Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي بُكَيْرٍ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْرَائِيلُ عَنْ سِمَاكٍ عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ مَرَّ رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَنِي سُلَيْمٍ بِنَفَرٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ يَسُوقُ غَنَمًا لَهُ فَسَلَّمَ عَلَيْهِمْ فَقَالُوا مَا سَلَّمَ عَلَيْنَا إِلَّا لِيَتَعَوَّذَ مِنَّا فَعَمَدُوا إِلَيْهِ فَقَتَلُوهُ وَأَتَوْا بِغَنَمِهِ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَنَزَلَتْ الْآيَةُ { يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِذَا ضَرَبْتُمْ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ فَتَبَيَّنُوا }.
English Translation
A man from Banu Sulaym passed by a group of the Companions of the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) while he was driving his sheep. He greeted them, and they said: "He only greeted us to seek protection from us." So they attacked him, killed him, and brought his sheep to the Prophet (peace be upon him). Then the verse was revealed: "O you who believe, when you go forth in the way of Allah, investigate."
