Hadith 191
۞
Hadith.5159 - It is narrated from Hanan ibn Sadir from Abu Abdullah (as) regarding the saying of Allah (swt), the Almighty and Majestic:
"Whoever kills a soul without [the soul having killed] another soul or [without causing] corruption on the earth, it is as if he had killed all mankind" (Surah Al-Ma'idah 5:32).
Imam (as) said
"It is a valley in Hell; if a person were to kill all of mankind, he would be in it, and if he were to kill just one soul, he would still be in it."
5159 - وَ رُوِيَ عَنْ حَنَانِ بْنِ سَدِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ : فِي قَوْلِ اَللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ
أَنَّهُ مَنْ قَتَلَ نَفْساً بِغَيْرِ نَفْسٍ أَوْ فَسٰادٍ فِي اَلْأَرْضِ فَكَأَنَّمٰا قَتَلَ اَلنّٰاسَ جَمِيعاً
قَالَ
"هُوَ وَادٍ فِي جَهَنَّمَ لَوْ قَتَلَ اَلنَّاسَ جَمِيعاً كَانَ فِيهِ وَ لَوْ قَتَلَ نَفْساً وَاحِدَةً كَانَ فِيهِ".
