The Prophet ﷺ said: Faith prevented assassination. A believer should not assassinate.  

أبو داود:٢٧٦٩ – حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حُزَابَةَ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ يَعْنِي ابْنَ مَنْصُورٍ حَدَّثَنَا أَسْبَاطُ الْهَمْدَانِيُّ عَنِ السُّدِّيِّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ الإِيمَانُ قَيَّدَ الْفَتْكَ لاَ يَفْتِكُ مُؤْمِنٌ

A man came to az-Zubair bin al-’Awwam ؓ and said: “Shall I kill ʿAli for you?” He said: “No; how can you kill him when he has the troops with him?” He said: “I will catch up with him and assassinate him.” He said: “No. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Faith prohibits assassination; no believer should resort to that.” Al-Hasan said: A man came to az-Zubair bin al-ʿAwwam ؓ and said: “Shall I not kill ʿAli for you?” He said: “How can you kill him when he has people with him?” (and he narrated a similar report.)  

أحمد:١٤٢٦ – حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ حَدَّثَنَا الْمُبَارَكُ حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ قَالَ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى الزُّبَيْرِ بْنِ الْعَوَّامِ فَقَالَ أَلَا أَقْتُلُ لَكَ عَلِيًّا؟ قَالَ لَا وَكَيْفَ تَقْتُلُهُ وَمَعَهُ الْجُنُودُ؟ قَالَ أَلْحَقُ بِهِ فَأَفْتِكُ بِهِ قَالَ

لَا إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ إِنَّ الْإِيمَانَ قَيَّدَ الْفَتْكَ لَا يَفْتِكُ مُؤْمِنٌ
