وَعَنْ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرِو ٍ ; 1‏ عَنْ اَلنَّبِيِّ ‏- صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏-قَالَ: { } أَخْرَجَهُ اَلْبُخَارِيّ ُ 2‏ .‏
"مِنْ قَتْلِ مُعَاهِداً لَمْ يَرَحْ رَائِحَةَ اَلْجَنَّةِ, وَإِنَّ رِيحَهَا لِيُوجَدَ مِنْ مَسِيرَةِ أَرْبَعِينَ عَامّاً"
'Abdullah Ibn 'Umar (RAA) narrated that The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:

“Whoever kills a Mu'ahid will not smell the fragrance of Paradise, even though its fragrance could be smelt at a distance of forty years.” Related by Al-Bukhari.
