Hazrat Abu Huraira narrates that a man committed murder during the time of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him. So this matter was presented before the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him. He, peace and blessings be upon him, handed him over to the guardian of the murdered person. The killer said, "O Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him! I did not intend to kill him." Upon this, the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said to the guardian, "If he is truthful and you kill him, then you will enter Hell." The narrator says: He let him go, that is, he forgave him, and the killer's hands were tied with a strap. So he left in such a state that he was dragging his strap, and he became known as 'the one with the strap.'
