Narrated Ubaidullah Bin Adi Bin AlKhiyar: That AlMiqdad Bin Amr AlKindi; who was an ally of Bani Zuhra and one of those who fought the battle of Badr together with Allah Messenger ﷺ told him that he said to Allah Messenger ﷺ ; Suppose I met one of the infidels and we fought; and he struck one of my hands with his sword and cut it off and then took refuge in a tree and said; I surrender to Allah i.e. I have become a Muslim ; could I kill him; O Allah Messenger ﷺ ; after he had said this? Allah Messenger ﷺ said; You should not kill him. AlMiqdad said; O Allah Messenger ﷺ ! But he had cut off one of my two hands; and then he had uttered those words? Allah Messenger ﷺ replied; You should not kill him; for if you kill him; he would be in your position where you had been before killing him; and you would be in his position where he had been before uttering those words.
