English translation

4728. It was narrated that Wâ'il said: "I saw the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ when the heir of a victim brought the killer, leading him by a string. The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said to the heir of the victim: 'Will you forgive him?' He said: 'No.' He said: 'Will you accept Diyah?' He said: 'No.' He said: 'Will you kill him?' He said: 'Yes.' He said: 'Take him away (to kill him).' When he took him and turned away, he turned to those who were with him, and called him back, and said to him: 'Will you forgive him?' He said: 'No.' He said: 'Will you accept Diyah?' He said: 'No.' He said: 'Will you kill him?' He said: 'Yes.' He said: 'Take him away.' Then the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: 'If you forgive him, he will carry your sin and the sin of your companion (the victim).' So he forgave him and left him, and I saw him dragging his string." (Sahih)

4724 - أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ عَوْفِ بْنِ أَبِي جَمِيلَةَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي حَمْزَةُ أَبُو عُمَرَ الْعَائِذِيُّ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَلْقَمَةُ بْنُ وَائِلٍ، عَنْ وَائِلٍ قَالَ: شَهِدْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حِينَ جِيءَ بِالْقَاتِلِ يَقُودُهُ وَلِيُّ الْمَقْتُولِ فِي نِسْعَةٍ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِوَلِيِّ الْمَقْتُولِ: «أَتَعْفُو؟» قَالَ: لَا، قَالَ: «أَتَأْخُذُ الدِّيَةَ؟» قَالَ: لَا، قَالَ: «فَتَقْتُلُهُ؟» قَالَ: نَعَمْ قَالَ: «اذْهَبْ بِهِ». فَلَمَّا ذَهَبَ بِهِ فَوَلَّى مِنْ عِنْدِهِ دَعَاهُ، فَقَالَ لَهُ: «أَتَعْفُو؟» قَالَ: لَا، قَالَ: «أَتَأْخُذُ الدِّيَةَ؟» قَالَ: لَا، قَالَ: «فَتَقْتُلُهُ؟» قَالَ: نَعَمْ، قَالَ: «اذْهَبْ بِهِ». فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ: «أَمَا إِنَّكَ إِنْ عَفَوْتَ عَنْهُ يَبُوءُ بِإِثْمِهِ وَإِثْمِ صَاحِبِكَ» فَعَفَا عَنْهُ وَتَرَكَهُ، فَأَنَا رَأَيْتُهُ يَجُرُّ نِسْعَتَهُ
