English translation

4735. It was narrated from 'Abdullâh bin Buraidah, from his father, that a man came to the Prophet ﷺ and said: "This man killed my brother." He said: "Go and kill him as he killed your brother." The man said to him: "Fear Allâh and let me go, for that will bring you a greater reward and will be better for you and your brother on the Day of Resurrection." So he let him go. The Prophet ﷺ was told about that, so he asked him about it, and he told him what he had said. He said: "Pardoning him would be better for you than what he would have done for you on the Day of Resurrection when he said: 'O Lord, ask him why he killed me.'" (Hasan)

Arabic text

4731 - أَخْبَرَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ إِسْحَقَ الْمَرْوَزِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي خَالِدُ بْنُ خِدَاشٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا حَاتِمُ بْنُ إِسْمَعِيلَ، عَنْ بَشِيرِ بْنِ الْمُهَاجِرِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، أَنَّ رَجُلًا جَاءَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ: إِنَّ هَذَا الرَّجُلَ قَتَلَ أَخِي، قَالَ: «اذْهَبْ فَاقْتُلْهُ كَمَا قَتَلَ أَخَاكَ». فَقَالَ لَهُ الرَّجُلُ: اتَّقِ اللَّهَ، وَاعْفُ عَنِّي، فَإِنَّهُ أَعْظَمُ لِأَجْرِكَ، وَخَيْرٌ لَكَ وَلِأَخِيكَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ، قَالَ: فَخَلَّى عَنْهُ. قَالَ: فَأُخْبِرَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَسَأَلَهُ، فَأَخْبَرَهُ بِمَا قَالَ لَهُ، قَالَ: " فَأَعْنَفَهُ أَمَا إِنَّهُ كَانَ خَيْرًا مِمَّا هُوَ صَانِعٌ بِكَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ، يَقُولُ: يَا رَبِّ، سَلْ هَذَا فِيمَ قَتَلَنِي "
