It is narrated on the authority of Miqdad b. Aswad that he said. Messenger of Allah, you just see (here is a point): If I encountered a person amongst the infidels (in the battlefield) and he attacked me and struck me and cut off one of my hands with the sword. Then he (in order to protect himself from me) took shelter of a tree and said: I become Muslim for Allah's sake. Messenger of Allah, can I kill him after he had uttered this? The Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) said: Do not kill him. I (the narrator) said: Messenger of Allah, he cut off my hand and uttered this after amputating it; should I then kill him? The Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) said: Don't kill him, for I you kill him, verily he would be in a position where you had been before killing him and verily you would be in a position where he had been before uttering (kalima).
حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا لَيْثٌ ح، وَحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رُمْحٍ - وَاللَّفْظُ مُتَقَارِبٌ - أَخْبَرَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ اللَّيْثِيِّ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَدِيِّ بْنِ الْخِيَارِ، عَنِ الْمِقْدَادِ بْنِ الْأَسْوَدِ، أَنَّهُ أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، أَرَأَيْتَ إِنْ لَقِيتُ رَجُلًا مِنَ الْكُفَّارِ فَقَاتَلَنِي، فَضَرَبَ إِحْدَى يَدَيَّ بِالسَّيْفِ فَقَطَعَهَا، ثُمَّ لَاذَ مِنِّي بِشَجَرَةٍ، فَقَالَ: أَسْلَمْتُ لِلَّهِ، أَفَأَقْتُلُهُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، بَعْدَ أَنْ قَالَهَا؟ قَالَ: رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «لَا تَقْتُلْهُ» قَالَ: فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، إِنَّهُ قَدْ قَطَعَ يَدِي، ثُمَّ قَالَ ذَلِكَ بَعْدَ أَنْ قَطَعَهَا، أَفَأَقْتُلُهُ؟ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «لَا تَقْتُلْهُ فَإِنْ قَتَلْتَهُ فَإِنَّهُ بِمَنْزِلَتِكَ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَقْتُلَهُ، وَإِنَّكَ بِمَنْزِلَتِهِ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَقُولَ كَلِمَتَهُ الَّتِي قَالَ»
  ليث نے ابن شہاب ( زہری ) سے ، انہوں نے عطاء بن یزید لیثی سے روایت کی کہ مقداد بن اسود ‌رضی ‌اللہ ‌عنہ ‌ ‌ نے عبید اللہ بن عدی بن خیار کو خبر دی کہ انہوں نے عرض کی : اے اللہ کے رسول ! مجھے بتائیے کہ اگرکافروں میں سے کسی شخص سے میرا سامنا ہو ، وہ مجھے سے جنگ کرے اور میرے ایک ہاتھ تلوار کی ضرب لگائے اور اسے کاٹ ڈالے ، پھر مجھ سے بچاؤ کے لیے کسی درخت کی آڑ لے اور کہے : میں نے اللہ کے لیے اسلام قبول کر لیا تو اے اللہ کے رسول ! کیا یہ کلمہ کہنے کے بعد میں اسے قتل کردوں ؟ رسول اللہﷺ نے فرمایا : ’’اسے قتل نہ کرو ۔ ‘ ‘ انہوں نے کہا : میں نے عرض کی : اے اللہ ک ےرسول ! اس نے میرا ہاتھ کاٹ دیا اور اسے کاٹ ڈالنے کے بعد یہ کلمہ کہے تو کیا میں اسے قتل کر دوں ؟ رسول اللہ ﷺ نے فرمایا : ’’اسے قتل نہ کرو ۔ اگر تم نے اسے قتل کر دیا تو وہ تمہارے اس مقام پر ہو گا جس پر تم اسے قتل کرنے سےپہلے تھے اور تم اس جگہ ہو گے جہاں وہ کلمہ کہنے سے پہلے تھا ۔ ‘ ‘

sahih-muslim-277

It is narrated on the authority of Usama b. Zaid that the Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) sent us in a raiding party. We raided Huraqat of Juhaina in the morning. I caught hold of a man and he said: There is no god but Allah, I attacked him with a spear. It once occurred to me and I talked about it to the Apostle ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ). The Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) said: Did he profess There is no god but Allah, and even then you killed him? I said: Messenger of Allah, he made a profession of it out of the fear of the weapon. He (the Holy Prophet) observed: Did you tear his heart in order to find out whether it had professed or not? And he went on repeating it to me till I wished I had embraced Islam that day. Sa'd said: By Allah, I would never kill any Muslim so long as a person with a heavy belly, i. e., Usama, would not kill. Upon this a person remarked: Did Allah not say this: And fight them until there is no more mischief and religion is wholly for Allah? Sa'd said: We fought so that there should be no mischief, but you and your companions wish to fight so that there should be mischief.

The news had already reached the Apostle (peace be upon him), so when we came back he (the Apostle) said to me: Usama, did you kill him after he had made the profession: There is no god but Allah? I said. Messenger of Allah, he did it only as a shelter. The Prophet observed: Did you kill him after he had made the profession that there is no god but Allah?

sahih-muslim-279

It is narrated by Safwan b. Muhriz that Jundab b. 'Abdullah al-Bajali during the stormy days of Ibn Zubair sent a message to 'As'as b. Salama: Gather some men of your family so that I should talk to them. He ('As'as) sent a messenger to them (to the members of his family). When they had assembled, Jundab came there with a yellow hooded cloak on him, He said: Talk what you were busy in talking. The talk went on by turns, till there came his (Jundab's) turn. He took off the hooded cloak from his head and said: I have come to you with no other intention but to narrate to you a hadith of your Apostle: Verily the Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) sent a squad of the Muslims to a tribe of the polytheists. Both the armies confronted one another. There was a man among the army of polytheists who (was so dashing that), whenever he intended to kill a man from among the Muslims, he killed him. Amongst the Muslims too was a man looking forward to (an opportunity of) his (the polytheist's) unmindfulness. He (the narrator) said: We talked that he was Usama b, Zaid. When he raised his sword, he (the soldier of the polytheists) uttered: There is no god but Allah, but he (Usama b. Zaid) killed him. When the messenger of the glad tidings came to the Apostle ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) he asked him (about the events of the battle) and he informed him about the man (Usama) and what he had done He (the Prophet of Allah) called for him and asked him why he had killed him. He (Usama) said: Messenger of Allah, he struck the Muslims and killed such and such of them. And he even named some of them. (He continued): I attacked him and when he saw the sword he said: There is no god but Allah. The Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) said: Did you kill him? He (Usama) replied in the affirmative. He (the Holy Prophet) remarked: What would you do with: There is no god but Allah, when he would come (before you) on the Day of Judgment? He (Usama) said: Messenger of Allah, beg pardon for me (from your Lord). He (the Holy Prophet) said: What would you do with: There is no god but Allah when he would come (before you) on the Day of Judgment? He (the Holy Prophet) added nothing to it but kept saying: What would you do with: There is no god but Allah, when he would come (before you) on the Day of Judgment?
