حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَهَّابِ بْنُ عَطَاءٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا جَرِيرُ بْنُ حَازِمٍ، عَنْ قَيْسِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ هُرْمُزَ،، ، أَنَّ نَجْدَةَ كَتَبَ إِلَى ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ يَسْأَلُهُ عَنْ سَهْمِ ذِي الْقُرْبَى لِمَنْ هُوَ؟ وَعَنِ الْيَتِيمِ مَتَى يَنْقَضِي يُتْمُهُ؟ وَعَنِ الْمَرْأَةِ وَالْعَبْدِ يَشْهَدَانِ الْغَنِيمَةَ؟ وَعَنْ قَتْلِ أَطْفَالِ الْمُشْرِكِينَ؟ فَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ: لَوْلا أَنْ أَرُدَّهُ عَنْ شَيْءٍ يَقَعُ فِيهِ، مَا أَجَبْتُهُ. وَكَتَبَ إِلَيْهِ: إِنَّكَ كَتَبْتَ إِلَيَّ تَسْأَلُ (١) عَنْ سَهْمِ ذِي الْقُرْبَى لِمَنْ هُوَ؟ وَإِنَّا كُنَّا نَرَاهَا لِقَرَابَةِ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَأَبَى ذَلِكَ عَلَيْنَا قَوْمُنَا، وَعَنِ الْيَتِيمِ مَتَى يَنْقَضِي يُتْمُهُ؟ قَالَ: إِذَا احْتَلَمَ وَأُونِسَ مِنْهُ خَيْرٌ، وَعَنِ الْمَرْأَةِ وَالْعَبْدِ يَشْهَدَانِ الْغَنِيمَةَ؟ فَلا شَيْءَ لَهُمَا، وَلَكِنَّهُمَا يُحْذَيَانِ وَيُعْطَيَانِ، وَعَنْ قَتْلِ أَطْفَالِ الْمُشْرِكِينَ؟ " فَإِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَمْ يَقْتُلْهُمْ "، وَأَنْتَ فَلا تَقْتُلْهُمْ، إِلا أَنْ تَعْلَمَ مِنْهُمْ مَا عَلِمَ الْخَضِرُ مِنَ الغُلامِ حِينَ قَتَلَهُ (٢)،

It was narrated from Ibn 'Abbas (رضي الله عنه) that the Prophet (ﷺ) said:

"Whoever sees something in his leader that he dislikes, let him be patient, for no one differs a handspan from the main body of the Muslims (jama'ah) and dies, but his death will be a death of Jahiliyyah."
