أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ قُتَيْبَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ مَوْهَبٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي اللَّيْثُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنْ عَطَاءَ بْنِ يَزِيدَ اللَّيْثِيِّ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَدِيِّ بْنِ الْخِيَارِ عَنِ الْمِقْدَادِ بْنِ الْأَسْوَدِ أَنَّهُ أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّهُ قَالَ
يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَرَأَيْتَ إِنْ لَقِيتُ رَجُلًا مِنَ الْكُفَّارِ فَقَاتَلَنِي فَضَرَبَ إِحْدَى يَدَيَّ بِالسَّيْفِ فَقَطَعَهَا ثُمَّ لَاذَ مِنِّي بِشَجَرَةٍ وَقَالَ أَسْلَمْتُ لِلَّهِ أَفَأَقْتُلُهُ بَعْدَ أَنْ قَالَهَا؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «لَا تَقْتُلْهُ» قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّهُ قَدْ قَطَعَ يَدِي ثُمَّ قَالَ ذَلِكَ بَعْدَ أَنْ قَطَعَهَا أَفَأَقْتُلُهُ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ 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 strikes one of my hands with a sword and cuts it off, then he takes refuge from me behind a tree and says, "I have submitted to Allah"—should I kill him after he has said it? The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Do not kill him." I said, "O Messenger of Allah, he has cut off my hand, and he said that after cutting it off—should I kill him?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Do not kill him, for if you kill him, he would be in the position you were in before you killed him, and you would be in the position he was in before he uttered the word he said."
