أُسَامَةَ بْنَ زَيْدٍ ، يَقُولُ : " بَعَثَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِلَى الْحُرَقَةِ مِنْ جُهَيْنَةَ ، فَصَبَّحْنَا الْقَوْمَ فَهَزَمْنَاهُمْ ، قَالَ : وَلَحِقْتُ أَنَا وَرَجُلٌ مِنَ الأَنْصَارِ رَجُلا مِنْهُمْ ، فَلَمَّا غَشِينَاهُ ، قَالَ : لا إِلَهَ إِلا اللَّهُ ، فَكَفَّ عَنْهُ الأَنْصَارِيُّ ، وَطَعَنْتُهُ بِرُمْحِي فَقَتَلْتُهُ ، فَلَمَّا قَدِمْنَا بَلَغَ ذَلِكَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَ : يَا أُسَامَةُ قَتَلْتُهُ ، بَعْدَمَا قَالَ لا إِلَهَ إِلا اللَّهُ ؟ قَالَ : قُلْتُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، إِنَّمَا قَالَ مُتَعَوِّذًا ، فَقَالَ : طَعَنْتَهُ بَعْدَمَا قَالَ لا إِلَهَ إِلا اللَّهُ ؟ فَمَا زَالَ يُكَرِّرُهَا ، حَتَّى تَمَنَّيْتُ أَنْ لَمْ أَكُنْ أَسْلَمْتُ قَبْلَ ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ " .
Sayyiduna Usama bin Zaid (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) sent us to the branch of the tribe of Juhaina called Harqa. We attacked them in the morning and defeated them. The narrator says: I and an Ansari came upon one of their men. When we overpowered him, he said: "La ilaha illallah" (There is no god but Allah). The Ansari held back his hand, but I struck him with my spear and killed him. When we returned, the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) had already been informed of this. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "O Usama, did you kill him after he had said 'La ilaha illallah'?" Sayyiduna Usama (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: I said, "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! He only said it to save his life." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "Did you strike him with your spear after he had said 'La ilaha illallah'?" After that, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) kept repeating this statement until I wished that I had not accepted Islam before that day.
