أَخْبَرَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ إِسْحَاق الْمَرْوَزِيُّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنِي خَالِدُ بْنُ خِدَاشٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا حَاتِمُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيل، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ بَشِيرِ بْنِ الْمُهَاجِرِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَبِيهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَنَّ رَجُلًا جَاءَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ إِنَّ هَذَا الرَّجُلَ قَتَلَ أَخِي، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ اذْهَبْ فَاقْتُلْهُ كَمَا قَتَلَ أَخَاكَ ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ لَهُ الرَّجُلُ:‏‏‏‏ اتَّقِ اللَّهَ وَاعْفُ عَنِّي فَإِنَّهُ أَعْظَمُ لِأَجْرِكَ وَخَيْرٌ لَكَ وَلِأَخِيكَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ فَخَلَّى عَنْهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ فَأُخْبِرَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَسَأَلَهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأَخْبَرَهُ بِمَا قَالَ لَهُ:‏‏‏‏ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ فَأَعْنَفَهُ،‏‏‏‏ أَمَا إِنَّهُ كَانَ خَيْرًا مِمَّا هُوَ صَانِعٌ بِكَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ،‏‏‏‏ يَقُولُ:‏‏‏‏ يَا رَبِّ سَلْ هَذَا فِيمَ قَتَلَنِي .

A man came to the Prophet ﷺ and said: This man killed my brother. He said: Go and kill him as he killed your brother. The man said to him: Fear Allah and let me go, for that will bring you a greater reward and will be better for you and your brother on the Day of Resurrection. So he let him go. The Prophet ﷺ was told about that, so he asked him about it, and he told him what he had said. He said: Pardoning him would be better for you than what he would have done for you on the Day of Resurrection when he said: 'O Lord, ask him why he killed me. '
