[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent out an expedition that raided a group of people. Among the group, there was a man who deviated from the others. Another man from the expedition followed him, with his sword unsheathed. The deviant man asked, "Who are you people? I am a Muslim." The follower replied, "He struck him and killed him." The news reached the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, who spoke harshly about the incident. While the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was delivering a sermon, he said, "By Allah, the one who...said nothing but seeking protection from being killed, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ turned away from him, along with the people before him, and resumed his sermon." Then he said, "O Messenger of Allah, by Allah, the one who said nothing but seeking protection from being killed, and the people before him, and the people before him, resuming his sermon, and he did not show patience." He repeated this in the third instance, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ went towards him and the signs of anger were apparent on his face. He said, "Verily, Allah has prohibited me from pardoning the one who killed a believer three times."
