Qisas is prescribed for you in case of murder;..... up to...end of the Verse. 2.178 Ibn Abbas added: Remission forgiveness in this Verse; means to accept the Blood-money in an intentional murder.

The law of AlQisas i.e. equality in punishment is prescribed for you in cases of murder: The free for the free; the slave for the slave; and the female for the female. But if the relatives or one of them of the killed person forgive their brother i.e. the killers something of Qisas i.e. not to kill the killer by accepting blood money in the case of intentional murder --then the relatives of the killed person should demand blood-money in a reasonable manner and the killer must pay with handsome gratitude. This is an allevitation and a Mercy from your Lord; in comparison to what was prescribed for the nations before you. So after this; whoever transgresses the limits i.e. to kill the killer after taking the blood-money shall have a painful torment. 2.178	The Chapter on Crimes And Felonies Of Killing in HodHood Indexing, The Book of Prophetic Commentary on the Quran Tafseer of the Prophet in Sahih AlBukhari

Abu Qilaba said; Anas narrated to me in this concern; saying; some people came to the Prophet ﷺ and they spoke to him saying; The climate of this land does not suit us.

So they took them and set out and drank of their urine and milk; and having recovered; they attacked the shepherd; killed him and drove away the camels. Why should there be any delay in punishing them as they murdered a person and waged war against Allah and His Apostle and frightened Allah Messenger ﷺ ?

The Quraish passed by it and other people too; that Abdullah Bin Umar happened to pass by it. He stood up there and said: May there be peace upon you; Abu Khubaib the Kunya of Hadrat Abdullah Bin AlZubair ; may there be peace upon you Abu Khubaib; may there be peace upon you; Abu Khubaib! By Allah; I used to forbid you from this; by Allah; I used to forbid you from this; by Allah I used to forbid you from this. By Allah; so far as I know; you had been very much devoted to fasting and prayer and you had been paying very much care to cementing the ties of blood. By Allah; the group to which you belong are labelled as a wicked person is indeed a fine group. Then Abdullah Bin Umar went away. The stand Abdullah Bin Umar took in regard to the inhuman treatment meted out to Abdullah Bin AlZubair and his words in that connection were conveyed to AlHajjaj Bin Yousif and as a consequence of that he the body of Abdullah Bin AlZubair was brought down from the stump the scaffold by which it was hanging and thrown into the graves of the Jews. He AlHajjaj sent his messenger to Asma bint Abu Bakr; Abdullah mother. But she refused to come. He again sent the messenger to her with the message that she must come; otherwise he would bring her forcibly catching hold of her hair. But she again refused and said: By Allah; I will not come to you until you send one to me who would drag me by pulling my hair. Thereupon he said: Bring me my shoes. He put on his shoes and walked on quickly swollen with vanity and pride until he came to her and said: How do you find what I have done with the enemy of Allah? She said: I find that you wronged him in this world; whereas he has spoiled your next life. It has been conveyed to me that you used to call him Abdullah Bin AlZubair as the son of one having two belts. By Allah; I am indeed a woman of two belts. One is that with the help of which I used to suspend high the food of Allah Messenger ﷺ and that of Abu Bakr making it out of the reach of animals and; so far as the second belt is concerned; that is the belt which no woman can dispense with. Verily Allah Messenger ﷺ told us that in Thaqif; there would be born a great liar and great murderer. The liar we have seen; and as far as the murderer is concerned; I do not find anyone else besides you. Thereupon he AlHajjaj stood up and did not give any reply to her.

