Muhammad: Victory and Death[121] Guillaume, Muhammad, p. 516; Ibn Sad, Classes, vol. 2, 1, pp. 131 f; Wellhausen, Medina, pp. 280 f. Muhammad is said to have been affected by the poison (Sahih Bukhari, vol. 3, pp. 474 f; Sahih Muslim, vol. 3, p. 1194), and even claimed to be dying from the effects of the poison at his death some years later (Guillaume, Muhammad, p. 516; Ibn Sad,
Classes, vol. 2, 2, pp. 249 f; Sahih Bukhari, vol. 5, p. 509). Bishr is said to
have died one year later from the effects of the poison; Ibn Sa`d, Classes,
vol. 2, 2, p. 252. The Christian polemicist al-Kindi refers to this incident in
his famous Apology; see ECMD, pp. 441 f.
[122] Ibn Hisham - Muhammad let her live. Cf. Sahih Bukhari, vol. 7,
p. 449; Sunan Abu Dawud, vol. 3, pp. 1262 f.
[123] It is claimed that the Jews broke the terms of their surrender, and
Muhammad then seized their property and women.
[124] In the battle at Khaybar, which in some aspects resembled an active
seige, the Muslims are said to have suffered from hunger. Cf. Sahih
Bukhari, vol. 5, pp. 372 f. One tradition claims that Mut`a was also
forbidden; Sahih Bukhari, vol. 5, p. 372.

pp. 144 f; Wellhausen, Medina, pp. 278 f; 291 f. Cf. Sahih Bukhari, vol. 5,
pp. 369 f.

Khaybar, see Guillaume, Muhammad, pp. 510 f; Ibn Sa`d, Classes, vol. 2,
1, pp. 131 f; Wellhausen, Medina, pp. 264 f.
[127] Waqidi also gives another version in a tradition which says that
Muhammad sent Muhayyisa b. Ma`sud to Fadak to call the Jews there to
Islam. When the Jews heard of the plight of some of the Jews at Khaybar,
they then agreed to the same terms; Wellhausen, Medina, p. 291.
[128] See p. 246, above.

the terms made with the Jews of Fadak, see Guillaume, Muhammad, p. 523;
