4268. It was narrated from Hammad bin Zaid, from Ayyub and Yunus, from Al-Hasan, from Al-Ahnaf bin Qais who said: “I went out, intending to fight, and I was met by Abū Bakrah who said: Go back, for I heard the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ say: “If two Muslims confront one another with their swords, the killer and the slain will be in the Fire.” He said: “O Messenger of Allāh, (I understand about) the killer, but what about the slain?” He said: “He wanted to kill his companion.” (Sahih)

Arabic text

4268 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كَامِلٍ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، وَيُونُسَ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ، عَنِ الْأَحْنَفِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ، قَالَ: خَرَجْتُ وَأَنَا أُرِيدُ - يَعْنِي - فِي الْقِتَالِ، فَلَقِيَنِي أَبُو بَكْرَةَ، فَقَالَ: ارْجِعْ، فَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «إِذَا تَوَاجَهَ الْمُسْلِمَانِ بِسَيْفَيْهِمَا فَالْقَاتِلُ وَالْمَقْتُولُ فِي النَّارِ»، قَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، هَذَا الْقَاتِلُ، فَمَا بَالُ الْمَقْتُولِ؟ قَالَ: «إِنَّهُ أَرَادَ قَتْلَ صَاحِبِهِ»
