Sunan an-Nasai 4709 (Book 45, Hadith 4) #19242
Confirmation of Qasamah by Prophet Muhammad (PBUH)

SUMMARY: The hadith is about Qasamah, a practice that existed during the Jahiliyyah and was later confirmed by the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) in a case of an Ansari who was found slain in a well owned by Jews.

It was narrated that Ibn Al-Musayyab said: "Qasamah existed during the Jahiliyyah, then the Messenger of Allah confirmed it in the case of an Ansari who was found slain in the dry well of the jews, and Ansar said: "The Jews kill our companion"'.
أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَافِعٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا مَعْمَرٌ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنِ ابْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ، قَالَ كَانَتِ الْقَسَامَةُ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ ثُمَّ أَقَرَّهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ فِي الأَنْصَارِيِّ الَّذِي وُجِدَ مَقْتُولاً فِي جُبِّ الْيَهُودِ فَقَالَتِ الأَنْصَارُ الْيَهُودُ قَتَلُوا صَاحِبَنَا

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the practice of Qasamah, which existed during the pre-Islamic period known as Jahiliyyyah. It was narrated by Ibn Al-Musayyab that when an Ansari man was found slain in a dry well owned by Jews, people from his tribe said that it must have been done by them. The Prophet Muhammad then confirmed this practice and made it part of Islamic law. This hadith teaches us to be just and fair when dealing with disputes between two parties, even if one party is more powerful than the other. We should also strive to seek justice for those who are wronged or oppressed regardless of their social status or background.
