Imam al-Sha'bi (may Allah have mercy on him) says that a man of the tribe of Murad prayed. The narrator says: When Sayyiduna Abu Musa (may Allah be pleased with him) finished the prayer with the salam, that man stood up and said: "This is the place of one who repents and seeks refuge." He (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "Woe to you, what is the matter with you?" He said: "I am so-and-so son of so-and-so, of Murad. I waged war against Allah and His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) and ran about spreading corruption in the land. And I have now come, having repented before being brought under control." The narrator says: Sayyiduna Abu Musa (may Allah be pleased with him) stood in the place where that man had stood, then he (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "This is so-and-so son of so-and-so, of Murad. He waged war against Allah and His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) and ran about spreading corruption in the land, and he has repented before being brought under control. So if this man is truthful, he is to be treated as the truthful are treated. And if he is lying, Allah, the Lord of Honour, will seize him for his sin." The narrator says: Then that man went out among the people, went away and escaped. Then he did the same thing again, and he was killed.
