Narrated Ziyad ibn Saad ibn Dumayrah as-Sulami: On the authority of his father (Saad) and his grandfather (Dumayrah) (according to Musa's version) who were present in the battle of Hunayn with the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم: After the advent of Islam, Muhallam ibn Jaththamah al-Laythi killed a man of Ashja. That was the first blood-money decided by the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم (for payment). Uyaynah spoke about the killing of al-Ashjai, for he belonged to Ghatafan, and al-Aqra ibn Habis spoke on behalf of Muhallam, for he belonged to Khunduf. The voices rose high, and the dispute and noise grew. So the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم said: Do you not accept blood-money, Uyaynah? Uyaynah then said: No, I swear by Allah, until I cause his women to suffer the same fighting and grief as he caused my women to suffer. Again the voices rose high, and the dispute and noise grew. The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم said: Do you not accept the blood-money Uyaynah? Uyaynah gave the same reply as before, and a man of Banu Layth called Mukaytil stood up. He had a weapon and a skin shield in his hand. He said: I do not find in the beginning of Islam any illustration for what he has done except the one that some sheep came on, and those in the front were shot; hence those in the rear ran away . (The other example is that) make a law today and change it. The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم said: Fifty (camels) here immediately and fifty when we return to Madina. This happened during some of his journeys. Muhallam was a tall man of dark complexion. He was with the people. They continued (to make effort for him) until he was released. He sat before the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم, with his eyes flowing. He said: Messenger of Allah! I have done (the act) of which you have been informed. I repent to Allah, the Exalted, so ask Allah's forgiveness for me. Messenger of Allah! The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم then said: Did you kill him with your weapon at the beginning of Islam. O Allah! do not forgive Muhallam. He said these words loudly. Abu Salamah added: He (Muhallam) then got up while he was wiping his tears with the end of his garment. Ibn Ishaq said: His people alleged that the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم asked forgiveness for him after that. Abu Dawud said: Al-Nadr bin Shumail said: al-ghiyar means blood-wit.
