4355. It was narrated from Ṭalḥah bin Yaḥyā and Buraidah bin 'Abdullāh bin Abī Burdah, from Abū Burdah, from Abū Mūsā, who said: "Mu'ād̄h came to 'Alī while I was in Yemen, and there was a man who had been Jewish, then he accepted Islam, then he apostatized from Islam. When Mu'ād̄h came he said: 'I will not dismount until he is executed, so he was executed.'" One of them said: "And he had been asked to repent before that." (Hasan)
4355 - حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، حَدَّثَنَا الْحِمَّانِيُّ، يَعْنِى عَبْدَ الْحَمِيدِ ابْنَ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ طَلْحَةَ بْنِ يَحْيَى، وَبُرَيْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي بُرْدَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي بُرْدَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى، قَالَ: قَدِمَ عَلَيَّ مُعَاذٌ، وَأَنَا بِالْيَمَنِ، وَرَجُلٌ كَانَ يَهُودِيًّا فَأَسْلَمَ فَارْتَدَّ عَنِ الْإِسْلَامِ، فَلَمَّا قَدِمَ مُعَاذٌ، قَالَ: «لَا أَنْزِلُ عَنْ دَابَّتِي حَتَّى يُقْتَلَ»، فَقُتِلَ، قَالَ أَحَدُهُمَا: وَكَانَ قَدْ اسْتُتِيبَ قَبْلَ ذَلِكَ

The apostate should be given a chance to review his decision and accept Islam again, before a legal judgment is passed in his case.
