حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو النُّعْمَانِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْفَضْلِ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ عَنْ أَيُّوبَ عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ قَالَ

أُتِيَ عَلِيٌّ ؓ بِزَنَادِقَةٍ فَأَحْرَقَهُمْ، فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ فَقَالَ: لَوْ كُنْتُ أَنَا لَمْ أُحْرِقْهُمْ لِنَهْىِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ، وَلَقَتَلْتُهُمْ لِقَوْلِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ: «مَنْ بَدَّلَ دِينَهُ فَاقْتُلُوهُ».

Some zindiqs were brought to Ali ᴿᴬ, so he burned them. That reached Ibn Abbas, and he said: Had it been me, I would not have burned them, because of the prohibition of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, but I would have killed them because of the statement of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ: "Whoever changes his religion, kill him."
