Hadith #332
Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجٌ وَأَبُو النَّضْرِ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا لَيْثٌ حَدَّثَنِي نَافِعٌ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَرَّقَ نَخْلَ بَنِي النَّضِيرِ وَقَطَّعَ وَهِيَ الْبُوَيْرَةُ فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى { مَا قَطَعْتُمْ مِنْ لِينَةٍ أَوْ تَرَكْتُمُوهَا } إِلَى آخِرِ الْآيَةِ
English Translation
It was narrated from 'Abdullah ibn 'Umar (رضي الله عنهما) — via Hajjaj and Abu al-Nadr, from Layth, from Nafi' — that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ burned and cut down the date palms of Banu al-Nadir — which is al-Buwayra. Then Allah (تعالى) revealed: 'Whatever you have cut down of palm trees or left standing on their trunks — it was by permission of Allah' [59:5] — to the end of the verse.
