The Book of Jihad Summary

1. Yahya related to me from Malik from Zayd ibn Aslam from Abu Salihas Samman from Abu Hurayra that the Messenger of Allah may Allahbless him and grant him peace said Horses are a reward for one man a protection for another a burden for another
2. The one who has themas a reward is the one who dedicates them for use in the way of Allah and tethers them in a meadow or grassland
3. It is claimed that Yazid said to Abu Bakr Will you ride or shall Iget down Abu Bakrsaid I will not ride and you will not get down
4. Ithink that one can request an army not to kill someone by gesturingfor safe conduct because as far as I am concerned gesture has thesame status as speech
5. Malik said about enemy soldiers who were found on the seashore ofa Muslim land and they claimed that they were merchants and that thesea had driven them ashore while the Muslims were not able to verifyany of that except that their ships were damaged or they were thirstyand had disembarked without the permission of the Muslims I thinkthat it is up to the imam to give his opinion about them and I do notthink that the tax of one fifth is taken from them
6. Regarding an umm walad of a Muslim man who has been taken bythe idol worshippers and then recaptured by the Muslims and allottedin the distribution of spoils and then recognised by her master afterthe distribution Malik said She is not to be enslaved
7. Malik was asked about aman who went to enemy territory to pay ransom or to trade and hebought a free man or a slave or they were given to him
8. As for a slave his former master can choose totake him back and pay his price to the man who bought him or he canchoose to leave him as he wishes
9. Then the man said What are the spoils which He the Blessed the Exalted mentioned in His Book He kept on askinguntil Ibn Abbas was on the verge of being annoyed then Ibn Abbassaid Do you know who this man is like Ibn Sabigh who was beaten byUmar ibn al Khattab because he was notorious for asking foolishquestions
10. Yahya related to me that Malik said that he had heard that Umaribn Abd al Aziz used to say The man on horse back has two shares and the man on foot has one
11. Then he took abit of camel fluff or something from the ground and said By He inwhose hand my self is What Allah has made spoils for you is not mine even the like of this except for the tax of one fifth and thetax of one fifth is returned to you
12. The Messenger ofAllah may Allah bless him and grant him peace made for Wadi l Qura and when he arrived there Midam was unsaddling the camel of theMessenger of Allah may Allah bless him and grant him peace when astray arrow struck and killed him
13. Yahya related to me from Malik from Abu z Zinad from al Araj fromAbu Hurayra that the Messenger of Allah may Allah bless him and granthim peace said By He in whose hand my self is I would like tofight in the way of Allah and be killed then be brought to life againso I could be killed and then be brought to life again so I could bekilled
14. Yahya related to me from Malik from Zayd ibn Aslam that Umar ibnal Khattab used to say O Allah Do not let me be slain by the handof a man who has prayed a single prostration to You with which he willdispute with me before You on the Day of Rising Jihad
15. I would liketo fight in the way of Allah and be killed then brought to life so Icould be killed and then brought to life so I could be killed
16. Yahya related to me from Malik that Yahya ibn Said said On theDay of Uhud The Messenger of Allah may Allah bless him and grant himpeace said Who will bring me news of Sad ibn al Rabi al Ansari aman said Me Messenger of Allah So the man went around among theslain and Sad ibn al Rabi said to him What are you doing The mansaid to him The Messenger of Allah may Allah bless him and granthim peace sent me to bring him news of you
17. Yahya related to me from Malik from Humayd at Tawil from Anas ibnMalik that when the Messenger of Allah may Allah bless him and granthim peace went out to Khaybar he arrived there at night and when hecame upon a people by night he did not attack until morning
