Hadith 666
حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ قَالَ: نَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ عَمَّارٍ الدُّهْنِيِّ، وَيَحْيَى الْجَابِرِ، عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ أَبِي الْجَعْدِ، قَالَ: سَأَلَ رَجُلٌ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ: مَا تَقُولُ فِي رَجُلٍ قَتَلَ رَجُلًا مُؤْمِنًا مُتَعَمِّدًا، ثُمَّ تَابَ وَآمَنَ وَعَمِلَ صَالِحًا، ثُمَّ اهْتَدَى ؟ قَالَ: وَأَنَّى لَهُ الْهُدَى ثَكِلَتْهُ أُمُّهُ، سَمِعْتُ نَبِيَّكُمْ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: يَجِيءُ الْمَقْتُولُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ مُعَلَّقًا رَأْسُهُ، وَأَوْدَاجُهُ تَشْخَبُ دَمًا، فَيَقُولُ: يَا رَبِّ سَلْ هَذَا: لِمَ قَتَلَنِي ؟ فَوَاللهِ مَا نَسَخَهَا شَيْءٌ مِنْ بَعْدِ مَا أُنْزِلَتْ: { وَمَنْ يَقْتُلْ مُؤْمِنًا مُتَعَمِّدًا فَجَزَاؤُهُ جَهَنَّمُ خَالِدًا فِيهَا وَغَضِبَ اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَلَعَنَهُ وَأَعَدَّ لَهُ عَذَابًا عَظِيمًا } .
A man asked Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them): What do you say about a person who deliberately killed a believer, then repented, believed, did righteous deeds, and was guided? He replied: From where will he find guidance? May his mother weep for him! I heard your Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: On the Day of Resurrection, the murdered person will come with his head in his hand and his veins dripping with blood, and he will say: O my Lord! Ask him why he killed me? By Allah! Nothing has been revealed to abrogate this verse: __QUR_N__ “And whoever kills a believer intentionally, his recompense is Hell, to abide therein; and the wrath and curse of Allah are upon him, and a great punishment is prepared for him.” __QUR_N__
Hadith 667
حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ قَالَ: نَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ شَيْخًا يَقُولُ لِخَارِجَةَ بْنِ زَيْدٍ: سَمِعْتُ أَبَاكَ هَاهُنَا يَقُولُ: نَزَلَتِ الشَّدِيدَةُ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ، وَالْهَيِّنَةُ الَّتِي فِي الْفُرْقَانِ: { وَلا يَقْتُلُونَ النَّفْسَ الَّتِي حَرَّمَ اللهُ إِلا بِالْحَقِّ وَلا يَزْنُونَ } ... إِلَى قَوْلِهِ { إِلا مَنْ تَابَ } .
Abu Al-Zinad, may Allah have mercy on him, says: I heard a shaykh saying to Kharijah bin Zaid, may Allah have mercy on him: I heard your father Zaid bin Thabit, may Allah be pleased with him, at this very place saying that this severe verse was revealed: __QUR_N__ "And whoever kills a believer intentionally" __QUR_N__, and that lenient verse which is in Surah Al-Furqan: __QUR_N__ "And they do not kill the soul which Allah has forbidden except by right, nor do they commit adultery, except for those who repent" __QUR_N__.
Hadith 668
حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ قَالَ: نَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي نَجِيحٍ، عَنْ كُرْدُمٍ، أَنَّ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ، وَابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ، وَابْنَ عُمَرَ سُئِلُوا عَنِ الرَّجُلِ يَقْتُلُ مُؤْمِنًا مُتَعَمِّدًا، فَقَالُوا: هَلْ يَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ لَا يَمُوتَ ؟ هَلْ يَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ يَبْتَغِيَ نَفَقًا فِي الْأَرْضِ أَوْ سُلَّمًا فِي السَّمَاءِ أَوْ يُحْيِيَهُ . ؟
It is narrated from Kardam, may Allah have mercy on him, that it was asked from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah, Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them), and Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them) about the person who deliberately killed a believer. They replied: Can he escape death? Can he dig a tunnel in the earth or make a ladder to the sky or bring the murdered person back to life?
