Sunan an-Nasai 3967 (Book 37, Hadith 2) #18500
Fighting Idolatry for Acceptance of Islam

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) was commanded to fight the idolators until they accept Islam and follow its teachings.

It was narrated from Anas bin Malik that : The Messenger of Allah SAW said: "I have been commanded to fight the idolators until they bear witness to La ilaha illallah (there is none worthy of worship except Allah) and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah SAW. If they bear witness to La ilaha illallah and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah SAW, and they face our Qiblah, eat our slaughtered animals, and pray as we do, then their blood and wealth become forbidden except for a right that is due, and they will have the same rights and obligations as the Muslims".
أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَاتِمِ بْنِ نُعَيْمٍ، قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا حِبَّانُ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ الطَّوِيلِ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ ‏ "‏ أُمِرْتُ أَنْ أُقَاتِلَ النَّاسَ حَتَّى يَشْهَدُوا أَنْ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ فَإِذَا شَهِدُوا أَنْ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ وَاسْتَقْبَلُوا قِبْلَتَنَا وَأَكَلُوا ذَبِيحَتَنَا وَصَلَّوْا صَلاَتَنَا فَقَدْ حَرُمَتْ عَلَيْنَا دِمَاؤُهُمْ وَأَمْوَالُهُمْ إِلاَّ بِحَقِّهَا لَهُمْ مَا لِلْمُسْلِمِينَ وَعَلَيْهِمْ مَا عَلَيْهِمْ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the commandment given by Allah to Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). He was instructed to fight against those who did not believe in Allah and His Messenger, until they accepted the religion of Islam. This means that if someone does not accept that there is no God but Allah, and that Muhammad is His messenger, then it is permissible for Muslims to fight them. However, once they accept these two beliefs and also face towards the Kaaba during prayer, eat halal food slaughtered according to Islamic law, and pray as Muslims do; then their blood and wealth become protected from harm except in cases where a right has been violated. They will also have the same rights as Muslims do.
