Sunan Nasai 4003 — The Gravity of the Sin of Shedding Blood

أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ تَمِيمٍ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجٌ ، قَالَ : أَخْبَرَنِي شُعْبَةُ ، عَنْ أَبِي عِمْرَانَ الْجَوْنِيِّ ، قَالَ : قَالَ جُنْدَبٌ : حَدَّثَنِي فُلَانٌ ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ : " يَجِيءُ الْمَقْتُولُ بِقَاتِلِهِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ ، فَيَقُولُ سَلْ هَذَا فِيمَ قَتَلَنِي ؟ فَيَقُولُ : قَتَلْتُهُ عَلَى مُلْكِ فُلَانٍ " . قَالَ جُنْدَبٌ : فَاتَّقِهَا .
´It was narrated that Abu 'Imran Al-Jawni said:` "Jundab said: 'So and so told me that the Messenger of Allah [SAW] said: The slain will bring his killer on the Day of Resurrection and will say: Ask him why he killed me. He will say: I killed him defending the kingdom of so and so.'" Jundab said: "So be careful.'"

Brief Explanation
1؎: That is, avoid reaching the point of making such lame excuses; meaning, do not let it come to pass that you have to present such answers before Allah—keep this in mind.
Explanation & Benefits
Hafiz Muhammad Ameen
Urdu marginal note:
“Avoid such an act”—that is, do not kill anyone for the sake of your own or someone else’s worldly interests, otherwise on the Day of Resurrection you will not find any answer (to give), and you will have to bear the punishment for murder, and that “so-and-so” will be of no benefit there.
