Sunan an-Nasai 4002 (Book 37, Hadith 37) #18535
The Unabrogated Verses of the Quran

SUMMARY: This hadith explains that the verses in the Quran regarding killing a believer intentionally and not invoking any other god besides Allah have not been abrogated.

It was narrated that Sa'eed bin Jubair said: "Abdur-Rahman bin Abi Laila told me to ask Ibn 'Abbas about two Verses: 'And whoever kills a believer intentionally, his recompense is Hell'. I asked him and he said: 'Nothing of this has been abrogated'. (And I asked him about the Verse): 'And those who invoke not any other ilah (god) along with Allah, or kill such person as Allah has forbidden, except by right,' he said: 'This was revealed concerning the people of Shirk'."
أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ، قَالَ أَمَرَنِي عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ أَبِي لَيْلَى أَنْ أَسْأَلَ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ، عَنْ هَاتَيْنِ الآيَتَيْنِ، ‏{‏ وَمَنْ يَقْتُلْ مُؤْمِنًا مُتَعَمِّدًا فَجَزَاؤُهُ جَهَنَّمُ ‏}‏ فَسَأَلْتُهُ فَقَالَ لَمْ يَنْسَخْهَا شَىْءٌ ‏.‏ وَعَنْ هَذِهِ الآيَةِ ‏{‏ وَالَّذِينَ لاَ يَدْعُونَ مَعَ اللَّهِ إِلَهًا آخَرَ وَلاَ يَقْتُلُونَ النَّفْسَ الَّتِي حَرَّمَ اللَّهُ إِلاَّ بِالْحَقِّ ‏}‏ قَالَ نَزَلَتْ فِي أَهْلِ الشِّرْكِ

Respect for human life, Worship only one God - Allah

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about two verses from the Quran, which are “And whoever kills a believer intentionally, his recompense is Hell” and “And those who invoke not any other ilah (god) along with Allah, or kill such person as Allah has forbidden, except by right.” These verses were revealed to address people who practice shirk or polytheism. The narrator asked Ibn Abbas about these two verses and he said that they have not been abrogated. This means that these two verses still apply today and should be followed by believers of Islam. It teaches us to never take someone's life without a valid reason and to only worship one God - Allah - without associating anyone else with Him.
