حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ أَخْبَرَنِي ابْنُ شِهَابٍ عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ اللَّيْثِيِّ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَدِيِّ بْنِ الْخِيَارِ أَنَّهُ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي أَنَّ الْمِقْدَادَ أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّهُ قَالَ
يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، أَرَأَيْتَ إِنْ لَقِيتُ رَجُلًا مِنَ الْكُفَّارِ فَقَاتَلَنِي، فَاخْتَلَفْنَا ضَرْبَتَيْنِ، فَضَرَبَ إِحْدَى يَدَيَّ بِالسَّيْفِ فَقَطَعَهَا، ثُمَّ لَاذَ مِنِّي بِشَجَرَةٍ، فَقَالَ: أَسْلَمْتُ لِلهِ، أُقَاتِلُهُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ بَعْدَ أَنْ قَالَهَا ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: لَا تَقْتُلْهُ، قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، إِنَّهُ قَطَعَ إِحْدَى يَدَيَّ، ثُمَّ قَالَ ذَلِكَ بَعْدَ مَا قَطَعَهَا، أُقَاتِلُهُ ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: لَا تَقْتُلْهُ، فَإِنْ قَتَلْتَهُ فَإِنَّهُ بِمَنْزِلَتِكَ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَقْتُلَهُ، وَأَنْتَ بِمَنْزِلَتِهِ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَقُولَ كَلِمَتَهُ الَّتِي قَالَ

✧ O Messenger of Allah, what do you think if I meet a man from the disbelievers and he fights me, and we exchange two blows, and he strikes one of my hands with the sword and cuts it off, then he takes refuge from me by a tree and says, ‘I have submitted to Allah’? Should I fight him, O Messenger of Allah, after he has said it? The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, “Do not kill him.” I said, “O Messenger of Allah, he cut off one of my hands, then said that after cutting it. Should I fight him?” The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, “Do not kill him. If you kill him, then he is in the position you were in before you killed him, and you are in his position before he said his word which he said.”

machine translationAl-Zuhrī narrates it, and there is disagreement about him. Ṣāliḥ b. Kaysān, Isḥāq b. Rāshid, the nephew of al-Zuhrī, Ibn Jurayj, al-Layth b. Saʿd, al-Nuʿmān b. Rāshid, ʿUqayl b. Khālid, ʿAbd al-Ḥamīd b. Jaʿfar, Usāmah b. Zayd and ʿAbd al-Raḥmān b. Isḥāq narrated it from al-Zuhrī, from ʿAṭāʾ b. Yazīd, from ʿUbaydullāh b. ʿAdī b. al-Khiyār, from al-Miqdād b. al-Aswad. Al-Awzāʿī narrated it from Ibrāhīm b. Murrah, from al-Zuhrī, and there is disagreement about him as well. Abū Isḥāq al-Fazārī, Muḥammad b. Shuʿayb, Muḥammad b. Ḥimyar and al-Walīd b. Mazyad narrated it from al-Awzāʿī, from Ibrāhīm b. Murrah, from al-Zuhrī, from ʿUbaydullāh b. ʿAdī b. al-Khiyār, from al-Miqdād; they did not mention ʿAṭāʾ b. Yazīd in it. There is disagreement about al-Walīd b. Muslim: Abū al-Walīd al-Qurashī narrated it from al-Walīd, from al-Awzāʿī and al-Layth b. Saʿd, from al-Zuhrī, from ʿUbaydullāh b. ʿAdī, from al-Miqdād; he did not mention ʿAṭāʾ b. Yazīd and omitted Ibrāhīm b. Murrah. ʿĪsā b. Musāwir contradicted him and narrated it from al-Walīd, from al-Awzāʿī, from al-Zuhrī, from Ḥumayd b. ʿAbd al-Raḥmān, from ʿUbaydullāh b. ʿAdī, from al-Miqdād; he did not mention Ibrāhīm b. Murrah in it, and put Ḥumayd b. ʿAbd al-Raḥmān in the place of ʿAṭāʾ b. Yazīd. Al-Firyābī narrated it from al-Awzāʿī, from Ibrāhīm b. Murrah, from al-Zuhrī, as a mursal report from al-Miqdād. The correct one is the version of Ṣāliḥ b. Kaysān and those who followed him.
