Message: <blockquote data-quote="sirajstc" data-source="post: 11951936" data-attributes="member: 91140">"A Ruthless Torturer"Accusation No.5 "A Ruthless Torturer"   The person  Ali Sina is referring to over here (the person who was tortured), is  Kinana al-Rabi, who was allegedly tortured in Khaibar because the Holy  Prophet (S), wanted to know where the treasury was. Refuting this  baseless story, Allama Shibli Nu'Mani writes: "While  describing the battle of Khaibar, the history writers have committed a  serious blunder in reporting a totally baseless report, which has become  a common place. It is said that the Prophet (Peace and blessings of  Allah be upon him) had granted amnesty to the Jews on condition that  they would not hide anything. When Kinana Ibn Rabi' refused to give any  clue to the hidden treasures, the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah  be upon him) ordered Zubair to adopt stern measures to force a  disclosure. Zubair branded his chest with a hot flint again and again,  till he was on the point of death. At last he ordered Kinana to be put  to death and all the Jews were made slaves. The  whole truth in the story is that Kinana was put to death. But it was  not for his refusal to give a clue to the hidden treasure.  He was put to death because he had killed Mahmud Ibn Maslama (also  Muslima). Tabari had reported it in unambiguous words: "Then the Holy  Prophet (Peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) gave Kinana to  Muhammad Ibn Maslama (Muslima), " and he put him to death in retaliation  of the murder of his own brother, Mahmud Ibn Maslama (Muslima)." In  the rest of the report, both Tabari and Ibn Hisham have quoted it from  Ibn Ishaq, but Ibn Ishaq does not name any narrator. Traditionalists, in  books on Rijal, have explicitly stated that Ibn Ishaq used to borrow  from the Jews stories concerning the battle of the Prophet (Peace and  blessings of Allah be upon him). As Ibn Ishaq does not mention the name  of any narrator whatsoever in this case, there is every likelihood of  the story of having been passed on by the Jews. That a man  should be tortured with burns on his chest by the sparks of a flint is  too heinous a deed for a Prophet (Peace and blessings of Allah be upon  him) who had earned for himself the title of Rahma'lil Alamin (Mercy for  all the worlds). After all, did he not let the woman who had sought to  poison him go scot free? Who would expect such a soul to order human  body to be so burnt for the sake of a few coins. As a matter  of fact, Kinana Ibn Rabi Ibn al-Huquaiq had been granted his life on the  condition that he would never break faith or make false statements. He  had also given his word, according to one of the reports, that if he did  anything to the contrary, he could be put to death. Kinana played  false, and the immunity granted to him was withdrawn. He killed Mahmud  Ibn Maslama (Muslima) and had, therefore to suffer for it, as we have  already stated on the authority of Tabari." (Source:  Sirat Un Nabi by Allama Shibli Nu'Mani rendered into English by M.  Tayyib Bakhsh Budayuni, Vol. II, p. 173-174, Kazi Publications Lahore  Pakistan)  </blockquote>
