Banu Jadhimah was one of the
Arabian tribes that interacted with Muhammad . It was "ofTa'if " [ [http://answering-islam.org/Books/Tisdall/Sources/chapt3.htm The Original Sources of the Qur'an [Chapter III ] ]History
Some men from Banu Jadhimah had killed Al-Fakih Ibn Al-Mughirah Al-Makhzumi, uncle of Khalid, and Awf Ibn Abd-Awf, father of Abdul Rahman, before the conquest of Mecca.
When Khalid led an expedition against the Banu Jadhimah, he persuaded them to disarm by acknowledging that they had become Muslims, and then killed some of them. When Muhammad heard of this, he declared to God that he was innocent of what Khalid had done, and sent Ali ibn Abi Talib to pay the survivors compensation. [al-Tabari, Victory of Islam, trans.
