Narrated Ibn Ti'li: We fought along with Abdur Rahman ibn Khalid ibn al-Walid. Four infidels from the enemy were brought to him. He commanded about them and they were killed in confinement. Abu Dawud said: The narrators other than Saeed reported from Ibn Wahb in this tradition: (killed him) with arrows in confinement. When Abu Ayyub al-Ansari was informed about it, he said: I heard the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم prohibiting to kill in confinement. By Him in Whose hands my soul is, if there were a hen, I would not kill it in confinement. Abdur-Rahman bin Khalid bin al-Walid was informed about it (the Prophet's prohibition). He set four slaves free.
