وعن ابن عباس رضي الله عنهما أن النبي صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم قال: « يودى المكاتب بقدر ما عتق منه دية الحر وبقدر ما رق منه دية العبد » رواه أحمد وأبو داود والنسائي.
Ibn ’Abbas (RAA) narrated that The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “The Diyah (Blood money) of a slave who had made an agreement to buy his freedom (Mukatib) and had been killed, is paid at the rate paid for a free man (as a Diyah) as much as he has paid of the amount agreed upon, and at the rate paid for a slave as the remainder is concerned.” Related by Ahmad, Abu Dawud and Au-Nasa’i.

Benefits and Issues:
The manner in which Islam has protected the rights of slaves is unmatched by any other nation.
If a slave has become half-free and half-slave, then half of the blood money (diyah) will be paid as for a free person, and the remaining half as for a slave.
Similarly, this ruling applies to other matters as well.
