Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنِي أَحْمَدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ، سَمِعْتُ أَبِي يُحَدِّثُ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، قَالَ إِنَّ مِنْ وَرْطَاتِ الأُمُورِ الَّتِي لاَ مَخْرَجَ لِمَنْ أَوْقَعَ نَفْسَهُ فِيهَا، سَفْكَ الدَّمِ الْحَرَامِ بِغَيْرِ حِلِّهِ‏.‏

Translation

Ahmad ibn Yaʿqub narrated to me: Ishaq narrated to us: I heard my father relate, from ʿAbdullah ibn ʿUmar, who said: Among the perilous entanglements from which there is no escape for one who falls into them is shedding forbidden blood without right.
