Crimes (Qisas or Retaliation)

Ibn 'Abbas (RAA) narrated that The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:

‘This and that are equal -meaning the little finger and the thumb.’’ Related by Al-Bukhari Abu Dawud and At-Tirmidhi transmitted, “The Diyah for the fingers and toes is the same, and that for the teeth is the same; the incisor and the molar tooth are the same.” Ibn Hibban narrated, “The Diyah for the fingers and toes is the same; 10 camels for each.”

وَعَنْ اِبْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اَللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا, عَنْ اَلنَّبِيِّ ‏- صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏-قَالَ: { هَذِهِ وَهَذِهِ سَوَاءٌ ‏-يَعْنِي: اَلْخُنْصَرَ وَالْإِبْهَامَ } رَوَاهُ اَلْبُخَارِيُّ [1]‏ وَلِأَبِي دَاوُدَ وَاَلتِّرْمِذِيَّ: { دِيَةُ اَلْأَصَابِعِ سَوَاءٌ, وَالْأَسْنَانُ سَوَاءٌ: اَلثَّنِيَّةُ وَالضِّرْسُ سَوَاءٌ } [2]‏ .‏ وَلِابْنِ حِبَّانَ: { دِيَةُ أَصَابِعِ اَلْيَدَيْنِ وَالرِّجْلَيْنِ سَوَاءٌ, عَشَرَةٌ مِنْ اَلْإِبِلِ لِكُلِّ إصْبَعٍ } [3]‏ .‏

’Amro bin Shu’aib narrated on the authority of his father, on the authority of his grandfather (RAA) that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:

“Anyone who practices medicine but is not known as a practitioner, and kills a human being or inflicts harm on him, will be held responsible.” Related by Ad-Daraqutni. Al-Hakim graded it as Sahih. Abu Dawud, an-Nasa'i and others also narrated it, but its Mursal form is stronger than the connected one.

وَعَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شُعَيْبٍ, عَنْ أَبِيهِ, عَنْ جَدِّهِ رَفَعَهُ قَالَ: { مَنْ تَطَبَّبَ ‏-وَلَمْ يَكُنْ بِالطِّبِّ مَعْرُوفًا‏- فَأَصَابَ نَفْسًا فَمَا دُونَهَا, فَهُوَ ضَامِنٌ } أَخْرَجَهُ اَلدَّارَقُطْنِيُّ, وَصَحَّحَهُ اَلْحَاكِمُ, وَهُوَ عِنْدَ أَبِي دَاوُدَ, وَالنَّسَائِيِّ وَغَيْرِهِمَا; إِلَّا أَنَّ مَنْ أَرْسَلَهُ أَقْوَى مِمَّنْ وَصَلَهُ.‏ [1]‏

'Amro bin Shu’aib narrated on the authority of his father, on the authority of his grandfather (RAA) that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:

“For a wound which exposes a bone five camels are paid (in compensation).’’ Related by Ahmad and the four Imams. Ahmad added the following statement, “And the fingers and toes are all equal- in Diyah· ten camels.” Ibn Khuzaimah and Ibn al-Garud graded it as Sahih.

وَعَنْهُ; أَنَّ اَلنَّبِيَّ ‏- صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏-قَالَ: { فِي الْمَوَاضِحِ خَمْسٌ, خَمْسٌ مِنْ اَلْإِبِلِ } رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ.‏ وَالْأَرْبَعَةُ.‏ وَزَادَ أَحْمَدُ: { وَالْأَصَابِعُ سَوَاءٌ, كُلُّهُنَّ عَشْرٌ, عَشْرٌ مِنَ اَلْإِبِلِ } وَصَحَّحَهُ اِبْنُ خُزَيْمَةَ, وَابْنُ اَلْجَارُودِ.‏ [1]‏ .‏

'Amro bin Shu'aib narrated on the authority of his father, on the authority of his grandfather (RAA) that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:

“The Diyah of the Dhimmi is half that of a Muslim.” Related by Ahmad and the four Imams. The narration of Abu Dawud, “The Diyah of the Mu'ahid (non Muslim with a covenant of protection) is half the Diyah of an free Muslim.” In the narration of An-Nasa’i, “The Diyah of a woman is the same as the Diyah of a man up to the third of the value (if the due value exceeds the third then her Diyah is half that of the man).” Ibn Khuzaimah graded it as Sahih.

