حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ الْحَلَبِيُّ ثنا حَجَّاجُ بْنُ أَبِي مَنِيعٍ الرُّصَافِيُّ ثنا جَدِّي عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ ثنا عَطَاءُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ الْجُنْدَعِيُّ أَنَّ عُبَيْدَ اللهِ بْنَ عَدِيِّ بْنِ الْخِيَارِ
أَخْبَرَهُ عَنِ الْمِقْدَادِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو فَارِسِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ كِنْدَةَ وَهُوَ حَلِيفٌ لِبَنِي زُهْرَةَ قَالَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَرَأَيْتَ إِنْ لَقِيتُ رَجُلًا مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ فَاخْتَلَفْتُ أَنَا وَهُوَ ضَرْبَتَيْنِ فَأَبَانَ إِحْدَى يَدَيَّ فَضَرَبْتُهُ ثُمَّ قَدَرْتُ عَلَى قَتْلِهِ فَقَالَ حِينَ أَرَدْتُ أَنْ أَهْوِيَ إِلَيْهِ بِسِلَاحِي لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ أَقْتُلُهُ أَمْ أَتْرُكُهُ؟ قَالَ «بَلِ اتْرُكْهُ» قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ وَإِنْ قَطَعَ إِحْدَى يَدَيَّ؟ قَالَ «وَإِنْ فَعَلَ» فَرَاجَعْتُهُ فَقَالَ إِنْ قَتَلْتَهُ بَعْدَ أَنْ يَقُولَ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ فَأَنْتَ بِمَنْزِلَتِهِ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَقُولَهَا وَهُوَ بِمَنْزِلَتِكَ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَقْتُلَهُ

- Abū Usāmah al-Ḥalabī
✧ He reported to him from al-Miqdad b. ʿAmr, the horseman of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and he was a man from Kindah and an ally of Banu Zuhrah. He said: I said: O Messenger of Allah, what do you think if I meet a man from the polytheists and we exchange two blows, and he cuts off one of my hands, then I strike him and later am able to kill him, but when I intend to bring my weapon down upon him he says: “There is no god but Allah.” Should I kill him or leave him? He said: “Rather leave him.” I said: O Messenger of Allah, even if he cut off one of my hands? He said: “Even if he did.” I repeated it, and he said: “If you kill him after he says: ‘There is no god but Allah,’ then you are in his position before he said it, and he is in your position before you kill him.”
