As-Sa‘b b. Jaththama told that God’s Messenger was asked about the polytheists whose settlements were attacked at night when some of their women and offspring were smitten, and replied that they were of their number. A version has it that they were regarded in the same way as their parents. (Bukhari and Muslim.)
وَعَن الصَّعبِ بنِ جِثَّامةَ قَالَ: سُئِلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عنْ أهلِ الدَّارِ يَبِيتُونَ مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ فَيُصَابَ مِنْ نِسَائِهِمْ وَذَرَارِيِّهِمْ قَالَ: «هُمْ مِنْهُمْ» . وَفِي رِوَايَةٍ: «هُمْ مِنْ آبائِهم»
