Chapter on Prohibition of Shedding Blood and Taking Wealth Unlawfully, the Prohibition of Engaging in the Impermissible, and Repentance From Killing Whether Intentional or Accidental
وَ رَوَى جَابِرٌ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ: "أَوَّلُ مَا يَحْكُمُ اَللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ فِيهِ، يَوْمَ اَلْقِيَامَةِ اَلدِّمَاءُ فَيُوقَفُ اِبْنَا آدَمَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ فَيُفْصَلُ بَيْنَهُمَا ثُمَّ اَلَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمَا مِنْ أَصْحَابِ اَلدِّمَاءِ حَتَّى لاَ يَبْقَى مِنْهُمْ أَحَدٌ مِنَ اَلنَّاسِ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ حَتَّى يَأْتِيَ اَلْمَقْتُولُ بِقَاتِلِهِ فَيَشْخُبَ دَمُهُ فِي وَجْهِهِ فَيَقُولُ أَنْتَ قَتَلْتَهُ فَلاَ يَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ يَكْتُمَ اَللَّهَ حَدِيثاً".
Jabir narrated from Abu Jafar Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir عليه السلام who said: The Messenger of Allah سبحانه وتعالى (peace be upon him and his family) said: "The first matter that Allah سبحانه وتعالى, the Almighty and Majestic, will judge on the Day of Judgment is bloodshed. The sons of Adam عليه السلام will be brought forward, and judgment will be passed between them. Then those who followed them among the people of bloodshed will be judged until none of them remain. After that, the murdered will bring forth his killer, and his blood will gush onto the killer's face. The murdered will say: 'You killed me,' and the killer will not be able to conceal any word from Allah سبحانه وتعالى."
