English translation

4030. It was narrated from Anas that some people from 'Ukl came to the Prophet ﷺ but the climate of Al-Madīnah did not suit them. The Prophet ﷺ told them to go to the camels that had been given in Sadaqah and drink some of their milk and urine. They did that, then they killed their herdsman and drove off the camels. The Prophet ﷺ sent (men) after them, and they were brought to him. He had their hands and feet cut off, and their eyes gouged out,[2] and he did not have (their wounds) cauterized, and he left them to die. Then Allāh, the Mighty and Sublime, revealed: "The recompense of those who wage war against Allāh and His Messenger."[1] (Sahih)

Arabic text

4025 - أَخْبَرَنِي عَمْرُو بْنُ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ سَعِيدِ بْنِ كَثِيرِ بْنِ دِينَارٍ، عَنْ الْوَلِيدِ، عَنْ الْأَوْزَاعِيِّ، عَنْ يَحْيَى، عَنْ أَبِي قِلَابَةَ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، «أَنَّ نَفَرًا مِنْ عُكْلٍ قَدِمُوا عَلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَاجْتَوَوْا الْمَدِينَةَ، فَأَمَرَهُمُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ يَأْتُوا إِبِلَ الصَّدَقَةِ، فَيَشْرَبُوا مِنْ أَبْوَالِهَا وَأَلْبَانِهَا، فَفَعَلُوا فَقَتَلُوا رَاعِيَهَا وَاسْتَاقُوهَا، فَبَعَثَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي طَلَبِهِمْ»، قَالَ: «فَأُتِيَ بِهِمْ، فَقَطَّعَ أَيْدِيَهُمْ وَأَرْجُلَهُمْ، وَسَمَّرَ أَعْيُنَهُمْ، وَلَمْ يَحْسِمْهُمْ وَتَرَكَهُمْ حَتَّى مَاتُوا»، فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ: {إِنَّمَا جَزَاءُ الَّذِينَ يُحَارِبُونَ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ} [المائدة: 33] الْآيَةَ

  1. 1

    [1] Sammara or Samara means poking their eyes with hot rods until their sight had gone. See the commentary of As-Sindī. As for Samala, some versions have it, Al-Khattābī said: "Gouging out the eye, by whatever means." See Faḥḥ Al-Bārī (No. 233 of Al-Bukhārī.) We used "branded" for Sammara and Samara and "gouged" for Samala in the translation.

  2. 2

    [2] This narration says Samala.
