Sayyiduna Imran bin Husayn (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: Khirash bin Umayyah killed a (non-Muslim), even though the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had already forbidden the killing of (non-Muslims). The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "If I were to kill a Muslim in retaliation for a disbeliever, I would have had Khirash killed in retaliation for that man from the tribe of Hudhayl." (The narrator states:) This happened when, at the time of the conquest of Makkah, Khirash bin Umayyah killed a man from the tribe of Hudhayl.
