اُردوEn
حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ ، عَنْ مَالِكٍ ، عَنْ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ : " أَنَّ امْرَأَتَيْنِ رَمَتْ إِحْدَاهُمَا الْأُخْرَى بِحَجَرٍ فَطَرَحَتْ جَنِينَهَا ، فَقَضَى فِيهِ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِغُرَّةٍ عَبْدٍ أَوْ وَلِيدَةٍ " .
Narrated Abu Huraira: Two ladies (had a fight) and one of them hit the other with a stone on the `Abdomen and caused her to abort. The Prophet judged that the victim be given either a slave or a female slave (as blood-money).

Jurisprudential Explanation:
➊ Rabi’ah ibn Abi Abd al-Rahman al-Ra’i used to say that the blood money (diyah) for the unborn child of a slave woman (who dies) should be the value of a male or female slave, which is fifty dinars or six hundred dirhams, and the blood money for a free Muslim woman is five hundred dinars or six thousand dirhams. See: [موطأ امام مالك رواية يحييٰ 856/2 ح 1660، وسنده صحيح]
➋ Some scholars say that if in such a situation the child is born alive and then dies, then the full blood money (diyah) must be paid.
➌ Some scholars have said that these two women who fought with each other were co-wives (each other's co-wives).
