= The second report states that, on the day of Badr, when the Prophet of God had prevailed, he ordered that a little more than twenty of the notables of Quraysh be cast into one of the wells of Badr … Recorded by al-Bukhari 7/234 and Muslim (2875). What al-Bukhari alone transmits is the hadith: “Drowsiness overcame us while we were standing in our ranks on the day of Uhud …,” reported by al-Bukhari 8/171 and cited above. Muslim’s exclusive narration is found in his Sahih 2/161, Book of Salam. Its wording is: Abu Talhah said, “We were sitting in the courtyards when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came upon us and said: ‘What is the matter with you and these majalis al-sa‘adat (gatherings on the elevated road-sides)? Avoid the majalis al-sa‘adat.’ We replied, ‘We are only sitting without any harm intended; we are reminiscing and talking.’ He said, ‘If you insist, then give it its due: lower the gaze, return the greeting, and speak kindly.’” (*) Musnad Ahmad 3/466; 4/44; Tarikh Ibn Ma‘in, no. 694; Tabaqat Ibn Sa‘d 3/451; Tabaqat Khalifah p. 80; Tarikh Khalifah p. 205; Al-Tarikh al-Kabir 8/227; Al-Ma‘arif pp. 149, 326; Al-Jarh wa-l-Ta‘dil 9/99-100; Al-Istiy‘ab 4/1608; Usd al-Ghabah 5/382; Tahdhib al-Kamal no. 1578; Tahdhib al-Tahdhib 12/19; Al-Isabah 11/34; Khulasat Tadhhib al-Kamal p. 443.

I asked him, ‘Where are you going?’ He replied, ‘The Messenger of Allah ﷺ has sent me to a man who married his father’s wife after him, and ordered me to strike off his head.’”
