كا، الكافي عَلِيٌّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ النَّوْفَلِيِّ عَنِ السَّكُونِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ: بَعَثَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص جَيْشاً إِلَى خَثْعَمٍ فَلَمَّا غَشِيَهُمُ اسْتَعْصَمُوا بِالسُّجُودِ فَقُتِلَ بَعْضُهُمْ فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ النَّبِيَّ ص فَقَالَ أَعْطُوا الْوَرَثَةَ نِصْفَ الْعَقْلِ بِصَلَاتِهِمْ وَ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ص أَلَا إِنِّي بَرِي‏ءٌ مِنْ كُلِّ مُسْلِمٍ نَزَلَ مَعَ مُشْرِكٍ فِي دَارِ الْحَرْبِ‏

Al-Kafi – Ali, from his father, from Al Nowfaly, from Al Sakuny,

From Abu Abdullah-asws having said: ‘Rasool-Allah-saww sent an army to Khas’am. So when they overcame them, they exempted themselves by (performing) the Sajdah. So some of them were killed, and (the news of) that reach the Prophet-saww. So he-saww said: ‘Give to the inheritors half the compensation due to their Prayer’. And the Prophet-saww said: ‘Indeed! I-saww disavow from every Muslim who lodges with a Polytheist in ‘دَارِ الْحَرْبِ’ the battlefield’’.[1]
