حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ سَعِيدِ بْنِ كَثِيرِ بْنِ دِينَارٍ الْحِمْصِيُّ , حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ الْوَهْبِيُّ , حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ الْمَاجِشُونُ , عَنْ عَبْدِ الْوَاحِدِ بْنِ أَبِي عَوْنٍ , عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ , عَنْ حَابِسٍ الْيَمَانِيِّ , عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرٍ الصِّدِّيقِ , قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " مَنْ صَلَّى الصُّبْحَ فَهُوَ فِي ذِمَّةِ اللَّهِ , فَلَا تُخْفِرُوا اللَّهَ فِي عَهْدِهِ , فَمَنْ قَتَلَهُ , طَلَبَهُ اللَّهُ حَتَّى يَكُبَّهُ فِي النَّارِ عَلَى وَجْهِهِ " .
´It was narrated from Abu Bakr Siddiq that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:` “Whoever offers the morning prayer, he is under the protection of Allah, so do not betray Allah by betraying those who are under His protection. Whoever kills him, Allah will seek him out until He throws him on his face into Hell.”
Explanation & Benefits
Maulana Ataullah Sajid
Benefits and Issues:
➊
If a leader or king grants someone protection, then causing harm to that person is considered an insult or rebellion against the leader or king. In the same way, a Muslim who is performing prayer is under Allah’s protection; therefore, to harm or kill such a person is tantamount to insolence and rebellion against the majesty of Allah, which is an unforgivable crime.
➋
A person who does not pray does not receive this protection from Allah.
➌
The punishment for the killer of a Muslim is Hellfire, but if the heirs of the murdered person accept blood money (diyah) or, out of kindness, forgive the killer, then the punishment for such a Muslim killer will be waived.
➍
Those who commit major sins (kabirah) will enter Hellfire, but after receiving punishment according to their sins, they will eventually be released.
