أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى يَعْنِي ابْنَ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ عَوْفِ بْنِ أَبِي جَمِيلَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي حَمْزَةُ أَبُو عُمَرَ الْعَائِذِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَلْقَمَةُ بْنُ وَائِلٍ عَنْ وَائِلٍ قَالَ
شَهِدْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ حِينَ جِيءَ بِالْقَاتِلِ يَقُودُهُ وَلِيُّ الْمَقْتُولِ فِي نِسْعَةٍ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لِوَلِيِّ الْمَقْتُولِ «أَتَعْفُو؟» قَالَ لَا قَالَ «تَأْخُذُ الدِّيَةَ؟» قَالَ لَا قَالَ «فَتَقْتُلُهُ» قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ «اذْهَبْ» فَلَمَّا ذَهَبَ فَوَلَّى مِنْ عِنْدِهِ دَعَاهُ فَقَالَ «أَتَعْفُو؟» قَالَ لَا قَالَ «أَتَأْخُذُ الدِّيَةَ؟» قَالَ لَا قَالَ «فَتَقْتُلُهُ؟» قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ «اذْهَبْ بِهِ» فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ «أَمَا إِنَّكَ إِنْ عَفَوْتَ عَنْهُ يَبُوءُ بِإِثْمِهِ وَإِثْمِ صَاحِبِكَ» فَعَفَا عَنْهُ وَتَرَكَهُ فَأَنَا رَأَيْتُهُ يَجُرُّ نِسْعَتَهُ [418] 5935 أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا جَامِعُ بْنُ مَطَرٍ الْحَبَطِيُّ عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ بْنِ وَائِلٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ مِثْلَهُ قَالَ يَحْيَى وَهَذَا أَحْسَنُ مِنْهُ

✧ I witnessed the Messenger of Allah ﷺ when the killer was brought, led by the guardian of the slain man with a leather strap. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to the guardian of the slain man: “Will you forgive?” He said: “No.” He said: “Will you take the blood money?” He said: “No.” He said: “Then you will kill him?” He said: “Yes.” He said: “Go.” When he went and turned away from him, he called him and said: “Will you forgive?” He said: “No.” He said: “Will you take the blood money?” He said: “No.” He said: “Then you will kill him?” He said: “Yes.” He said: “Go with him.” The Messenger of Allah ﷺ then said: “Indeed, if you forgive him, he will bear his own sin and the sin of your companion.” So he forgave him and let him go. I saw him dragging his strap. [418] 5935 Muḥammad b. Bashshār informed us: Yaḥyā narrated to us: Jāmiʿ b. Maṭar al-Ḥabaṭī narrated to us, from ʿAlqamah b. Wāʾil, from his father, from the Prophet ﷺ, something similar. Yaḥyā said: “This is better than it.”
