حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيل، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاق، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ فُضَيْلٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ سُفْيَانَ بْنِ أَبِي الْعَوْجَاءِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَبِي شُرَيْحٍ الْخُزَاعِيِّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَنّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ مَنْ أُصِيبَ بِقَتْلٍ أَوْ خَبْلٍ فَإِنَّهُ يَخْتَارُ إِحْدَى ثَلَاثٍ:‏‏‏‏ إِمَّا أَنْ يَقْتَصَّ وَإِمَّا أَنْ يَعْفُوَ وَإِمَّا أَنْ يَأْخُذَ الدِّيَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَإِنْ أَرَادَ الرَّابِعَةَ فَخُذُوا عَلَى يَدَيْهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَمَنِ اعْتَدَى بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ فَلَهُ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ .

The Prophet صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم said: If a relative of anyone is killed, or if he suffers khabl, which means a wound, he may choose one of the three things: he may retaliate, or forgive, or receive compensation. But if he wishes a fourth (i.e. something more), hold his hands. After this whoever exceeds the limits shall be in grave penalty.
