4764. Narrated Sa'īd bin Jubair: I asked Ibn 'Abbās رضي الله عنهما about Allāh's saying: "... His recompense is Hell..." (V.4:93) He said, "No repentance is accepted from him (i.e., the murderer of a believer)." I asked him regarding the Saying of Allāh تعالى: “And those who invoke not any other ilāh (god) along with Allāh...” (V.25:68) He said, “This Verse was revealed concerning Al-Mushrikūn (pagans) of the pre-Islāmic period.”(1)

4764 - حَدَّثَنَا آدَمُ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا مَنْصُورٌ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ، قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا، عَنْ قَوْلِهِ تَعَالَى: {فَجَزَاؤُهُ جَهَنَّمُ} [النساء: 93] قَالَ: «لاَ تَوْبَةَ لَهُ»، وَعَنْ قَوْلِهِ جَلَّ ذِكْرُهُ: {لاَ يَدْعُونَ مَعَ اللَّهِ إِلَهًا آخَرَ} [الفرقان: 68]، قَالَ: «كَانَتْ هَذِهِ فِي الجَاهِلِيَّةِ»

    (1) (H. 4762) In Sūrat Al-Furqān, Allāh gives the chance to one who has murdered a believer to repent: "Except those who repent and believe (in Islamic Monotheism), and do righteous deeds, for those, Allāh will change their sins into good deeds, and Allāh is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful." (V.25:70) While in Sūrat An-Nisā, Allāh says: "And whoever kills a believer intentionally, his recompense is Hell to abide therein; and the Wrath and Curse of Allāh are upon him, and a great punishment is prepared for him..." (V. 4:93) Ibn 'Abbās thinks that the latter Verse has abrogated the former. In Hadīth No. 4764, he says that the former Verse was applicable only to Al-Mushrikūn (pagans) before embracing Islām. The latter Verse is concerned with those who have embraced Islām. See Hadīth No.4764, 4765, 4766.