The Chapter on Camels And Herdsmen And Holiness in HodHood Indexing, Chapter on Diyah For A Mistaken Killing That Appears Purposeful in Sunan Abu Dawoud
SunanAbuDawoud-017-001-25781		Narrated Abu Dawud: I found in my notebook from Shaiban and I did not hear from him ; Abu Bakr; a reliable friend of ours; said: Shaiban - Muhammad Bin Rashid - Sulaiman Bin Mousad - Amr Bin Suhaib; On his father authority; said that his grandfather said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ would fix the blood-money for accidental killing at the rate of four hundred dinars or their equivalent in silver for townsmen; and he would fix it according to the price of camels. So when they were dear; he increased the amount to be paid; and when cheap prices prevailed he reduced the amount to be paid. In the time of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ they reached between four hundred and eight hundred dinars; their equivalent in silver being eight thousand dirhams. He said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ gave judgment that those who possessed cattle should pay two hundred cows; and those who possessed sheep two thousand sheep. He said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: The blood-money is to be treated as something to be inherited by the heirs of the one who has been killed; and the remainder should be divided among the agnates. He said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ gave judgment that for cutting off a nose completely there was full blood-money; one hundred camels were to be paid. If the tip of the nose was cut off; half of the blood-money;i.e. fifty camels were to be paid; or their equivalent in gold or in silver; or a hundred cows; or one thousand sheep. For the hand; when it was cut of;f half of the blood-money was to be paid; for one foot of half; the blood-money was to be paid. For a wound in the head; a third of the blood-money was due; i.e. thirty-three camels and a third of the blood-money; or their equivalent in gold; silver; cows or sheep. For a head thrust which reaches the body; the same blood-money was to be paid. Ten camels were to be paid for every finger; and five camels for every tooth. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ gave judgment that the blood-money for a woman should be divided among her relatives on her father side; who did not inherit anything from her except the residence of her heirs. If she was killed; her blood-money should be distributed among her heirs; and they would have the right of taking revenge on the murderer. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: There is nothing for the murderer; and if he the victim has no heir; his heir will be the one who is nearest to him among the people; but the murderer should not inherit anything. Muhammad said: All this has been transmitted to me by Sulayman Ibn Mousa on the authority of Amr Ibn Shuaib who; on his father authority; said that his grandfather heard it from the Prophet ﷺ.Abu Dawud said: Muhammad Bin Rashid; an inhabitant of Damascus; fled from Basrah escaping murder.

Khalid gave us some additional information on the authority of Ibn Rashid: That unintentional murder which resembles intentional murder means that Satan jumps among the people and then the blood is shed blindly without any malice and weapon.

