[Machine] When Mecca was conquered, Huthayl killed a man from the tribe of Layth in retaliation for a killing that occurred during the pre-Islamic period. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was informed of this, and he mentioned the incident with a similar statement, except that he said, "And whoever is killed as a result, he is considered to have better vision, either to be captured or to be avenged." Abu Amr Al-Adib reported to us that Abu Bakr Al-Isma'ili narrated to us that Abu Ya'la narrated to us that Harun ibn Ma'roof narrated to us that Al-Walid ibn Muslim narrated to us from Al-Awza'i, and he mentioned it with a similar statement, except that he said, "Either to be ransomed or to be killed." This hadith has been recorded in Sahih from the narration of Al-Walid ibn Muslim.
لَمَّا فُتِحَتْ مَكَّةُ قَتَلَتْ هُذَيْلٌ رَجُلًا مِنْ بَنِي لَيْثٍ بِقَتِيلٍ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ بِنَحْوِهِ إِلَّا أَنَّهُ قَالَ وَمَنْ قُتِلَ لَهُ قَتِيلٌ فَهُوَ بِخَيْرِ النَّظَرَيْنِ إِمَّا أَنْ يُقَادَ وَإِمَّا أَنْ يُفَادَى 16042 وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَمْرٍو الْأَدِيبُ أنبأ أَبُو بَكْرٍ الْإِسْمَاعِيلِيُّ ثنا أَبُو يَعْلَى ثنا هَارُونُ بْنُ مَعْرُوفٍ ثنا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ عَنِ الْأَوْزَاعِيِّ فَذَكَرَهُ بِنَحْوِهِ إِلَّا أَنَّهُ قَالَ إِمَّا أَنْ يُفْدَى وَإِمَّا أَنْ يَقْتُلَ أَخْرَجَاهُ فِي الصَّحِيحِ مِنْ حَدِيثِ الْوَلِيدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ
