Sahih

{وَإِنْ طَائِفَتَانِ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ اقْتَتَلُوا فَأَصْلِحُوا بَيْنَهُمَا} فَسَمَّاهُمُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ

“And if two groups of the believers fight each other, then make peace between them” – He called them believers

ذَهَبْتُ لأَنْصُرَ هَذَا الرَّجُلَ، فَلَقِيَنِي أَبُو بَكْرَةَ فَقَالَ أَيْنَ تُرِيدُ قُلْتُ أَنْصُرُ هَذَا الرَّجُلَ. قَالَ ارْجِعْ فَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ " إِذَا الْتَقَى الْمُسْلِمَانِ بِسَيْفَيْهِمَا فَالْقَاتِلُ وَالْمَقْتُولُ فِي النَّارِ ". فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ هَذَا الْقَاتِلُ فَمَا بَالُ الْمَقْتُولِ قَالَ " إِنَّهُ كَانَ حَرِيصًا عَلَى قَتْلِ صَاحِبِهِ ".

Translation

Al-Ahnaf ibn Qays reported: I set out to support this man, and Abu Bakrah met me and said, “Where are you going?” I said, “I am going to support this man.” He said, “Go back, for I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, ‘When two Muslims meet each other with their swords, then the killer and the killed are in the Fire.’ I said, ‘O Messenger of Allah, that is (so for) the killer, but what about the one killed?’ He said, ‘He was eager to kill his companion.’”

Al-Ahnaf ibn Qais berichtete: Ich ging los, um diesem Mann beizustehen. Da traf mich Abu Bakra und sagte: „Wohin willst du?“ Ich sagte: „Ich will diesem Mann beistehen.“ Er sagte: „Kehr um! Denn ich hörte den Gesandten Allahs ﷺ sagen: ‚Wenn zwei Muslime mit ihren Schwertern aufeinandertreffen, so sind der Tötende und der Getötete im Feuer.‘ Da sagte ich: ‚O Gesandter Allahs, das (gilt für) den Tötenden, doch was ist mit dem Getöteten?‘ Er sagte: ‚Er war begierig darauf, seinen Gefährten zu töten.‘“

Ahnef b. Kays şöyle rivayet etti: Şu adama yardım etmek için gidiyordum. Ebû Bekre (r.a.) karşıma çıktı ve “Nereye gidiyorsun?” dedi. “Şu adama yardım edeceğim” dedim. Şöyle dedi: “Geri dön! Çünkü ben Resûlullah'ı ﷺ şöyle buyururken işittim: ‘İki Müslüman kılıçlarıyla karşılaştıklarında öldüren de öldürülen de cehennemdedir.’ Ben de, ‘Ey Allah'ın Resûlü! Bu öldüren (için böyle); ya öldürülenin durumu ne?’ dedim. ‘O da arkadaşını öldürmeye hırslıydı’ buyurdu.”
