4003. It was narrated that Abû Imrân Al-Jawnî said: "Jundab said: 'So and so told me that the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: The slain will bring his killer on the Day of Resurrection and will say: Ask him why he killed me. He will say: I killed him defending the kingdom of so and so.” Jundab said: “So be careful.” (Sahīh)
3998 - أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ تَمِيمٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجٌ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ أَبِي عِمْرَانَ الْجَوْنِيِّ قَالَ: قَالَ جُنْدَبٌ: حَدَّثَنِي فُلَانٌ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: " يَجِيءُ الْمَقْتُولُ بِقَاتِلِهِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ فَيَقُولُ: سَلْ هَذَا فِيمَ قَتَلَنِي، فَيَقُولُ: قَتَلْتُهُ عَلَى مُلْكِ فُلَانٍ "، قَالَ جُنْدَبٌ: «فَاتَّقِهَا»

[1] This may mean that the sin of the murderer is confirmed, or that the murderer will be made to bear the sins of his victim as a punishment for killing him.
‘Be careful’ means do not kill anyone for the sake of your own or for the sake of someone else’s worldly affairs; otherwise on the Day of Resurrection, you would not know how to defend yourself, or you would be made to bear the punishment for bloodshed, and that ‘so and so’ would be of no avail to you.
