Sunan an-Nasa'i 4836

It was narrated from Al-Aswad bin Hilal – who met the Prophet (ﷺ) – from a man from Banu Tha’labah bin Yarbu, that:
some people from Banu Tha’labah killed a man from among the companions of the Messenger of Allah. A man from among the companions of the Messenger of the Allah said: “O Messenger of Allah, these are Banu Tha’labah who killed so and so.” The Messenger said: “No soul is affected by the sin of another.” Shu’bah (one of the narrators) said: “That means: No soul is responsible for the sin of anothe4r, and Allah knows best.”

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَتَّابٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنِ الأَشْعَثِ بْنِ سُلَيْمٍ، عَنِ الأَسْوَدِ بْنِ هِلاَلٍ، – وَكَانَ قَدْ أَدْرَكَ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم – عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ بَنِي ثَعْلَبَةَ بْنِ يَرْبُوعٍ أَنَّ نَاسًا مِنْ بَنِي ثَعْلَبَةَ أَصَابُوا رَجُلاً مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ هَؤُلاَءِ بَنُو ثَعْلَبَةَ قَتَلَتْ فُلاَنًا ‏.‏ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏”‏ لاَ تَجْنِي نَفْسٌ عَلَى أُخْرَى ‏”‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ شُعْبَةُ أَىْ لاَ يُؤْخَذُ أَحَدٌ بِأَحَدٍ وَاللَّهُ تَعَالَى أَعْلَمُ ‏.‏
