The Sufficient (Vol 5) · Hadith 53 (#Ḥadīth #1)

1- عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الْمِنْقَرِيِّ عَنْ عِيسَى بْنِ يُونُسَ عَنِ الأوْزَاعِيِّ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ ﷺ قَالَ إِذَا أَخَذْتَ أَسِيراً فَعَجَزَ عَنِ الْمَشْيِ وَلَيْسَ مَعَكَ مَحْمِلٌ فَأَرْسِلْهُ وَلا تَقْتُلْهُ فَإِنَّكَ لا تَدْرِي مَا حُكْمُ الإمَامِ فِيهِ قَالَ وَقَالَ الأسِيرُ إِذَا أَسْلَمَ فَقَدْ حُقِنَ دَمُهُ وَصَارَ فَيْئاً.

1. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from al-Qasim ibn Muhammad from af-Minqariy from ‘Isa ibn Yunus al-Awza’iy from al-Zuhri from Ali ibn al-Husayn , who has said the following: “If you take a prisoner who is not able to walk and you do not have a carriage to carry him, then allow him to go and do not kill him; you do not know what is the command of the Imam about him.’ The narrator has said that he (the Imam) then said, ‘If a prisoner becomes a Muslim, his life is spared and he is one of us.’”
