English Translation

Yūnus narrated to us, Ḥammād — meaning Ibn Salamah — narrated to us, from Yūnus ibn ʿUbayd, from Ḥumayd ibn Hilāl who said: A man brought Bishr ibn ʿĀṣim and me together, and he narrated to me from ʿUqbah ibn Mālik: that a military expedition of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ raided a group of people at dawn by a water source. A man from the people of the water came out, and a Muslim man charged at him. The man said: "I am a Muslim!" but he killed him. When they returned and informed the Prophet ﷺ of that, the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ stood as a preacher, praised Allāh and extolled Him, then said: "As for what follows: what is the matter with a Muslim who kills a man while he is saying 'I am a Muslim'?" The man said: "He only said it seeking protection." The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ turned his face away and extended his right hand, saying: "Allāh has refused me regarding the one who killed a Muslim" — three times.
