Hadith 17
The Book of Fighting [The Prohibition of Bloodshed]
It was narrated that Abu Barzah said:
"Abu Bakr became infuriated with a man." He said: "If you tell me to, I will do it." He said: "By Allah, that is not for any human being after Muhammad [ﷺ]."
أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ حَمَّادٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ مُرَّةَ، عَنْ أَبِي الْبَخْتَرِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي بَرْزَةَ، قَالَ تَغَيَّظَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ عَلَى رَجُلٍ فَقَالَ لَوْ أَمَرْتَنِي لَفَعَلْتُ . قَالَ أَمَا وَاللَّهِ مَا كَانَتْ لِبَشَرٍ بَعْدَ مُحَمَّدٍ صلى الله عليه وسلم .
