Hadith.3263 - Three men were brought before Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib (as). One of them had restrained a man, the second came and killed him, and the third stood watching the act. Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib (as) ruled: "The one who stood watching should have his eyes gouged out, The one who restrained the victim should be imprisoned until he dies, just as he had restrained the victim, and the one who committed the murder should be executed."
3263 - وَ رُفِعَ ثَلاَثَةُ نَفَرٍ إِلَى عَلِيٍّ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ أَمَّا وَاحِدٌ مِنْهُمْ أَمْسَكَ رَجُلاً وَ أَقْبَلَ اَلْآخَرُ فَقَتَلَهُ وَ اَلثَّالِثُ فِي اَلرُّؤْيَةِ يَرَاهُمْ فَقَضَى عَلِيٌّ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ فِي اَلَّذِي فِي اَلرُّؤْيَةِ أَنْ تُسْمَلَ عَيْنَاهُ وَ قَضَى فِي اَلَّذِي أَمْسَكَ أَنْ يُحْبَسَ حَتَّى يَمُوتَ كَمَا أَمْسَكَهُ وَ قَضَى فِي اَلَّذِي قَتَلَ أَنْ يُقْتَلَ.
