Combining the Prohibition of Muthlah (Mutilation) with Its Practice Against the 'Aran

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: How do you reconcile the Prophet's (peace and blessings be upon him) prohibition of mutilation in killing with what is reported of his (peace and blessings be upon him) action toward the 'Aran?

Answer:
The forbidden mutilation that is not a matter of qisas (retaliation in kind); rather, it is an act by people purely for revenge, so it is not permissible. Yes.
