عَنْ أَبِي شُرَيْحٍ الْخُزَاعِيِّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَفِي لَفْظٍ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ مَنْ أُصِيبَ بِدَمٍ أَوْ خَبْلٍ وَالْخَبْلُ الْجِرَاحُ فَهُوَ بِالْخِيَارِ بَيْنَ إِحْدَى ثَلَاثٍ إِمَّا أَنْ يَقْتَصَّ أَوْ يَأْخُذَ الْعَقْلَ أَوْ يَعْفُوَ فَإِنْ أَرَادَ رَابِعَةً فَخُذُوا عَلَى يَدَيْهِ فَإِنْ فَعَلَ شَيْئًا مِنْ ذَلِكَ ثُمَّ عَدَا بَعْدُ فَلَهُ النَّارُ خَالِدًا فِيهَا مُخَلَّدًا
Sayyiduna Abu Shurayh Khuza'i (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever is killed or wounded, he has the choice of one of three things: (1) he may take retribution (qisas), or (2) he may accept blood money (diyah), or (3) he may forgive. If he seeks a fourth option, prevent him. If a person chooses one of these three things and then exceeds after that, then for him is Hellfire, he will abide therein forever.
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … Some of the content of this hadith has been mentioned in this verse: {فَمَنِ اعْتَدٰی بَعْدَ ذَالِکَ فَلَہٗعَذَابٌاَلِیْمٌ} “So whoever transgresses after reconciliation, for him there is a painful punishment.” (Al-Baqarah: 178) The pure Shari‘ah has also determined the right of the oppressed; the wrongdoing of the oppressor does not mean that excess should be committed against him.
