ قَالَ: فَوَدَاهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنْ قِبَلِهِ، قَالَ سَهْلٌ: فَدَخَلْتُ مِرْبَدًا لَهُمْ يَوْمًا فَرَكَضَتْنِي نَاقَةٌ مِنْ تِلْكَ الْإِبِلِ رَكْضَةً بِرِجْلِهَا، قَالَ حَمَّادٌ: هَذَا أَوْ نَحْوَهُ،
