حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ، حَدَّثَنَا الْمُبَارَكُ، حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ، قَالَ: جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى الزُّبَيْرِ بْنِ الْعَوَّامِ، فَقَالَ: أَلَا أَقْتُلُ (١) لَكَ عَلِيًّا؟ قَالَ: لَا، وَكَيْفَ تَقْتُلُهُ وَمَعَهُ الْجُنُودُ؟ قَالَ: أَلْحَقُ بِهِ فَأَفْتِكُ بِهِ. قَالَ: لَا. إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: " إِنَّ الْإِيمَانَ قَيَّدَ الْفَتْكَ، لَا يَفْتِكُ مُؤْمِنٌ " (٢)، ،

Al-Hasan narrated:

A man came to az-Zubair bin al-’Awwam (رضي الله عنه) and said: “Shall I kill `Ali for you?” He said: “No; how can you kill him when he has the troops with him?” He said: “I will catch up with him and assassinate him.” He said: “No. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: Faith prohibits assassination; no believer should resort to that.” Al-Hasan said: A man came to az-Zubair bin al-`Awwam (رضي الله عنه) and said: “Shall I not kill `Ali for you?” He said: “How can you kill him when he has people with him?” (and he narrated a similar report.)
