A man who had killed someone was brought to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and he was brought by the heir of the victim. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to him. 'Will you forgive him? He said: No.' He said: 'Will you kill him? He said: 'Yes.' He said: 'Go away.' Then when he went away, he called him back and said: will you forgive him?' He said: 'No.' He said: 'Will you accept the Diyah? He said: 'No.' He said: 'will you kill him? He said: 'Yes.' He said: 'Go away.' Then when he had gone he said: If you forgive him, he will carry your sin and the sin of your companion (the victim). So he forgave him and let him go. He said: And I saw him dragging his string.
