٣٤٤٢ - وَعَنِ الْغَرِيفِ بْنِ الدَّيْلَمِيِّ قَالَ: أَتَيْنَا وَائِلَةَ بْنَ الْأَسْفَعِ فَقُلْنَا لَهُ حَدِّثْنَا حَدِيثًا لَيْسَ فِيهِ زِيَادَةٌ وَلَا نُقْصَانُ فَغَضِبَ، وَقَالَ: إِنَّ أَحَدَكُمْ لَيَقْرَأُ وَمُصْحَفُهُ مُعَلَّقُ فِي بَيْتِهِ فَيَزِيدُ وَيَنْقُصُ، قُلْنَا: إِنَّمَا أَرَدْنَا حَدِيثًا سَمِعْتَهُ مِنَ النَّبِيِّ ، فَقَالَ: أَتَيْنَا رَسُولَ الله ﷺ فِي صَاحِبِ لَنَا أَوْجَبَ يَعْنِي النَّارَ بِالْقَتْلِ، فَقَالَ: «أَعْتِقُوْا عَنْهُ يُعْتِقُ الله بِكُلِّ عُضْوٍ مِنْهُ عُضْوًا مِنْهُ مِنَ النَّارِ». رَوَاهُ أَبُوْ دَاوُدَ وَالنَّسَائِيُّ.

Note 1

Who had incurred, etc.

(1) The statement: “Who had incurred, etc.”: This means he committed a sin that necessitated entering the Fire, meaning intentional killing, due to the words of Allah, the Exalted: And whoever kills a believer intentionally, his recompense is Hell [An-Nisa: 93]. It must be specified that this was after fulfilling the penalty for killing; otherwise, how could freeing a slave suffice for the right of the victim’s guardian, or it is understood that he killed himself. This indicates that, according to us, punishments do not suffice to expiate the crime, for if they did, there would be no need to free a slave afterward. Thus, it is stated in Badhl Al-Majhud. The essence is what is stated in Ad-Durr Al-Mukhtar and Radd Al-Muhtar: The punishment is not purifying according to us; rather, purification is through repentance. If one is punished but does not repent, the sin of the disobedience remains. Many scholars hold that it is purifying, and our clearest evidence is in An-Nahr.