وَعَنْهُ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ ‏- صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏-{ عَقْلُ أَهْلِ اَلذِّمَّةِ نِصْفُ عَقْلِ اَلْمُسْلِمِينَ } رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ وَالْأَرْبَعَةُ [1]‏ .‏ وَلَفْظُ أَبِي دَاوُدَ: { دِيَةُ اَلْمُعَاهِدِ نِصْفُ دِيَةِ اَلْحُرِّ } [2]‏ وَلِلنِّسَائِيِّ: { عَقْلُ اَلْمَرْأَةِ مِثْلُ عَقْلِ اَلرَّجُلِ, حَتَّى يَبْلُغَ اَلثُّلُثَ مِنْ دِيَتِهَا } وَصَحَّحَهُ اِبْنُ خُزَيْمَةَ.‏ [3]‏

'Amro bin Shu'aib narrated on the authority of his father, on the authority of his grandfather (RAA) that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:

“The Diyah of the quasi-deliberate homicide is as severe as deliberate murder (in its being given in three types of camels), and the offender is not to be killed. This happens when the devil excites enmity between people causing them to shed blood but not due to hatred or carrying weapons in fighting.” Related by Ad-Daraqutni and graded it as weak Hadith.

وَعَنْهُ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ ‏- صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏-{ عَقْلُ شِبْهِ اَلْعَمْدِ مُغَلَّظٌ مِثْلُ عَقْلِ اَلْعَمْدِ, وَلَا يَقْتَلُ صَاحِبُهُ, وَذَلِكَ أَنْ يَنْزُوَ اَلشَّيْطَانُ, فَتَكُونُ دِمَاءٌ بَيْنَ اَلنَّاسِ فِي غَيْرِ ضَغِينَةٍ, وَلَا حَمْلِ سِلَاحٍ } أَخْرَجَهُ اَلدَّارَقُطْنِيُّ وَضَعَّفَهُ [1]‏

Ibn ’Abbas (RAA) narrated that, 'A man killed another man during the lifetime of the Prophet (ﷺ), so the Prophet (ﷺ) decided that his Diyah would be 12 thousand (Dirhams).' Related by the four Imams.

عَنْ اِبْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اَللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا قَالَ: { قَتَلَ رَجُلٌ رَجُلًا عَلَى عَهْدِ اَلنَّبِيِّ ‏- صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏- [1]‏ فَجَعَلَ اَلنَّبِيُّ ‏- صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏-دِيَتَهُ اِثْنَيْ عَشَرَ أَلْفًا } رَوَاهُ اَلْأَرْبَعَةُ, وَرَجَّحَ النَّسَائِيُّ وَأَبُو حَاتِمٍ إِرْسَالَهُ.‏ [2]‏ .‏

Abu Rimthah narrated, ‘I came to the Prophet (ﷺ) with my son and he asked me, “Who is this?” I answered, ‘This is my son, and I swear on it.’ The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:

“He will not carry your burdens (sins) and you will not carry his burdens.” Related by An-Nasa’i and Abu Dawud. Ibn Khuzaimah and Ibn al-Garud graded it as Sahih.

وَعَنْ أَبِي رِمْثَةَ قَالَ: { أَتَيْتُ اَلنَّبِيَّ ‏- صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏-وَمَعِي اِبْنِي [1]‏ .‏ فَقَالَ: "مَنْ هَذَا?" قُلْتُ: اِبْنِي.‏ أَشْهَدُ بِهِ.‏ قَالَ: "أَمَّا إِنَّهُ لَا يَجْنِي عَلَيْكَ, وَلَا تَجْنِي عَلَيْهِ } رَوَاهُ النَّسَائِيُّ, وَأَبُو دَاوُدَ, وَصَحَّحَهُ اِبْنُ خُزَيْمَةَ, وَابْنُ اَلْجَارُودِ [2]‏ .‏

Sahl bin Abi Khaithamah (RAA) narrated on the authority of some honored men from his people that 'Abdullah bin Sahl and Muhaiysah bin Mas'ud, went out to Khaibar because of a hardship they were undergoing. Muhaiysah came and told them that 'Abdullah bin Sahl had been killed and thrown into a well. He came to the Jews and said to them, ‘I swear by Allah that you have killed him.’ They replied, ‘We swear by Allah that we have not killed him.' Then Muhaiysah came along with his brother Huwaiysah and 'Abdur Rahman bin Sahl to the Prophet (ﷺ) and Muhaiysah started to talk. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said to him, “Let an older one speak (take charge of this matter).” So Huwaiysah narrated what happened and then Muhaiysah spoke. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:

“Either they pay the Diyah of your companion or be ready for war.” The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) wrote to them about this and they wrote back saying, ‘By Allah, we have not killed him.’ The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) then said to Huwaiysah, Muhaiysah and 'Abdur Rahman bin Sahl, “Would you take an oath (that they killed him) and then you will be entitled to the Diyah of your companion” 'They answered, ‘No (as they did not witness the crime).’The Messenger of Allah then said, “Then the Jews should take an oath (that they are innocent).” They said, ‘They are not Muslims.’ The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) thereupon paid the Diyah of the victim himself and sent them 100 camels. Sahl commented, ‘A red she-camel (of these 100 camels) kicked me.’ Agreed upon.
