حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ، قَالَ: نَا بِشْرُ بْنُ آدَمَ قَالَ: نَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَاصِمٍ الْكِلَابِيُّ قَالَ: نَا مُعْتَمِرُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مُرَّةَ، عَنْ شَقِيقٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ:
مَا مِنْ نَفْسٍ تُقْتَلُ إِلَّا كَانَ عَلَى ابْنِ آدَمَ كِفْلٌ مِنْهُ، لِأَنَّهُ أَوَّلُ مَنْ سَنَّ الْقَتْلَ
