Sunan Nasai 4838 — Can Anyone Be Blamed For The sin Of Another?
أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ ، عَنْ أَشْعَثَ بْنِ أَبِي الشَّعْثَاءِ ، عَنْ الْأَسْوَدِ بْنِ هِلَالٍ ، عَنْ ثَعْلَبَةَ بْنِ زَهْدَمٍ ، قَالَ : انْتَهَى قَوْمٌ مِنْ بَنِي ثَعْلَبَةَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ يَخْطُبُ ، فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، هَؤُلَاءِ بَنُو ثَعْلَبَةَ بْنِ يَرْبُوعٍ قَتَلُوا فُلَانًا رَجُلًا مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " لَا تَجْنِي نَفْسٌ عَلَى أُخْرَى " .
´It was narrated that Tha'1abah bin Zahdam said:` "Some people from Banu Tha'labah came to the Prophet (ﷺ) when he was delivering a speech and a man said: 'O Messenger of Allah, these are Banu Tha'labah bin Yarbu' who killed so and so' - one of the Companions of the Prophet (ﷺ). The Prophet (ﷺ) said: 'No soul is affected by the sin of another."'
Explanation & Benefits
Hafiz Muhammad Ameen
Your intention was that the killers are others, and these people who are coming are different. Merely because they belong to the same tribe, these people cannot be considered guilty.
