"عَنْ القاسمِ بن أَبى برزة أن رجلًا (مُسْلما قتل رجلًا) من أهل الذِّمَّة بالشامِ، فرُفِع إلى أَبى عبيدة بن الجرّاحِ فكتب فيه إلى عمر بن الخطاب، فكتب عمر: إذا كان ذَلك فيه خُلُقًا فَقَدِّمه فاضربْ عُنُقَهُ، وإن كانت هى طِيَرَةٌ طَارَهَا، فَأَغْرِمْه ديتَه أربعةَ آلافٍ".

"From al-Qasim ibn Abi Barzah that a (Muslim man who killed a man) from the People of the Covenant (dhimmis) in al-Sham was brought before Abu 'Ubaydah ibn al-Jarrah, who wrote about it to 'Umar ibn al-Khattab. 'Umar wrote: If it was a premeditated act (khuluqan), then bring him forward and strike his neck; but if it was a sudden act of passion (tayarah) that came over him, then make him pay its blood-money, four thousand."
