حَدَّثَنَا هَنَّادٌ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ أَبِي خَالِدٍ، عَنْ قَيْسِ بْنِ أَبِي حَازِمٍ، عَنْ جَرِيرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بَعَثَ سَرِيَّةً إِلَى خَثْعَمٍ فَاعْتَصَمَ نَاسٌ بِالسُّجُودِ فَأَسْرَعَ فِيهِمُ الْقَتْلُ فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَمَرَ لَهُمْ بِنِصْفِ الْعَقْلِ وَقَالَ: «أَنَا بَرِيءٌ مِنْ كُلِّ مُسْلِمٍ يُقِيمُ بَيْنَ أَظْهُرِ الْمُشْرِكِينَ». قَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَلِمَ قَالَ: «لَا تَرَايَا نَارَاهُمَا»

The Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) sent a military expedition to Khatham. So some people (living there) sought safety by prostrating, but they were met quickly and killed. News of this reached the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) upon which he commanded that they be given half of the Aql (blood money).

And he said: “I am free from every Muslim that lives among the idolaters.” They said: “O Messenger of Allah: How is that?” He said: “They should not see each other’s campfires.”

জারীর ইবনু আবদুল্লাহ (রাঃ) হতে বর্ণিত আছে, খাসআমদের অঞ্চলে রাসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম একটি ছোট বাহিনী প্রেরণ করেন। সিজদার মাধ্যমে সেখানকার জনগণ আত্মরক্ষা করতে চাইল। কিন্তু দ্রুততার সাথে তাদেরকে মেরে ফেলা হয়। এ সংবাদ রাসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লামের নিকট আসলে তিনি তাদের অর্ধেক দিয়াত (রক্তপণ) দেওয়ার জন্য হুকুম দেন।

তিনি আরো বলেন, মুশরিকদের সাথে যে সকল মুসলিম বসবাস করে আমি তাদের দায়িত্ব হতে মুক্ত। সাহাবীগণ বললেন, হে আল্লাহর রাসূল! তা কেন? তিনি বললেনঃ এইটুকু দূরে থাকবে যেন উভয়ের আগুন না দেখা যায়।

جریر بن عبداللہ رضی الله عنہ سے روایت ہے کہ رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے قبیلہ خثعم کی طرف ایک سریہ روانہ کیا، ( کافروں کے درمیان رہنے والے مسلمانوں میں سے ) کچھ لوگوں نے سجدہ کے ذریعہ پناہ چاہی، پھر بھی انہیں قتل کرنے میں جلدی کی گئی، نبی اکرم صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کو اس کی خبر ملی تو آپ نے ان کو آدھی دیت دینے کا حکم دیا اور فرمایا: ”میں ہر اس مسلمان سے بری الذمہ ہوں جو مشرکوں کے درمیان رہتا ہے“، لوگوں نے پوچھا: اللہ کے رسول!

آخر کیوں؟ آپ نے فرمایا: ” ( مسلمان کو کافروں سے اتنی دوری پر سکونت پذیر ہونا چاہیئے کہ ) وہ دونوں ایک دوسرے ( کے کھانا پکانے ) کی آگ نہ دیکھ سکیں“ ۱؎۔

Cerir b. Abdullah (r.a.)’den rivâyet edilmiştir. Rasûlullah (s.a.v.) Has’am kabilesine bir müfreze gönderdi. Orada bulunan insanlardan bir kısmı Müslüman olduklarını bildirip kendilerini korumak için secdeye kapandılarsa da müfreze öldürme işinde acele ederek onları da öldürdüler. Durum Rasûlullah (s.a.v.)’e ulaşınca onlardan her biri için yarım diyet ödenmesini emretti ve: “Ben müşrikler içerisinde yaşantısını devam ettiren her Müslüman’dan uzağım” buyurdu.

Nedendir? Ey Allah’ın Rasûlü! Dediler. Çünkü onların yaktıkları ateşler birbirinden ayırt edilemez veya müşriklerle Müslümanların ateşleri birbirlerini görmesin yani çok yakın olup uzaktan bu yanan ateşin kimin olduğu belirsiz olur ve yanlışlıkla müşrik yerine Müslüman öldürülür buyurdular.

What it means

The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) sent an army brigade to a group from the tribe of Khath‘am who were disbelievers. So, some of them resorted to prostration to show that they were Muslim. However, the Muslims hastened to kill them, thinking that they were polytheists, and because they stayed among the polytheists.

When it was later confirmed that they (who prostrated) had converted to Islam, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) made their blood money half of that of Muslims. He did not give them a full blood money because they were the reason behind their own killing. The Shariah forbids staying in the land of the disbelievers, such that Muslims should not meet the disbelievers or their fires cross.

This means that they should not be close enough to see each other's fire. The purpose is for the Muslims to disassociate themselves from disbelief and its people.
