حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ بَكْرٍ السَّهْمِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَاتِمُ بْنُ أَبِي صَغِيرَةَ عَنِ النُّعْمَانِ بْنِ سَالِمٍ أَنَّ عَمْرَو بْنَ أَوْسٍ أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ أَبَاهُ أَوْسًا
إِنَّا لَقُعُودٌ عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فِي الصُّفَّةِ وَهُوَ يَقُصُّ عَلَيْنَا وَيُذَكِّرُنَا، إِذْ جَاءَهُ رَجُلٌ فَسَارَّهُ فَقَالَ: " اذْهَبُوا فَاقْتُلُوهُ "، قَالَ: فَلَمَّا وَلَّى الرَّجُلُ دَعَاهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ، قَالَ: " أَيَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ ؟ " قَالَ الرَّجُلُ: نَعَمْ، يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، فَقَالَ: " اذْهَبُوا فَخَلُّوا سَبِيلَهُ، فَإِنَّمَا أُمِرْتُ أَنْ أُقَاتِلَ النَّاسَ حَتَّى يَشْهَدُوا أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ، فَإِذَا فَعَلُوا ذَلِكَ حَرُمَتْ عَلَيَّ دِمَاؤُهُمْ وَأَمْوَالُهُمْ إِلَّا بِحَقِّهَا

“We were sitting with the Prophet ﷺ and he was narrating to us and reminding us, when a man came and spoke privately to him. He said: ‘Take him away and kill him.’ When the man turned away, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ called him back and said: ‘Do you bear witness that none has the right to be worshiped but Allah?’ He said, ‘Yes.’ He said: ‘Then go and let him go, for I have been commanded to fight the people until they say: La ilaha illallah, then if they do that, their blood and wealth are forbidden to me.’” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3929)