In Muwata Malik

Hadith Page	Arabic Text	English Translation	Book and Chapter
MuwataMalik-017-001-34742		Yahya said from Malik from Yahya Ibn Said that Bushayr Ibn Yasar informed him that Abdullah Ibn Sahl AlAnsari and Muhayisa Ibn Masud went out to Khaybar; and they separated on their various businesses and Abdullah Ibn Sahl was killed. Muhayisa; and his brother Huwayisa and Abdulrahman Ibn Sahl went to the Prophet; may Allah bless him and grant him peace; and Abdulrahman began to speak before his brother. The Messenger of Allah; may Allah bless him and grant him peace; said; The older first; the older first. Therefore Huwayisa and then Muhayisa spoke and mentioned the affair of Abdullah Ibn Sahl. The Messenger of Allah; may Allah bless him and grant him peace; said to them; Do you swear with fifty oaths and claim the blood-money of your companion or the life of the murderer? They said; Messenger of Allah; we did not see it and we were not present. The Messenger of Allah; may Allah bless him and grant him peace; said; Will you acquit the jews for fifty oaths? They said; Messenger of Allah; how can we accept the oaths of a people who are kafirun? Yahya Ibn Said said; Bushayr Ibn Yasar claimed that the Messenger of Allah; may Allah bless him and grant him peace; paid the blood-money from his own property. Malik said; The generally agreed on way of doing things in our community and that which I heard from whoever I am content with; concerning the oath of qasama; and upon which the past and present imams agree; is that those who claim revenge begin with the oaths and swear. The oath for revenge is only obligatory in two situations. Either the slain person says; My blood is against so-and-so; or the relatives entitled to the blood bring a partial proof of it that is not irrefutable against the one who is the object of the blood-claim. This obliges taking an oath on the part of those who claim the blood against those who are the object of the blood-claim. With us; swearing is only obliged in these two situations. Malik said; That is the sunna in which there is no dispute with us and which is still the behaviour of the people. The people who claim blood begin the swearings; whether it is an intentional killing or an accident. Malik said; The Messenger of Allah; may Allah bless him and grant him peace; began with Banu Harith in the case of the killing of their kinsman murdered at Khaybar. Malik said; If those who make the claim swear; they deserve the blood of their kinsman and whoever they swear against is slain. Only one man can be killed in the qasama. Two cannot be killed in it. Fifty men from the blood-relatives must swear fifty oaths. If their number is less or some of them draw back; they can repeat their oaths; unless one of the relatives of the murdered man who deserves blood and who is permitted to pardon it; draws back. If one of these draws back; there is no way to revenge. Yahya said that Malik said; The oaths can be made by those of them who remain if one of them draws back who is not permitted to pardon. If one of the blood-relatives draws back who is permitted to pardon; even if he is only one; more oaths can not be made after that by the blood- relatives. If that occurs; the oaths can be on behalf of the one against whom the claim is made. So fifty of the men of his people swear fifty oaths. If there are not fifty men; more oaths can be made by those of them who already swore. If there is only the defendant; he swears fifty oaths and is acquitted. Yahya said that Malik said; One distinguishes between swearing for blood and oaths for one rights. When a man has a money-claim against another man; he seeks to verify his due. When a man wants to kill another man; he does not kill him in the midst of people. He keeps to a place away from people. Had there only been swearing in cases where there is a clear proof and had one acted in it as one acts about one rights i.e. needing witnesses ; the right of blood retribution would have been lost and people would have been swift to take advantage of it when they learned of the decision on it. However; the relatives of the murdered man were allowed to initiate swearing so that people might restrain themselves from blood and the murderer might beware lest he was put into a situation like that i.e. qasama by the statement of the murdered man. Yahya said; Malik said about a people of whom a certain number are suspected of murder and the relatives of the murdered man ask them to take oaths and they are numerous; so they ask that each man swears fifty oaths on his own behalf. The oaths are not divided out between them according to their number and they are not acquitted unless each man among them swears fifty oaths on his own behalf. Malik said; This is the best I have heard about the matter. He said; Swearing goes to the paternal relatives of the slain. They are the blood-relatives who swear against the killer and by whose swearing he is killed.

MuwataMalik-017-001-34743		Yahya said that Malik said; The way of doing things in our community about which there is no dispute is that women do not swear in the swearing for the intentional act. If the murdered man only has female relatives; the women have no right to swear for blood and no pardon in murder. Yahya said that Malik said about a man who is murdered; If the paternal relatives of the murdered man or his mawali say; We swear and we demand our companion blood; that is their right. Malik said; If the women want to pardon him; they cannot do that. The paternal relatives and mawali are entitled to do that more than them because they are the ones who demand blood and swear for it. Malik said; If the paternal relatives or mawali pardon after they demand blood and the women refuse and say; We will not abandon our right against the murderer of our companion; the women are more entitled to that because whoever takes retaliation is more entitled than the one who leaves it among the women and paternal relatives when the murder is established and killing obliged. Malik said; At least two claimants must swear in murder. The oaths are repeated by them until they swear fifty oaths; then they have the right to blood. That is how things are done in our community. Malik said; When people beat a man and he dies in their hands; they are all slain for him. If he dies after their beating; there is swearing. If there is swearing; it is only against one man and only he is slain. We have never known the swearing to be against more than one man. Malik spoke about a slave who had his hand or foot broken and then the break mended. He said; The one who injured him is not obliged to pay anything. If that break causes him loss or scar; the one who injured him must pay according to what he diminished of the value of the slave. Malik said; What is done in our community about retaliation between slaves is that it is like retaliation between freemen. The life of the slave-girl for the life of the slave; and her injury for his injury. When a slave intentionally kills a slave; the master of the murdered slave has a choice. If he wishes; he kills him; and if he wishes; he takes the blood-money. If he takes the blood-money; he takes the value of his slave. If the owner of the slave who killed wishes to give the value of the murdered slave; he does it. If he wishes; he surrenders his slave. If he surrenders him; he is not obliged to do anything other than that. When the owner of the murdered slave takes the slave who murdered and is satisifed with him; he must not kill him. All retaliations between slaves for cutting off of the hand and foot and such things are dealt with in the same way as in the murder. Malik said about a muslim slave who injures a jew or christian; If the master of the slave wishes to pay blood-money for him according to the injury; he does it. Or else he surrenders him and he is sold; and the jew or christian is given the blood-money of the injury or all the price of the slave if the blood-money is greater than his price. The jew or christian is not given a muslim slave.	The Chapter on Murder In Crimes And Felonies in HodHood Indexing, The Book of Purity in Muwata Malik
MuwataMalik-017-001-34843		Yahya related to me from Malik from Yahya Ibn Said that Marwan Ibn AlHakam wrote to Muawiya Ibn Abi Sufyan that a madman was brought to him who had killed a man. Muawiya wrote to him; Tie him up and do not inflict any retaliation on him. There is no retaliation against a madman. Malik said about an adult and a child when they murder a man together; The adult is killed and the child pays half the full blood-money. Malik said; It is like that with a freeman and a slave when they murder a slave. The slave is killed and the freeman pays half of his value.

