Sunan an-Nasa'i, 4730

It was narrated from Ans bin Malik that a man brought the killer of his kinsman to the Messenger of Allah and the Prophet said:"Forgive him." But he refused. He said: "Take the Diyah," but he refused. He said: "Go and kill him then, for you are just like him." So he went away, but some people caught up with the man and told him that the Messenger of Allah had said: "Messenger of Allah had said: "Kill him for you are just like him." So he let him go, and the man passed by me dragging his string

Rapporté par Anas bin Malik : Un homme a amené le meurtrier de son proche devant le Messager d’Allah ﷺ et le Prophète a dit : « Pardonne-lui. » Mais il a refusé. Il a dit : « Prends le diyah », mais il a refusé. Il a dit : « Va et tue-le alors, car tu es comme lui. » Il est donc parti, mais des gens ont rattrapé l’homme et lui ont dit que le Messager d’Allah avait dit : « Tue-le, car tu es comme lui. » Alors il l’a relâché, et l’homme est passé devant moi en traînant sa corde
