Sahih Muslim 1357 (Book 15, Hadith 512) #10447
The Prophet's Order to Kill Ibn Khatal

SUMMARY: The hadith is about the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) entering Mecca in the Year of Victory and ordering to kill a man named Ibn Khatal.

Anas b. Malik (Allah be pleased with them) reported that Allah's Apostle entered Mecca in the Year of Victory with a helmet on his head; and when he took it off, a man came to him and said: Ibn Khatal is hanging on to the curtains of the Ka'ba, whereupon he said: Kill him. Malik (one of the narrators) attested this statement having been made.
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ الْقَعْنَبِيُّ، وَيَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى، وَقُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، أَمَّا الْقَعْنَبِيُّ فَقَالَ قَرَأْتُ عَلَى مَالِكِ بْنِ أَنَسٍ وَأَمَّا قُتَيْبَةُ فَقَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكٌ وَقَالَ يَحْيَى - وَاللَّفْظُ لَهُ - قُلْتُ لِمَالِكٍ أَحَدَّثَكَ ابْنُ شِهَابٍ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ دَخَلَ مَكَّةَ عَامَ الْفَتْحِ وَعَلَى رَأْسِهِ مِغْفَرٌ فَلَمَّا نَزَعَهُ جَاءَهُ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ ابْنُ خَطَلٍ مُتَعَلِّقٌ بِأَسْتَارِ الْكَعْبَةِ ‏.‏ فَقَالَ ‏ "‏ اقْتُلُوهُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ فَقَالَ مَالِكٌ نَعَمْ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the Prophet Muhammad's ﷺ(محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم ) entry into Mecca in the Year of Victory and his order to kill a man named Ibn Khatal. This event occurred during a time when Muslims were victorious over their enemies and were able to enter Mecca without fear or harm from anyone else. It serves as an example of how justice should be served even if it means taking drastic measures such as killing someone who has committed a crime against another person or group of people. It also shows that even though Muslims are commanded to show mercy and compassion towards others, they must also uphold justice when necessary for the greater good of society as a whole.