MuwataMalik-017-001-34872		Malik said that Ibn Shihab said; The precedent of the sunna in the intentional murder is that when the relatives of the murdered person relinquish retaliation; the blood-money is owed by the murderer from his own property unless the tribe helps him with it willingly. Malik said; What is done in our community is that the blood- money is not obliged against the tribe until it has reached a third of the full amount and upwards. Whatever reaches a third is against the tribe; and whatever is below a third; is against the property of the one who did the injury. Malik said; The way of doing things about which there is no dispute among us; in the case of someone who has the blood-money accepted from him in intentional murder or in any injury in which there is retaliation; is that that blood-money is not due from the tribe unless they wish it. The blood-money for that is from the property of the murderer or the injurer if he has property. If he does not have any property; it is a debt against him; and none of it is owed by the tribe unless they wish. Malik said; The tribe does not pay blood-money to anyone who injures himself; intentionally or accidentally. This is the opinion of the people of fiqh in our community. I have not heard that anyone has made the tribe liable for any blood-money incurred by intentional acts. Part of what is well-known of that is that Allah; the Blessed; and the Exalted; said in His Book; Whoever has something pardoned him by his brother; should follow it with what is accepted and pay it with good will Surat 2 ayat 178 The commentary on that - in our view - and Allah knows best; is that whoever gives his brother something of the blood- money; should follow it with what is accepted and pay him with good will. Malik spoke about a child who had no property and a woman who had no property. He said; When one of them causes an injury below a third of the blood-money; it is taken on behalf of the child and woman from their personal property; if they have property from which it may be taken. If not; the injury which each of them has caused is a debt against them. The tribe does not have to pay any of it and the father of a child is not liable for the blood-money of an injury caused by the child and he is not responsible for it. Malik said; The way of doing things in our community about which there is no dispute; is that when a slave is killed; the value for him is that of the day on which he was killed. The tribe of the murderer is not liable for any of the value of the slave; great or small. That is the responsibility of the one who struck him from his own personal property as far as it covers. If the value of the slave is the blood- money or more; that is against him in his property. That is because the slave is a certain type of goods.

