Sahih al-Bukhari 4005 (Book 64, Hadith 221)
happened to Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) in the `Umra of Al-Hudaibiya. They said, “When Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)
concluded the truce with Suhail bin `Amr on the day of Al-Hudaibiya, one of the conditions which
Suhail bin `Amr stipulated, was his saying (to the Prophet), “If anyone from us (i.e. infidels) ever
comes to you, though he has embraced your religion, you should return him to us, and should not
interfere between us and him.” Suhail refused to conclude the truce with Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) except on
this condition. The believers disliked this condition and got disgusted with it and argued about it. But
when Suhail refused to conclude the truce with Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) except on that condition, Allah’s
Apostle concluded it. Accordingly, Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) then returned Abu Jandal bin Suhail to his father,
Suhail bin `Amr, and returned every man coming to him from them during that period even if he was a
Muslim. The believing women Emigrants came (to Medina) and Um Kulthum, the daughter of `Uqba
bin Abi Mu’ait was one of those who came to Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) and she was an adult at that time. Her
relatives came, asking Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) to return her to them, and in this connection, Allah revealed the
Verses dealing with the believing (women).
