29630 - Sulayman ibn Yasar said: Al-Qasama (is a right) (1) which was judged by the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم (2). While the Ansar were with the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم , (when) (3) a man from among them went out, then they left the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم , and found their companion (wallowing) (4) in his blood. They returned to the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم and said: "The Jews have killed us"—and they named a man among them, but they had no (for them) (5) evidence. The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم said to them: "Two witnesses from other than yourselves, so that I may hand him over to you entirely." (But they had no evidence, so he said:) "Claim it with fifty oaths and I will hand him over to you entirely." (6) (They said) (7): "O Messenger of Allah, we dislike to swear about the unseen." So the Prophet of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم wanted to take the oaths of the Jews, fifty from among them. The Ansar said: "O Messenger of Allah, the Jews do not care about swearing; (whenever) (8) (we) (9) accept this from them, they will destroy us all." So the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم paid the blood money from his own resources (10).
