ahmad:10636Rawḥ > Muḥammad b. Abū Ḥafṣah > Ibn Shihāb > Saʿīd b. al-Musayyibiʿan Abū Hurayrah

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Indeed, Allah laughs at two men, one of whom kills the other, and then both of them enter Paradise." It was asked, "How can that be?" He said, "One of them was a disbeliever, and he killed the other. Then he embraced Islam and fought in the cause of Allah, and he was killed."  

أحمد:١٠٦٣٦حَدَّثَنَا رَوْحٌ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي حَفْصَةَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ شِهَابٍ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِعَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ إِنَّ اللهَ ﷻ يَضْحَكُ مِنْ رَجُلَيْنِ يَقْتُلُ أَحَدُهُمَا الْآخَرَ فَيُدْخِلُهُمَا اللهُ الْجَنَّةَ قِيلَ كَيْفَ يَكُونُ ذَاكَ؟ قَالَ يَكُونُ أَحَدُهُمَا كَافِرًا فَيَقْتُلُ الْآخَرَ ثُمَّ يُسْلِمُ فَيَغْزُو فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ فَيُقْتَلُ

ahmad:7326Sufyān > Abū al-Zinād > al-Aʿraj > Abū Hurayrah Yablugh Bih

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said, "Indeed, Allah (swt) will laugh at two men. One of them kills the other, but both of them will enter Paradise together. Allah (swt) will say, 'He was a disbeliever who killed a Muslim.' Then, the disbeliever became a Muslim before he died, so Allah (swt) entered both of them into Paradise."  

أحمد:٧٣٢٦حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ عَنِ الْأَعْرَجِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ يَبْلُغُ بِهِ

النَّبِيَّ ﷺ إِنَّ اللهَ ﷻ لَيَضْحَكُ مِنَ الرَّجُلَيْنِ قَتَلَ أَحَدُهُمَا الْآخَرَ يَدْخُلَانِ الْجَنَّةَ جَمِيعًا يَقُولُ كَانَ كَافِرًا فقَتَلَ مُسْلِمًا ثُمَّ إِنَّ الْكَافِرَ أَسْلَمَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَمُوتَ فَأَدْخَلَهُمَا اللهُ ﷻ الْجَنَّةَ
