5181 - وَ رَوَى زُرَارَةُ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: "إِنَّمَا جُعِلَتِ اَلْقَسَامَةُ اِحْتِيَاطاً لِلنَّاسِ لِكَيْمَا إِذَا أَرَادَ اَلْفَاسِقُ أَنْ يَقْتُلَ رَجُلاً أَوْ يَغْتَالَ رَجُلاً حَيْثُ لاَ يَرَاهُ أَحَدٌ خَافَ ذَلِكَ فَامْتَنَعَ مِنَ اَلْقَتْلِ".

Hadith.5181 - Zurarah narrated from Abu Abdullah (as), who said: "The practice of Qasamah was established as a precaution for people so that if a wicked person intended to kill or assassinate someone where no one could see him, he would fear this ruling and refrain from committing murder."