Hadith 669
حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ قَالَ: نَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ يَحْيَى الْأَبَحُّ، قَالَ: نَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ مِينَا، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: كُنْتُ جَالِسًا بِجَنْبِهِ إِذْ جَاءَهُ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ: يَا أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ، مَا تَقُولُ فِي قَاتِلِ الْمُؤْمِنِ، هَلْ لَهُ مِنْ تَوْبَةٍ ؟ فَقَالَ: لَا، وَالَّذِي لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا هُوَ لَا يَدْخُلُ الْجَنَّةَ حَتَّى يَلِجَ الْجَمَلُ فِي سَمِّ الْخِيَاطِ .
It is narrated from Sa'id bin Mina (may Allah have mercy on him) that I was sitting with Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him), when a man came and said: O Abu Hurairah! What do you say about the killer of a believer? Is there repentance for him? So Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: No! By Him besides whom there is no deity, he will not enter Paradise until a camel passes through the eye of a needle.
Hadith 670
حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ قَالَ: نَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ يَحْيَى الْأَبَحُّ، قَالَ: نَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ مِينَا، قَالَ: كَانَ بَيْنَ صَاحِبٍ لِي وَرَجُلٍ مِنْ أَهْلِ السُّوقِ بِمَكَّةَ لِحَاءٌ، فَأَخَذَ صَاحِبِي كُرْسِيًّا، فَضَرَبَ بِهِ رَأْسَ الرَّجُلِ، فَقَتَلَهُ، وَنَدِمَ، وَقَالَ: إِنِّي سَأُخْرِجُ مِنْ مَالِي، ثُمَّ أَنْطَلِقُ فَأَجْعَلُ نَفْسِي حَبِيسًا فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ، قَالَ: قُلْتُ: انْطَلِقْ بِنَا إِلَى ابْنِ عُمَرَ نَسْأَلُهُ هَلْ لَكَ مِنْ تَوْبَةٍ ؟ فَانْطَلَقْنَا حَتَّى دَخَلْنَا عَلَيْهِ وَهُوَ يَوْمَئِذٍ بِمَكَّةَ، قَالَ: قُلْتُ لَهُ: يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ ... فَاقْتَصَصْتُ عَلَيْهِ الْقِصَّةَ عَلَى مَا كَانَتْ، قَالَ: قُلْتُ: هَلْ تَرَى لَهُ مِنْ تَوْبَةٍ ؟ قَالَ: كُلْ وَاشْرَبْ، أُفٍّ، قُمْ عَنِّي، إِنَّهُ يَزْعُمُ أَنَّهُ لَمْ يُرِدْ قَتْلَهُ، قَالَ: كَذَبَ، يَعْمِدُ أَحَدُكُمْ إِلَى الْخَشَبَةِ، فَيَضْرِبُ بِهَا رَأْسَ الرَّجُلِ الْمُسْلِمِ، ثُمَّ يَقُولُ: إِنِّي لَمْ أُرِدْ قَتْلَهُ، كَذَبَ، كُلْ وَاشْرَبْ مَا اسْتَطَعْتَ، أُفٍّ، قُمْ عَنِّي، فَلَمْ يَزِدْنَا عَلَى ذَلِكَ حَتَّى قُمْنَا .
It is narrated from Sa'id bin Mina (may Allah have mercy on him) that there was a dispute between one of my companions and a man from the market of Makkah. My companion picked up a chair and struck it on that man's head, which caused his death. Then he regretted it and said: "I will give all my wealth in charity and imprison myself in the way of Allah." I said: "Come, let us go to Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) and ask him if there is repentance for you." So we reached him in Makkah. I said: "O Abu Abdur Rahman!" and then narrated the whole incident in detail, and asked: "Do you see any way of repentance for him?" He said: "Eat and drink, uff, get up from before me! He says he did not intend to kill? He is lying! One of you strikes a Muslim on the head with a stick, then says: 'I did not intend to kill'? He is lying! Eat and drink as much as you can, uff, get up from before me!" After that, he did not say anything to us until we got up and left.
Hadith 671
حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ قَالَ: نَا هُشَيْمٌ، قَالَ: نَا الْعَوَّامُ بْنُ حَوْشَبٍ، قَالَ: حُدِّثْتُ، عَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ، أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَقُولُ: قَتْلُ الْمُؤْمِنِ مَعْقَلَةٌ .
