أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَشْعَثَ الدِّمَشْقِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُسْهِرٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ وَهُوَ ابْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ أَخْبَرَهُ الْأَوْزَاعِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو سَلَمَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «مَنْ قُتِلَ لَهُ قَتِيلٌ فَهُوَ بِخَيْرِ النَّظَرَيْنِ إِمَّا أَنْ يُقَادَ وَإِمَّا أَنْ يُفْدَى»
