Hadith 729
۞
4. With this chain of narrators, from Hussain bin Sa’eed, from Uthman bin Isa, from Sama’a, that he said
I asked him about the saying of Allah, Exalted and Glorious is He: «And the one who kills a believer intentionally, his reward is Hell» (4:93) He said: The one who kills a believer due to his religion, that is the intentional about whom Allah, Exalted and Glorious is He, in His Book: «and He has prepared for him a painful torment.» (4:93) I said: And (what about) a man to whom it occurs something between him and another man, and so he hits him with his sword and kills him. He said: That is not the intentional about whom Allah, Exalted and Glorious is He, spoke.
وبهذا الاسناد، عن الحسين بن سعيد، عن عثمان بن عيسى، عن سماعة، قال
سألته عن قول الله عز وجل: " ومن قتل مؤمنا متعمدا فجزاؤه جهنم " قال: من قتل مؤمنا على دينه فذاك المتعمد الذي قال الله عز وجل في كتابه: " وأعد له عذابا أليما " قلت: فالرجل يقع بينه وبين الرجل شئ فيضربه بسيفه فيقتله؟ قال: ليس ذلك المتعمد الذي قال الله عز وجل.
