“There are no two Muslims who confront one another with their swords, but both the killer and the slain will be in Hell.”  

ابن ماجة:٣٩٦٣ – حَدَّثَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ حَدَّثَنَا مُبَارَكُ بْنُ سُحَيْمٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ بْنِ صُهَيْبٍ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ مَا مِنْ مُسْلِمَيْنِ الْتَقَيَا بِأَسْيَافِهِمَا إِلاَّ كَانَ الْقَاتِلُ وَالْمَقْتُولُ فِي النَّارِ

When two Muslims confront each other with their swords, both the slayer and the slain are doomed to Hell-Fire.  

مسلم:٢٨٨٨b – وَحَدَّثَنَاهُ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَبْدَةَ الضَّبِّيُّ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ عَنْ أَيُّوبَ وَيُونُسَ وَالْمُعَلَّى بْنِ زِيَادٍ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ عَنِ الأَحْنَفِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرَةَ قَالَ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِذَا الْتَقَى الْمُسْلِمَانِ بِسَيْفَيْهِمَا فَالْقَاتِلُ وَالْمَقْتُولُ فِي النَّارِ
