Saeed Bin Jubair said: I asked Ibn Abbas about the verse relating to intentional homicide in Surat AlNisa He said: When the verse Those who invoke not with Allah any other god; nor slay such life as Allah had made sacred; except for just cause was revealed; the polytheists of Mecca said: We have killed the soul prohibited by Allah; invoked another god along with Allah for worship; and committed shameful deeds. So Allah revealed the verse unless he repents; believes; and works righteous deeds; for Allah will change the evil of such persons into good. This is meant for them. As regards the verse if a man kills a believer intentionally; his recompense is Hell He said: If a man knows the command of Islam and intentionally kills a believer; his repentance wil not be accepted. I then mentioned it to Mujahid. He said: Except the one who is ashamed of his sin.
