Others clamored for me to hit him. Is it illegal to hit him?

According to the laws of our country, it is illegal and criminal to bump into people on purpose. Regardless of whether the other party is provocative or not, it should bear legal responsibility according to the injury of the person who was hit. If the circumstances are minor, such as fighting, damaging other people's property and other acts in violation of public security management caused by civil disputes, the public security organ may mediate. If the parties reach an agreement through mediation by the public security organ, they will not be punished. If the mediation fails to reach an agreement or fails to perform after reaching an agreement, the public security organ shall punish the violator of public security administration in accordance with the provisions of this law, and inform the parties that they can bring a civil lawsuit to the people's court according to law. In accordance with the provisions of Article 234 of the Criminal Law of People's Republic of China (PRC), whoever commits the crime mentioned in the preceding paragraph and causes serious injuries shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than three years but not more than ten years; Whoever causes death or serious disability by particularly cruel means shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than 10 years, life imprisonment or death. Where there are other provisions in this Law, such provisions shall prevail.

Legal basis:

Article 9 of the People's Republic of China (PRC) Public Security Administration Punishment Law violates public security administration by fighting and damaging other people's property caused by civil disputes. If the circumstances are minor, the public security organ may mediate. If the parties reach an agreement through mediation by the public security organ, they will not be punished. If the mediation fails to reach an agreement or fails to perform after reaching an agreement, the public security organ shall punish the violator of public security administration in accordance with the provisions of this law, and inform the parties that they can bring a civil lawsuit to the people's court according to law.

Derivative problem:

Can the other party scold me for hitting people? What is the responsibility of hitting people?

If the other party has abusive behavior, it is an insult to the personality of the party concerned, but the party concerned cannot respond by hitting people, because hitting people will violate the regulations on public security management and even constitute a criminal offence. If it is a minor injury, the parties will not face criminal punishment; If minor injuries are caused, the parties concerned may face fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years, criminal detention or control.
