حَدَّثَنَا الْحُمَيْدِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ حَدَّثَنَا الأَعْمَشُ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مُرَّةَ عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ:

«لَيْسَ مِنْ نَفْسٍ تُقْتَلُ ظُلْمًا إِلاَّ كَانَ عَلَى ابْنِ آدَمَ الأَوَّلِ كِفْلٌ مِنْهَا»، وَرُبَّمَا قَالَ سُفْيَانُ «مِنْ دَمِهَا» لأَنَّهُ أَوَّلُ مَنْ سَنَّ الْقَتْلَ أَوَّلاً.

Chain of narrators
  1. al-Ḥumaydī
  2. Sufyān
  3. al-Aʿmash
  4. ʿAbdullāh b. Murrah
  5. Masrūq
  6. ʿAbdullāh
  7. al-Nabī ﷺ

The Prophet ﷺ said, "None is killed unjustly, but the first son of Adam will have a part of its burden," and perhaps Sufyan said, "a part of its blood" because he was the first to establish the tradition of murdering.
