A fetus aborted alive that then dies, or that moved or twitched

Makhul said that Sayyiduna Zayd (may Allah be pleased with him) said, regarding an underdeveloped child that was miscarried and then also moved: "Its blood money is due in full, whether it cried out or did not cry out."

Hisham bin Urwah said that Urwah said: "When a child in its mother's womb is miscarried alive, blood money is due for it, and if it is miscarried dead, a ghurrah, that is, a male or female slave, is due for it."

Ibn Salim said that al-Sha'bi said: "When a man strikes the belly of a pregnant woman and she then miscarries a dead child, a ghurrah is due for it, that is, a male or female slave is due from that man's wealth; and if that child is miscarried alive, blood money is due."

Ibn Abi Dhi'b said that Imam al-Zuhri said: "When a child miscarried from its mother's womb cries out and then dies, blood money is due for it."

Ibrahim said: A woman gave birth to a child, and some women testified that it had twitched and was born alive, but they did not testify to the child's crying out. At this Shurayh said: "It will count as alive and will inherit from the deceased." Then he annulled its inheritance, because those women had not testified to its crying and crying out.
