“Whoever suffers from killing or wounding, has the choice of three things, and if he wants the fourth then restrain him. He may kill (the killer), or forgive him, or take the blood money. Whoever accepts any of these (options), then kills (the killer) after that will have the fire of hell to abide therein forever.”

ابن ماجة:٢٦٢٣حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ ابْنَا أَبِي شَيْبَةَ قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَالِدٍ الأَحْمَرُ ح وَحَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ وَعَبْدُ الرَّحِيمِ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ جَمِيعًا عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ عَنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ فُضَيْلٍ أَظُنُّهُ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي الْعَوْجَاءِ وَاسْمُهُ سُفْيَانُ عَنْ أَبِي شُرَيْحٍ الْخُزَاعِيِّ قَالَ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَنْ أُصِيبَ بِدَمٍ أَوْ خَبْلٍ وَالْخَبْلُ الْجُرْحُ فَهُوَ بِالْخِيَارِ بَيْنَ إِحْدَى ثَلاَثٍ فَإِنْ أَرَادَ الرَّابِعَةَ فَخُذُوا عَلَى يَدَيْهِ أَنْ يَقْتُلَ أَوْ يَعْفُوَ أَوْ يَأْخُذَ الدِّيَةَ فَمَنْ فَعَلَ شَيْئًا مِنْ ذَلِكَ فَعَادَ فَإِنَّ لَهُ نَارَ جَهَنَّمَ خَالِدًا مُخَلَّدًا فِيهَا أَبَدًا

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, and Yazid also said, "I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, 'Whoever is afflicted with a wound or madness, then madness is pains. So, it is a choice between one of three things: either to seek retaliation, or to take compensation, or to forgive. If he wants a fourth thing, then take hold of his hands. If he does anything of that after that and then kills, then he will have the Fire, wherein he will abide forever.'"

أحمد:١٦٣٧٥حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ الْحَرَّانِيُّ عَنِ ابْنِ إِسْحَاقَ وَيَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ عَنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ فُضَيْلٍ عَنْ سُفْيَانَ بْنِ أَبِي الْعَوْجَاءِ قَالَ يَزِيدُ السُّلَمِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي شُرَيْحٍ الْخُزَاعِيِّ قَالَ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَقَالَيَزِيدُ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ مَنْ أُصِيبَ بِدَمٍ أَوْ خَبْلٍ الْخَبْلُ الْجِرَاحُ فَهُوَ بِالْخِيَارِ بَيْنَ إِحْدَى ثَلَاثٍ إِمَّا أَنْ يَقْتَصَّ أَوْ يَأْخُذَ الْعَقْلَ أَوْ يَعْفُوَ فَإِنْ أَرَادَ رَابِعَةً فَخُذُوا عَلَى يَدَيْهِ فَإِنْ فَعَلَ شَيْئًا مِنْ ذَلِكَ ثُمَّ عَدَا بَعْدُ فَقَتَلَ فَلَهُ النَّارُ خَالِدًا فِيهَا مُخَلَّدًا

[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, "Whoever is afflicted with a wound or a boil, and the boil is a kind of wound, then he has three options. If he wishes for a fourth option, then you should take hold of his hands between whether he seeks retribution, or forgives, or takes compensation. If he takes anything from that and then goes beyond that, then the Fire is for him, he will abide therein forever."

الدارمي:٢٣٩٦أَخْبَرَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ أَنْبَأَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ فُضَيْلٍ عَنْ سُفْيَانَ بْنِ أَبِي الْعَوْجَاءِ السُّلَمِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي شُرَيْحٍ الْخُزَاعِيِّ قَالَ

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «مَنْ أُصِيبَ بِدَمٍ أَوْ خَبْلٍ وَالْخَبْلُ الْجُرْحُ فَهُوَ بِالْخِيَارِ بَيْنَ إِحْدَى ثَلَاثٍ فَإِنْ أَرَادَ الرَّابِعَةَ فَخُذُوا عَلَى يَدَيْهِ بَيْنَ أَنْ يَقْتَصَّ أَوْ يَعْفُوَ أَوْ يَأْخُذَ الْعَقْلَ فَإِنْ أَخَذَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ شَيْئًا ثُمَّ عَدَا بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ فَلَهُ النَّارُ خَالِدًا فِيهَا مُخَلَّدًا»
