إِذَا أَخَذْتَ أَسِيراً فَعَجَزَ عَنِ الْمَشْيِ وَ لَيْسَ مَعَكَ مَحْمِلٌ فَأَرْسِلْهُ وَ لَا تَقْتُلْهُ فَإِنَّكَ لَا تَدْرِي مَا حُكْمُ الْإِمَامِ فِيهِ قَالَ وَ قَالَ الْأَسِيرُ إِذَا أَسْلَمَ فَقَدْ حُقِنَ دَمُهُ وَ صَارَ فَيْئاً.

1. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from al-Qasim ibn Muhammad from af-Minqariy from ‘Isa ibn Yunus al-Awza’iy from al-Zuhri from Ali ibn al-Husayn (a.s), who has said the following: “If you take a prisoner who is not able to walk and you do not have a carriage to carry him, then allow him to go and do not kill him; you do not know what is the command of the Imam about him.’ The narrator has said that he (the Imam) then said, ‘If a prisoner becomes a Muslim, his life is spared and he is one of us.’”
