Hadith 4268
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كَامِلٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ ، وَيُونُسَ ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ ، عَنْ الْأَحْنَفِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ ، قَالَ : خَرَجْتُ وَأَنَا أُرِيدُ يَعْنِي فِي الْقِتَالِ ، فَلَقِيَنِي أَبُو بَكْرَةَ ، فَقَالَ : ارْجِعْ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، يَقُولُ : " إِذَا تَوَاجَهَ الْمُسْلِمَانِ بِسَيْفَيْهِمَا ، فَالْقَاتِلُ وَالْمَقْتُولُ فِي النَّارِ ، قَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ هَذَا الْقَاتِلُ فَمَا بَالُ الْمَقْتُولِ ؟ قَالَ : إِنَّهُ أَرَادَ قَتْلَ صَاحِبِهِ " .
Ahnaf bin Qais said: I came out with the intention of (participating in) fighting. Abu Bakrah met me and said: Go back, for I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: When two Muslims face each other with their swords, the killer and the slain will go to Hell. He asked: Messenger of Allah, this is the killer (so naturally he should go to Hell), but what is the matter with the slain ? He replied: He intended to kill his companion.
Hadith 4269
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُتَوَكِّلِ الْعَسْقَلَانِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ ، حَدَّثَنَا مَعْمَرٌ ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بِإِسْنَادِهِ وَمَعْنَاهُ مُخْتَصَرًا .
The tradition mentioned above has also been transmitted briefly by al-Hasan through a different chain of narrators to the same effect.
