Anas (RA) reported that Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) set out on an expedition to Khaibar and we observed our morning prayer in early hours of the dawn. The Apostle of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) then mounted and so did Abu Talha ride, and I was seating myself behind Abu Talha. Allah's Apostle ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) moved in the narrow street of Khaibar (and we rode so close to each other in the street) that my knee touched the leg of Allah's Apostle ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) . (A part of the) lower garment of Allah's Apostle ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) slipped from his leg and I could see the whiteness of the leg of Allah's Apostle ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) . As he entered the habitation he called: Allah-o-Akbar (Allah is the Greatest). Khaibar is ruined. And when we get down in the valley of a people, evil is the morning of the warned ones. He repeated it thrice. In the meanwhile the people went out for their work, and said: By Allah, Muhammad has come. Abdul 'Aziz or some of our companions said: Muhammad and the army (have come). He said: We took it (the territory of Khaibar) by force, and there were gathered the prisoners of war. There came Dihya and he said: Messenger of Allah, bestow upon me a girl, one of the prisoners. He said: Go and get any girl. He made a choice for Safiyya daughter of Huyayy (b. Akhtab). There came a person to Allah's Apostle ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) and said: Apostle of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) , you have bestowed Safiyya bint Huyayy, the chief of Quraiza and al-Nadir, upon Dihya and she is worthy of you only. He said: Call him along with her. So he came along with her. When Allah's Apostle ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) saw her he said: Take any other woman from among the prisoners. He (the narrator) said: He (the Holy Prophet) then granted her emancipation and married her. Thabit said to him: Abu Hamza, how much dower did he (the Holy Prophet) give to her? He said: He granted her freedom and then married her. On the way Umm Sulaim embellished her and then sent her to him (the Holy Prophet) at night. Allah's Apostle ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) appeared as a bridegroom in the morning. He (the Holy Prophet) said: He who has anything (to eat) should bring that. Then the cloth was spread. A person came with cheese, another came with dates, and still another came with refined butter, and they prepared hais and that was the wedding feast of Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم )

Abu Musa reported that Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said about one who emancipated a slave woman, and then married her, that for him there are two rewards.

Anas (RA) reported: I was sitting behind Abu Talha on the Day of Khaibar and my feet touched the foot of Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) , and we came (to the people of Khaibar) when the sun had risen and they had driven out their cattle, and had themselves come out with their axes, large baskets and hatchets, and they said: (Here come) Muhammad and the army. Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said: Khaibar is ruined. Verily when we get down in the valley of a people, evil is the morning of the warned ones (al-Qur'an, xxxvii. 177). Allah, the Majestic and the Glorious, defeated them (the inhabitants of Khaibar), and there fell to the lot of Dihya a beautiful girl, and Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) got her in exchange of seven heads, and then entrusted her to Umm Sulaim so that she might embellish her and prepare her (for marriage) with him. He (the narrator) said: He had been under the impression that he had said that so that she might spend her period of 'Iddah in her (Umm Sulaim's) house. (The woman) was Safiyya daughter of Huyayy. Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) arranged the wedding feast consisting of dates, cheese, and refined butter, and pits were dug and tiers were set in them dining cloths, and there was brought cheese and refined butter, and these were placed there. And the people ate to their fill, and they said: We do not know whether he (the Holy Prophet) had married her (as a free woman), or as a slave woman. They said: If he (the Holy Prophet) would make her wear the veil, then she would be a (free married) woman, and if he would not make her wear the veil, then she should be a slave woman. When he intended to ride, he made her wear the veil and she sat on the hind part of the camel; so they came to know that he had married her. As they approached Madinah, Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) drove (his ride) quickly and so we did. 'Adba' (the name of Allah's Apostle's camel) stumbled and Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) fell down and she (Hadrat Safiyya) also fell down. He (the Holy Prophet) stood up and covered her. woman looked towards her and said: May Allah keep away the Jewess! He (the narrator) said: I said: Aba Hamza, did Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) really fall down? He said: Yes, by Allah, he in fact fell down. Anas said: I also saw the wedding feast of Zainab, and he (the Holy Prophet) served bread and meat to the people, and made them eat to their heart's content, and he (the Holy Prophet) sent me to call people, and as he was free (from the ceremony) he stood up and I followed him. Two persons were left and they were busy in talking and did not get out (of the apartment). He (the Holy Prophet) then proceeded towards (the apartments of) his wives. He greeted with as-Salamu 'alaikum to every one of them and said: Members of the household, how are you? They said: Messenger of Allah, we are in good state 'How do you find your family? He would say: In good state. When he was free from (this work of exchanging greetings) he came back, and I also came back along with him. And as he reached the door, (he found) that the two men were still busy in talking. And when they saw him having returned, they stood up and went out; and by Allah! I do not know whether I had informed him, or there was a revelation to him (to the affect) that they had gone. He (the Holy Prophet) then came back and I also returned along with him, and as he put his step on the threshold of his door he hung a curtain between me and him, and (it was on this occasion) that Allah revealed this verse: ("O you who believe), do not enter the houses of the Prophet ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) unless permission is given to 'you" (xxxiii. 53).

And Abu Bakr ibn Abi Shaybah narrated to us, he said: Shababa narrated to us, he said: Sulayman narrated to us, from Thabit, from Anas. And Abdullah ibn Hashim ibn Hayyan also narrated it to me, and the wording is his: Bahz narrated to us, Sulayman ibn al-Mughira narrated to us, from Thabit, Anas narrated to us, he said: Safiyyah became the share of Dihyah in his portion, and they began to praise her before the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him. He said: And they said: "We have not seen among the captives anyone like her." He said: "So he sent for Dihyah, and gave him for her whatever he wanted, then he handed her over to my mother and said: 'Prepare her.'" He said: Then the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, left Khaybar, and when he placed her behind him, he dismounted, then set up a tent for her. When morning came, the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Whoever has surplus food, let him bring it to us." He said: So a man would come with surplus dates and surplus sawiq, until they made from that a blackish hais, and they began to eat from that hais and drink from the water basins beside them from the water of the sky. He said: Anas said: That was the wedding feast of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, for her. He said: So we set out until when we saw the walls of Madinah, we became eager for it, so we raised our mounts and the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, raised his mount. He said: Safiyyah was behind him, the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, had seated her behind him. He said: The mount of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, stumbled, and he fell and she fell. He said: No one among the people looked at him or at her, until the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, stood up and covered her. He said: So we came to him, and he said: "We were not harmed." He said: Then we entered Madinah, and the slave girls of his wives came out to look at her and to gloat over her fall.
