Al-Kafi 14087

Translation

Humeyd Bin Ziyad, from Al Hassan Bin Muhammad Bin Sama’at and Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, both together from Ahmad Bin Al Hassan Al Maysami, from Aban Bin Usman, from Abu Al Abbas, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah^asws, said, ‘I said to him^asws, ‘I threw something at a man, the likes of which does not kill (but he dies)?’ He^asws said: ‘This is erroneous (killing)’. Then he^asws picked up a small pebble, so he threw it. I said, ‘I threw it at the sheep but it hit a man?’ He^asws said: ‘This is the error in which there is no doubt, and the deliberate is that which he strikes with something, the likes of which could kill’.
