من الضليع بطن من جذام؛ أغار هو وابنه عوص على دحية الكلبي بوادي شنار عند رجوعه من قيصر بجوائزه وكسوته، فأخذا كل ما معه، فاستنقذه منهما قوم من الضبيب ممن أسلموا على كتاب رفاعة. 1 2 فلما قدم دحية على النبي واستسقاه دم الهنيد وابنه، بعث النبي زيد بن حارثة فقتل الهنيد وابنه. 2

Zayd ibn Haritha's raid on Judham and the Prophet's restitution

When Dihya ibn Khalifa al-Kalbi returned from Caesar, al-Hunayd ibn Us and his son of the Dula' of Judham robbed him in the valley of Shinar; men of the Dubayb, Rifa'a ibn Zayd's clan who had converted, recovered his goods. When Dihya complained to the Prophet and asked for al-Hunayd's blood, the Prophet sent Zayd ibn Haritha with an army, which raided from al-Awlaj at al-Maqis, took property and people, killed al-Hunayd and his son and three others, and captured converts among them. A party of the Dubayb with Hassan ibn Milla rode to Zayd, who had Umm al-Kitab recited and proclaimed their quarter inviolable; they then rode to Rifa'a and three nights on to Medina, where the Prophet read his own letter to Rifa'a, asked three times what he should do about the dead, and sent Ali with his sword to Zayd, who restored everything down to a woman's cushion. Ibn Ishaq has it from men of Judham learned in it.
