Abu Sa'id al-Khudri (RA) reported that at the Battle of Hunain Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) sent an army to Autas and encountered the enemy and fought with them. Having overcome them and taken them captives, the Companions of Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) seemed to refrain from having intercourse with captive women because of their husbands being polytheists. Then Allah, Most High, sent down regarding that:" And women already married, except those whom your right hands possess (iv. 24)" (i. e. they were lawful for them when their 'Idda period came to an end).

Abu Sa'id al-Khudri (RA) reported that Allah's Apostle ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) sent a small army. The rest of the hadith is the same except this that he said: Except what your right hands possess out of them are lawful for you; and he did not mention "when their 'idda period comes to an end". This hadith has been reported on the authority of Abu Sa'id (al-Khudri) (RA) through another chain of transmitters and the words are: They took captives (women) on the day of Autas who had their husbands. They were afraid (to have sexual intercourse with them) when this verse was revealed: "And women already married except those whom your right hands posses" (iv. 24)

'A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) reported: Sa'd bin Abu Waqqas and Abd bin Zam'a (RA) disputed with each other over a young boy. Sa'd said: Messenger of Allah, he is the son of my brother 'Utba bin Abu Waqqas as he made it explicit that he was his son. Look at his resemblance. Abd bin Zam'a said: Messenger of Allah, he is my brother as he was born on the bed of my father from his slave-girl. Allah's Messenger (may peace he upon him) looked at his resemblance and found a clear resemblance with 'Utba. (But) he said: He is yours 0 'Abd (b. Zam'a), for the child is to be attributed to one on whose bed it is born, and stoning for a fornicator. Sauda bint Zam'a, O you should observe veil from him. So he did not see Sauda at all. Muhammad bin Rumh did not make a mention (of the words):" O Abd."
