Edited sentence: Khalid  sent out parties of horsemen to round up the rebels.Later, Khaid offered to marry the widow of Malik-perhaps as a form of compensation of her husband's wrongfull death-and she accepted.One such party seized Malik ibn Nuwayrah and his family and brought them in to Khalid.The night was cold so khalid ordered the guards to "warm their prisoners", this, however was an order to kill in the dialect spoken by some of the guards so they killed Malik without Khaild's knowledge.The prisoners were placed under guard.When he learned of this , Khalid informed the Caliph of this, and was pardoned for the chieftan's death since he didn't actually order it
