Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا يُونُسُ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سَالِمُ بْنُ أَبِي الْجَعْدِ قَالَ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ فَقَالَ يَا ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ أَرَأَيْتَ رَجُلًا قَتَلَ مُؤْمِنًا قَالَ فَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ { جَزَاؤُهُ جَهَنَّمُ خَالِدًا فِيهَا } إِلَى آخِرِ الْآيَةِ قَالَ فَقَالَ يَا ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ أَرَأَيْتَ إِنْ تَابَ وَآمَنَ وَعَمِلَ صَالِحًا قَالَ ثَكِلَتْهُ أُمُّهُ وَأَنَّى لَهُ التَّوْبَةُ وَقَدْ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنَّ الْمَقْتُولَ يَجِيءُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ مُتَعَلِّقًا رَأْسَهُ بِيَمِينِهِ أَوْ قَالَ بِشِمَالِهِ آخِذًا صَاحِبَهُ بِيَدِهِ الْأُخْرَى تَشْخَبُ أَوْدَاجُهُ دَمًا فِي قُبُلِ عَرْشِ الرَّحْمَنِ فَيَقُولُ رَبِّ سَلْ هَذَا فِيمَ قَتَلَنِي.
English Translation
A man came to Ibn Abbas and said: 'O Ibn Abbas, what about a man who killed a believer?' Ibn Abbas said: 'His recompense is Hell, wherein he will abide eternally' — to the end of the verse (4:93). The man said: 'What if he repents and believes and does righteous deeds?' He said: 'May his mother be bereaved! How can he have repentance when the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: The murdered person will come on the Day of Resurrection holding his head in his right hand — or he said in his left hand — grasping his killer with the other hand, his jugular veins gushing blood before the Throne of the Most Merciful, saying: O Lord, ask this one why he killed me.'
