حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ حَدَّثَنَا يُونُسُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْبَغْدَادِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا شَيْبَانُ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ حَدَّثَنَا أَنَسُ بْنُ مَالِکٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ رَجُلًا قَالَ يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ يُحْشَرُ الْکَافِرُ عَلَی وَجْهِهِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ قَالَ أَلَيْسَ الَّذِي أَمْشَاهُ عَلَی الرِّجْلَيْنِ فِي الدُّنْيَا قَادِرًا عَلَی أَنْ يُمْشِيَهُ عَلَی وَجْهِهِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ قَالَ قَتَادَةُ بَلَی وَعِزَّةِ رَبِّنَا
صحیح بخاری · Hadith 4762
Narrated Al-Qasim bin Abi Bazza: That he asked Sa`id bin Jubair, "Is there any repentance of the one who has murdered a believer intentionally?" Then I recited to him:-- "Nor kill such life as Allah has forbidden except for a just cause." Sa`id said, "I recited this very Verse before Ibn `Abbas as you have recited it before me. Ibn `Abbas said, 'This Verse was revealed in Mecca and it has been abrogated by a Verse in Surat-An-Nisa which was later revealed in Medina."
