حَدَّثَنَا يُونُسُ وَعَفَّانُ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ بْنُ زِيَادٍ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو رَوْقٍ عَطِيَّةُ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْغَرِيفِ قَالَ عَفَّانُ أَبُو الْغَرِيفِ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ خَلِيفَةَ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ عَسَّالٍ الْمُرَادِيِّ قَالَ بَعَثَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي سَرِيَّةٍ فَقَالَ اغْزُوا بِسْمِ اللَّهِ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ وَلَا تَغُلُّوا وَلَا تَغْدِرُوا وَلَا تُمَثِّلُوا وَلَا تَقْتُلُوا وَلِيدًا لِلْمُسَافِرِ ثَلَاثٌ مَسْحٌ عَلَى الْخُفَّيْنِ وَلِلْمُقِيمِ يَوْمٌ وَلَيْلَةٌ قَالَ عَفَّانُ فِي حَدِيثِهِ بَعَثَنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ.
English Translation
It was narrated to us by Yunus and Affan, who said: it was narrated to us by Abd al-Wahid ibn Ziyad, who said: it was narrated to us by Abu Rawq Atiyyah ibn al-Harith, who said: it was narrated to us by Abu al-Gharif — Affan said, "Abu al-Gharif is Abdullah ibn Khalifah" — from Safwan ibn Assal al-Muradi, who said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, sent us out on a military detachment and said, "Go out to fight in the name of Allah, in the path of Allah. Do not embezzle from the spoils, do not betray, do not mutilate the dead, and do not kill any child. For the traveler, three days of wiping over the leather socks, and for the resident, a day and a night." Affan said in his account: "The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, sent me out."