MuwataMalik-017-001-34876		11 Malik related to me from Yahya Ibn Said from Urwa Ibn AlZubair that a man of the Ansar called Uhayha Ibn AlJulah had a young paternal uncle who was younger than him and who was living with his maternal uncles. Uhayha took him and killed him. His maternal uncles said; We brought him up from a baby to a youth till he stood firm on his feet; and we have had the right of a man taken from us by his paternal uncle. Urwa said; For that reason a killer does not inherit from the one he killed. Malik said; The way of doing things about which there is no dispute is that the intentional murderer does not inherit anything of the blood-money of the person he has murdered or any of his property. He does not stop anyone who has a share of inheritance from inheriting. The one who kills accidentally does not inherit anything of the blood-money and there is dispute as to whether or not he inherits from the dead person property because there is no suspicion that he killed him for his inheritance and in order to take his property. I prefer that he inherit from the dead person property and not inherit from the blood-money.	The Chapter on Inheritance And Heirs in HodHood Indexing, The Book of General Subjects in Muwata Malik
MuwataMalik-017-001-34880		Yahya related to me from Malik from Umar Ibn Husayn; the mawla of Aisha bint Qudama; that Abd AlMalik Ibn Marwan imposed retaliation against a man who killed a mawla with a stick and so the mawla patron killed the man with a stick. Malik said; The generally agreed on way of doing things in our community about which there is no dispute is that when a man strikes another man with a stick or hits him with a rock or intentionally strikes him causing his death; that is an intentional injury and there is retaliation for it. Malik said; Intentional murder with us is that a man intentionally goes to a man and strikes him until his life goes. Part of intentional injury also is that a man strikes a man in a quarrel between them. He leaves him while he is alive; and he bleeds to death and so dies. There is retaliation for that. Malik said; What is done in our community is that a group of free men are killed for the intentional murder of one free man; and a group of women for one woman; and a group of slaves for one slave.

MuwataMalik-017-001-34881		Yahya related to me from Malik that he had heard that Marwan Ibn AlHakam wrote to Muawiya Ibn Abi Sufyan to mention to him that a drunkard was brought to him who had killed a man. Muawiya wrote to him to kill him in retaliation for the dead man. Yahya said that Malik said; The best of what I have heard on the interpretation of this ayat; the word of Allah; the Blessed; the Exalted; The free man for the free man and the slave for the slave - these are men and the woman for the woman; Surat 2 ayat 178 is that retaliation is between women as it is between men. The free woman is killed for the free woman as the free man is killed for the free man. The slave-girl is slain for the slave-girl as the slave is slain for the slave. Retaliation is between women as it is between men. That is because Allah; the Blessed; the Exalted; said in His Book; We have written for them in it that it is a life for a life and an eye for an eye; a nose for a nose; and an ear for an ear; and a tooth for a tooth; and for wounds there is retaliation. Surat 5 ayat 48 Allah; the Blessed; the Exalted; mentioned that it is a life for a life. It is the life of a free woman for the life of a free man; and her injury for his injury. Malik said about a man who held a man fast for another man to hit; and he died on the spot; If he held him and he thought that he meant to kill him; the two of them are both killed for him. If he held him and he thought that he meant to beat him as people sometimes do; and he did not think that he meant to kill him; the murderer is slain and the one who held him is punished with a very severe punishment and jailed for a year. There is no killing against him. Malik said about a man who murdered a man intentionally or gouged out his eye intentionally; and then was slain or had his eye gouged out himself before retaliation was inflicted on him; There is no blood-money nor retaliation against him. The right of the one who was killed or had his eye gouged out goes when the thing which he is claiming as retaliation goes. It is the same with a man who murders another man intentionally and then the murderer dies. When the murderer dies; the one seeking blood-revenge has nothing of blood- money or anything else. That is by the word of Allah; the Blessed the Exalted; Retaliation is written for you in killing. The free man for the free man and the slave for the slave. Malik said; He only has retaliation against the one who killed him. If the man who murdered him dies; he has no retaliation or blood-money. Malik said; There is no retaliation held against a free man by a slave for any injury. The slave is killed for the free man when he intentionally murders him. The free man is not slain for the slave; even if he murders him intentionally. It is the best of what I have heard.

MuwataMalik-017-001-34882		Yahya related to me from Malik that he saw whomever he was satisfied with among the people of knowledge say about a man who willed that his murderer be pardoned when he murdered him intentionally; That is permitted for him. He is more entitled to the man blood than any of his relatives after him. Malik said about a man who pardoned murder; after he had claimed his right and it was obliged for him; There is no blood-money against the murderer unless the one who pardons him stipulates that when he pardons him. Malik said about the murderer when he was pardoned; He is flogged one hundred lashes and jailed for a year. Malik said; When a man murders intentionally and there is a clear proof of that; and the murdered man has sons and daughters and the sons pardon and the daughters refuse to pardon; the pardon of the sons is permitted in opposition to the daughters and there is no authority for the daughters with the sons in demanding blood and pardoning.
