حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو كَامِلٍ فُضَيْلُ بْنُ حُسَيْنٍ الْجَحْدَرِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ ، وَيُونُسَ ، عَنْ الْحَسَنِ ، عَنْ الْأَحْنَفِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ ، قَالَ : خَرَجْتُ وَأَنَا أُرِيدُ هَذَا الرَّجُلَ فَلَقِيَنِي أَبُو بَكْرَةَ ، فَقَالَ : أَيْنَ تُرِيدُ يَا أَحْنَفُ ؟ قَالَ : قُلْتُ : أُرِيدُ نَصْرَ ابْنِ عَمِّ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَعْنِي عَلِيًّا ، قَالَ : فَقَالَ لِي : يَا أَحْنَفُ ارْجِعْ ، فَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، يَقُولُ : " إِذَا تَوَاجَهَ الْمُسْلِمَانِ بِسَيْفَيْهِمَا ، فَالْقَاتِلُ وَالْمَقْتُولُ فِي النَّارِ " ، قَالَ : فَقُلْتُ : أَوْ قِيلَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ هَذَا الْقَاتِلُ فَمَا بَالُ الْمَقْتُولِ ؟ ، قَالَ : " إِنَّهُ قَدْ أَرَادَ قَتْلَ صَاحِبِهِ " .
Ahnaf bin Qais reported: I set out with the intention of helping this person (Hadrat 'Ali) that Abu Bakr (RA) met me. He said: Ahnaf, where do you intend to go? I said: I intend to help the cousin of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) , viz. 'Ali. Thereupon he said to me: Ahnaf, go back, for I heard Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying: When two Muslims confront one another with swords (in hands) both the slayer and the slain would be in Fire. He (Ahnaf) said: I said, or it was said: Allah's Messenger, it may be the case of one who kills. but what about the slain (why would he be put in Hell-Fire)? Thereupon he said: He also intended to kill his companion.
