(9) باب ذِكْرِ اخْتِلاَفِ طَلْحَةَ بْنِ مُصَرِّفٍ وَمُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ صَالِحٍ عَلَى يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ فِي هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ
It was narrated that Ibn 'Abbas said, :
Concerning the statement of Allah, the Most High: The recompense of those who wage war against Allah and His Messenger. "This Verse was revealed concerning the idolators. Whoever among them repents before he is captured, you have no way against him. This Verse does not apply to the Muslims. Whoever kills, spreads mischief in the land, and wages war against Allah and His Messenger, then joins the disbelievers before he can be caught, there is nothing to prevent the Hadd punishment being carried out on him because of what he did."
