قَضَى أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ( عليه السلام ) فِي رَجُلٍ شَدَّ عَلَى رَجُلٍ لِيَقْتُلَهُ وَ الرَّجُلُ فَارٌّ مِنْهُ فَاسْتَقْبَلَهُ رَجُلٌ آخَرُ فَأَمْسَكَهُ عَلَيْهِ حَتَّى جَاءَ الرَّجُلُ فَقَتَلَهُ فَقَتَلَ الرَّجُلَ الَّذِي قَتَلَهُ وَ قَضَى عَلَى الْآخَرِ الَّذِي أَمْسَكَهُ عَلَيْهِ أَنْ يُطْرَحَ فِي السِّجْنِ أَبَداً حَتَّى يَمُوتَ فِيهِ لِأَنَّهُ أَمْسَكَهُ عَلَى الْمَوْتِ .
Translation
Ali Bin Ibrahim, from Muhammad Bin Isa, from Yunus, from Zur’at, from Sama’at who said, ‘Amir Al-Momineen<sup>asws</sup> judged regarding a man who was intense upon a man in order to kill him, and the man fled from him, so another man came across him, so he restrained him until the other man came over, so he killed him. So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘The man who killed him would be killed, and the judgement upon the other one who restrained him is that he would be thrown into the prison forever until he dies in it, because he restrained him to the death’.
