Arabic hadith text

وَعَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «مَنْ أَعَانَ عَلَى قَتْلِ مُؤْمِنٍ شَطْرَ كَلِمَةٍ لَقِيَ اللَّهَ مَكْتُوبٌ بينَ عينيهِ آيسٌ من رَحْمَة الله» . رَوَاهُ ابْن مَاجَه

Translation

Abu Hurayrah reported that the Messenger of God said: ‘Whoever assists in killing a believer by even half a word will meet God with despairing of God’s mercy written between his eyes.’ Ibn Majah transmitted it.

Translation notes

  • The English witness explains half a word in a footnote; that explanation is absent from the Arabic text.
