[Machine] I entered upon Al-Mukhtar and he threw a pillow for me and said, "If it wasn't for my brother Jibril standing up for this, I would have thrown it at you." So I intended to strike his neck, but then I remembered a narration that my brother 'Amr bin Al-Hameq had told me, that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever inviolably protects a believer's blood, it is unlawful to shed his blood." So I am innocent from being a murderer."  

دَخَلْتُ عَلَى الْمُخْتَارِ فَأَلْقَى لِي وِسَادَةً وَقَالَ لَوْلَا أَنَّ أَخِي جِبْرِيلَ قَامَ عَنْ هَذِهِ لَأَلْقَيْتُهَا لَكَ قَالَ فَأَرَدْتُ أَنْ أَضْرِبَ عُنُقَهُ فَذَكَرْتُ حَدِيثًا حَدَّثَنِيهِ أَخِي عَمْرُو بْنُ الْحَمِقِ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَيُّمَا مُؤْمِنٍ أَمَّنَ مُؤْمِنًا عَلَى دَمِهِ فَقَتَلَهُ فَأَنَا مِنَ الْقَاتِلِ بَرِيءٌ
