Narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) delivered a sermon to the people on the day of the conquest of Makkah and said: The blood money (diyah) for accidental killing that occurs with a whip or stick, etc., is aggravated; it will be a total of one hundred camels, of which forty will be pregnant she-camels. Beware! Every blood, wealth, and pride of the Age of Ignorance is trampled under my feet. Yes, I entrust the responsibility of providing water to the pilgrims and serving the House of Allah to those who have already been performing this service.

Brief Explanation
Benefits: … In the case of killing resembling intentional murder (shibh al-‘amd), only one hundred camels are required as blood money (diyah). In this hadith, the specification of forty has been clarified—that they should be pregnant she-camels. The details of the remaining sixty camels are mentioned in hadith number (6580). According to these two ahadith, the total diyah amounts to one hundred (100) camels: thirty hiqqah, thirty jadha‘ah, and forty pregnant she-camels. In this type of killing, there is no retribution (qisas); however, the diyah is as heavy as the diyah for intentional murder (qatl ‘amd).
