Bayhaqi 16087 — Retaliation with other than the sword

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو سَعِيدِ بْنُ أَبِي عَمْرٍو، ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، ثنا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ بَحْرُ بْنُ نَصْرِ بْنِ سَابِقٍ الْخَوْلَانِيُّ، ثنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ وَهْبٍ، أنبأ مَالِكٌ، عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ حُسَيْنٍ، أَنَّ عَبْدَ الْمَلِكِ بْنَ مَرْوَانَ، أَقَادَ رَجُلًا مِنْ رَجُلٍ قَتَلَهُ بِعَصًا فَقَتَلَهُ بِعَصًا وَرُوِّينَا عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: إِذَا مَثَّلَ بِهِ ثُمَّ قَتَلَهُ، مُثِّلَ بِهِ ثُمَّ قُتِلَ.
Umar bin Husayn (may Allah have mercy on him) said: Abd al-Malik bin Marwan (may Allah have mercy on him) had retaliation taken from a man for another man, because he had killed him with a stick, so he too was struck (to death) with a stick. And in a narration from al-Sha'bi (may Allah have mercy on him) it is (stated) that if he mutilates and then kills, he too is to be mutilated and then killed.