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) used to say: Killing a believer is an act that makes blood money obligatory.
Hadith 672
حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ قَالَ: نَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ يَحْيَى، عَنْ عَبَّادٍ الْمِنْقَرِيِّ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ، قَالَ: وَاللهِ لَوْ تَمَالَأَ أَهْلُ الْأَرْضِ وَأَهْلُ السَّمَاءِ عَلَى قَتْلِ مُؤْمِنٍ لَأَدْخَلَهُمُ اللهُ النَّارَ جَمِيعًا
Hasan (may Allah have mercy on him) said: By Allah! If all those in the heavens and the earth were to agree upon the killing of a believer, Allah the Mighty and Majestic would admit them all into Hell.
Hadith 673
حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ قَالَ: نَا هُشَيْمٌ، عَنْ يَعْلَى بْنِ عَطَاءٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، قَالَ: لَزَوَالُ الدُّنْيَا بِأَسْرِهَا أَهْوَنُ عَلَى اللهِ تَعَالَى مِنْ دَمِ امْرِئٍ مُسْلِمٍ يُسْفَكُ بِغَيْرِ حَقٍّ .
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: The destruction of the entire world is lighter in the sight of Allah Almighty than the unjust shedding of the blood of a Muslim.
Hadith 674
حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ قَالَ: نَا خَالِدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ التَّيْمِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي مِجْلَزٍ فِي قَوْلِهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ: { فَجَزَاؤُهُ جَهَنَّمُ } قَالَ: جَزَاؤُهُ جَهَنَّمُ، فَإِنْ شَاءَ غَفَرَ لَهُ .
Abu Majliz (may Allah have mercy on him) said: “﴿فَجَزَاؤُهُ جَهَنَّمُ﴾ That is, its recompense is Hell, but if Allah wills, He may forgive him.”
Hadith 675
حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ قَالَ: نَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي نَجِيحٍ، عَنْ كُرْدُمٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ: أَتَاهُ رَجُلٌ، فَقَالَ: مَلَأْتُ حَوْضِي أَنْتَظِرُ ظَمِيَّتِي تَرِدُ عَلَيَّ، فَلَمْ أَسْتَيْقِظْ إِلَّا بِرَجُلٍ قَدْ أَشْرَعَ نَاقَتَهُ، وَثَلَمَ الْحَوْضَ، وَسَالَ الْمَاءُ، فَقُمْتُ فَزِعًا، فَضَرَبْتُهُ بِالسَّيْفِ، فَقَتَلْتُهُ ؟ فَقَالَ: لَيْسَ هَذَا مِثْلَ الَّذِي قَالَ، فَأَمَرَهُ بِالتَّوْبَةِ، قَالَ سُفْيَانُ: كَانَ أَهْلُ الْعِلْمِ إِذَا سُئِلُوا قَالُوا: لَا تَوْبَةَ لَهُ، فَإِذَا ابْتُلِيَ رَجُلٌ، قَالُوا لَهُ: تُبْ .
A man came to Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them) and said: I filled my reservoir with water and was waiting for my she-camel to drink, but suddenly a man came along with his she-camel, entered the reservoir, and the water spilled out. I became alarmed, got up, and struck him with a sword, killing him. Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them) said: This is not like the deliberate murderer mentioned in the verse with severe warning. Then he ordered the man to repent. Sufyan (may Allah have mercy on him) says: When the scholars gave a fatwa, they would say: There is no repentance for him, but when an incident actually happened to someone, they would say to him: Repent.
Hadith 676
حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ قَالَ: نَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ: قَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ: لَا يَزَالُ الرَّجُلُ فِي فُسْحَةٍ مِنْ دِينِهِ مَا لَمْ يَسْفِكْ دَمًا حَرَامًا، فَإِذَا سَفَكَ دَمًا حَرَامًا نُزِعَ مِنْهُ الْحَيَاءُ .
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) said: A man remains in ease regarding his religion as long as he does not shed anyone's unlawful blood, but when he sheds forbidden blood, then his sense of shame is taken away from him.
