Killing Women and Children is Prohibited

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad disapproved of the killing of women and children in battles.

It is narrated on the authority of 'Abdullah that a woman was found killed in one of the battles fought by the Messenger of Allah . He disapproved of the killing of women and children.
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رُمْحٍ، قَالاَ أَخْبَرَنَا اللَّيْثُ، ح وَحَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ، سَعِيدٍ حَدَّثَنَا لَيْثٌ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، أَنَّ امْرَأَةً، وُجِدَتْ، فِي بَعْضِ مَغَازِي رَسُولِ اللَّهِ مَقْتُولَةً فَأَنْكَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ قَتْلَ النِّسَاءِ وَالصِّبْيَانِ‏.‏

EXPLANATIONS:
The Prophet Muhammad taught us that it is wrong to kill women and children in battle. He was a great example for us, as he showed us how to treat others with kindness even during times of war. He taught us that we should not take away the lives of innocent people, no matter what the circumstances are. This hadith shows us that we should always strive to protect those who cannot protect themselves, such as women and children, from harm or danger. We must also remember that Allah will judge each one of us according to our actions on this earth, so it is important for all Muslims to be mindful of their actions at all times.
