Narrated Sahl bin Abi Hathmah and Rafi bin Khadij: Muhayyasah bin Masud and Abdullah bin Sahl came to Khaibar and parted (from each other) among palm trees. Abdullah bin Sahl was killed. The Jews were blamed (for the murder). Abdur-Rahman bin Sahl and Huwayyasah and Muhayyasah, the sons of his uncle (Masud) came to the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم. Abdur-Rahman, who was the youngest, spoke about his brother, but the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم said to him: (Respect) the elder, (respect) the elder or he said: Let the eldest begin. They then spoke about their friend and the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم said: Fifty of you should take oaths regarding a man from them (the Jews) and he should be entrusted (to him) with his rope (in his neck). They said: It is a matter which we did not see. How can we take oaths ? He said: The Jews exonerate themselves by the oaths of fifty of them. They said: Messenger of Allah! they are a people who are infidels. So the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم paid them bloodwit himself. Sahl said: Once I entered the resting place of their camels, and the she-camel struck me with her lef. Hammad said this or (something) similar to it. Abu Dawud said: Another version transmitted by Yahya bin Saeed has: Would you swear fifty oaths and make you claim regarding your friend or your slain man ? Bishr, the transmitter, did mention blood. Abdah transmitted it from Yahya as transmitted by Hammad. Ibn Uyainah has also transmitted it from Yahya, and began with his words: The Jew will exonerate themselves by fifty oaths which they will swear. He did not mention the claim. Abu Dawud said: This is a misunderstanding on the part of Ibn Uyainah.
