Yahya related to me from Malik from Nafi that Abdullah ibn Umar
said that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him
peace, forbade travelling with a Quran in the land of the enemy.
Malik commented, "That is out of fear that the enemy will get hold of
it."

Yahya related to me from Malik that Zayd ibn Aslam had said that
Ubayda ibn al-Jarrah had written to Umar ibn al-Khattab mentioning to
him a great array of Byzantine troops and the anxiety they were
causing him. Umar ibn al-Khattab wrote in reply to him, "Whatever
hardship befalls a believing slave, Allah will make an opening for him
after it, and a hardship will not overcome two eases. Allah the
Exalted says in His Book, 'O you who trust, be patient, and vie in
patience; be steadfast and fear Allah, perhaps you will profit.' "
(Sura 3 ayat 200).

Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab that a son of Kab
ibn Malik (Malik believed that ibn Shihab said it was Abd ar-Rahman
ibn Kab) said, "The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant
him peace, forbade those who fought ibn Abi Huqayq (a treacherous jew
from Madina) to kill women and children. He said that one of the men
fighting had said, 'The wife of ibn Abi Huqayq began screaming and I
repeatedly raised my sword against her. Then I would remember the
prohibition of the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant
him peace, so I would stop. Had it not been for that, we would have
been rid of her.' "
