وحدثني محمد بن حاتم، حدثنا سعيد بن سليمان، حدثنا هشيم، أخبرنا إسماعيل، بن سالم عن علقمة بن وائل، عن أبيه، قال أتي رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم برجل قتل رجلا فأقاد ولي المقتول منه فانطلق به وفي عنقه نسعة يجرها فلما أدبر قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏"‏ القاتل والمقتول في النار ‏"‏ ‏.‏ فأتى رجل الرجل فقال له مقالة رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم فخلى عنه ‏.‏ قال إسماعيل بن سالم فذكرت ذلك لحبيب بن أبي ثابت فقال حدثني ابن أشوع أن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم إنما سأله أن يعفو عنه فأبى ‏.‏
 'Alaqama b. Wa'il reported on the authority of his father that a person was brought to the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) who had killed another person, and the heir of the person slain had dragged him (to the Holy Prophet) with a strap around his neck. As he turned away Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) said:                      The killer and the killed are (doomed) to fire. A person came to the other person (the heir of the deceased) and he reported to him the words of the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him), and so he let him off. Isma'il b. Salim said: I made a mention of it to Habib b. Abu Thabit and he said: Ibn Ashwa' reported to me that Allah's Apostle (may peace be upon him) had asked him to pardon him, but he refused.
