انہوں نے کہا تم سب اس پر اللہ کی قسم کھاؤ کہ ہم اس کے اور اس کے گھر والوں پر رات کے وقت حملہ کریں گے پھر جو بھی اس کے خون کا مطالبہ[3] کرنے آئے گا ہم اس سے کہیں گے کہ ہم نے اس کے اہل کی ہلاکت (کے واقعہ) کو نہیں دیکھا اور ہم سچے ہیں۔

قرآن مجید میں وَلِیٌّ کا لفظ ہے اور وَلِیٌّ کے معنے ایسے شخص کے ہوتے ہیں جو کسی کے کاموں ں کا ذمہ وار اور اس کا مددگار ہوتا ہے۔ اسی طرح جو شخص کسی کی موت کے بعد اس کے قتل کے بدلہ کا مطالبہ کرے اس کوبھی عربی میں وَلِیٌّ کہتے ہیں۔ کیونکہ ایسا شخص اس کا مددگار ہوتا ہے۔
