أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو يَعْلَى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي بَكْرٍ الْمُقَدَّمِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ أَبِي الصِّدِّيقِ عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ
«كَانَ فِيمَنْ كَانَ قَبْلَكُمْ رَجُلٌ قَتَلَ تِسْعَةً وَتِسْعِينَ نَفْسًا فَسَأَلَ عَنْ أَعْلَمِ أَهْلِ الْأَرْضِ فَدُلَّ عَلَى رَاهِبٍ فَأَتَاهُ فقَالَ إِنَّهُ قَتَلَ تِسْعَةً وَتِسْعِينَ نَفْسًا فَهَلْ لَهُ مِنْ تَوْبَةٍ؟ قَالَ لَا فَقَتَلَهُ وَكَمَّلَ بِهِ مِائَةً ثُمَّ سَأَلَ عَنْ أَعْلَمِ أَهْلِ الْأَرْضِ فَدُلَّ عَلَى رَجُلٍ فقَالَ أَنَّهُ قَتَلَ مِئَةً فَهَلْ لَهُ تَوْبَةٌ؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ مَنْ يَحُولُ بَيْنَكَ وَبَيْنَ التَّوْبَةِ؟ ائْتِ أَرْضَ كَذَا وَكَذَا فَإِنَّ بِهَا نَاسًا يَعْبُدُونَ اللَّهَ فَاعْبُدِ اللَّهَ وَلَا تَرْجِعْ إِلَى أَرْضِكَ فَإِنَّهَا أَرْضُ سُوءٍ فَانْطَلَقَ حَتَّى إِذَا انْتَصَفَ الطَّرِيقَ أَتَاهُ الْمَوْتُ فَاخْتَصَمَتْ فِيهِ مَلَائِكَةُ الرَّحْمَةِ وَمَلَائِكَةُ الْعَذَابِ فَقَالَتْ مَلَائِكَةُ الرَّحْمَةِ جَاءَنَا تَائِبًا مُقْبِلًا بِقَلْبِهِ إِلَى اللَّهِ جَلَّ وَعَلَا وَقَالَتْ مَلَائِكَةُ الْعَذَابِ إِنَّهُ لَمْ يَعْمَلْ خَيْرًا قَطُّ فَأَتَاهُ مَلَكٌ فِي صُورَةِ آدَمِيٍّ فَجَعَلُوهُ بَيْنَهُمْ فقَالَ قِيسُوا مَا بَيْنَ الْأَرْضَيْنِ أَيُّهُمَا كَانَ أَقْرَبَ فَهِيَ لَهُ فَقَاسُوهُ فَوَجَدُوهُ أَدْنَى إِلَى الْأَرْضِ الَّتِي أَرَادَ فَقَبَضَتْهُ بِهَا مَلَائِكَةُ الرَّحْمَةِ»

✧ “Among those before you there was a man who killed ninety-nine souls. He asked about the most learned person on earth and was directed to a monk. He came to him and said: He has killed ninety-nine souls—is there any repentance for him? The monk said: No. So he killed him and completed a hundred with him. Then he asked about the most learned person on earth and was directed to a man. He said: He has killed a hundred souls—is there any repentance for him? The man said: Yes, who can stand between you and repentance? Go to such-and-such a land, for there are people there who worship Allah. Worship Allah with them and do not return to your land, for it is an evil land. So he set out until, when he was halfway along the road, death came to him. The angels of mercy and the angels of punishment disputed over him. The angels of mercy said: He came to us repentant, turning his heart to Allah, Mighty and Exalted. The angels of punishment said: He has never done any good at all. An angel came in the form of a human being and they made him judge between them. He said: Measure the distance between the two lands; to whichever he is closer, he belongs to it. So they measured and found him closer to the land he was heading for, and the angels of mercy took him.”
