Mishkat al-Masabih #3404

Retaliation

The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.

وَعَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «الْإِيمَانُ قَيَّدَ الْفَتْكَ لَا يفتِكُ مُؤمنٌ» . رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُد
Abu Huraira reported the Prophet as saying, “Faith is an assurance of safety from being killed unawares. A believer does not kill another unawares.” Abu Dawud transmitted it.
