Original Arabic

حَدَّثَنَا يُونُسُ، حَدَّثَنَا لَيْثٌ، قَالَ: وَحَدَّثَنِي بُكَيْرٌ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: بَعَثَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي بَعْثٍ، فَقَالَ: " إِنْ وَجَدْتُمْ فُلَانًا وَفُلَانًا لِرَجُلَيْنِ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ فَأَحْرِقُوهُمَا بالنَّارِ "، ثُمَّ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حِينَ أَرَدْنَا الْخُرُوجَ: " إِنِّي كُنْتُ أَمَرْتُكُمْ أَنْ تُحْرِقُوا فُلَانًا وَفُلَانًا بِالنَّارِ (١) ، وَإِنَّ النَّارَ لَا يُعَذِّبُ بِهَا إِلَّا اللهُ تَعَالَى، فَإِنْ وَجَدْتُمُوهُمَا فَاقْتُلُوهُمَا " (٢)،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) once sent us with an army and, mentioning the names of two men from the Quraysh, said: "If you find these two, burn them in the fire." Then, when we were about to set out with the intention of departure, the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said: "I had given the order regarding such-and-such men that they should be burned in the fire, but only Allah can punish with fire. Therefore, if you find them, kill them."
