Chapter 20 · Tribute, Spoils, and Rulership (Kitab Al-Kharaj, Wal-Fai' Wal-Imarah)حَدَّثَنَا الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَظِيمِ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ هَانِئٍ أَبُو نُعَيمٍ النَّخَعِيُّ، أَخْبَرَنَا شَرِيكٌ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ مُهَاجِرٍ، عَنْ زِيَادِ بْنِ حُدَيْرٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ عَلِيٌّ: لَئِنْ بَقِيتُ لِنَصَارَى بَنِي تَغْلِبَ لَأَقْتُلَنَّ الْمُقَاتِلَةَ وَلَأَسْبِيَنَّ الذُّرِّيَّةَ فَإِنِّي كَتَبْتُ الْكِتَابَ بَيْنَهُمْ وَبَيْنَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَى أَنْ لَا يُنَصِّرُوا أَبْنَاءَهُمْ، قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد: هَذَا حَدِيثٌ مُنْكَرٌ، بَلَغَنِي عَنْ أَحْمَدَ أَنَّه كَانَ يُنْكِرُ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ إِنْكَارًا شَدِيدًا، وَهُوَ عِنْدَ بَعْضِ الْنَّاسِ شِبْهُ الْمَتْرُوكِ وَأَنْكَرُوا هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ عَلَى عَبْدِ الْرَحْمَنِ بْنِ هَانِئٍ، قَالَ أَبُو عَلِيٍّ: وَلَمْ يَقْرَأْهُ أَبُو دَاوُدَ فِي الْعَرْضَةِ الثَّانِيَةِ.

“If I survive for the Christians of Banu Taghlib I shall kill fighters and captivate children for I had written a document between them and the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم to the effect that they would not make their children Christian. Abu Dawud said “This is rejected (munkar) tradition and it has reached me from Ahmad (bin Hanbal) that he used to reject this tradition seriously. Abu Ali said “Abu Dawud did not present this (tradition) in this second reading. ”
