A man who is killed and who forgives his own blood

Ibn Tawus said: I asked my father Tawus: A man is killed and he forgives his blood? He said: It is permissible. I asked: Whether the killing was accidental or deliberate? He said: Yes.

Yunus said that al-Hasan al-Basri used to say: When a man, before his death, forgives his killer who deliberately killed him, it is permissible.

Qatadah said that Sayyiduna Urwah bin Mas'ud al-Thaqafi (may Allah be pleased with him) called his people to Allah and His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), and a man from among them shot him with an arrow, as a result of which he died. He had forgiven him. Then the matter was presented to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and he (peace and blessings be upon him) upheld his forgiveness and said: "He is like the man mentioned in Surah Ya-Sin."

Ibn Jurayj said: I heard Ata saying: If a person killed by mistake gifts his blood money to his killer, this gift on his part will be for the killer within one-third of the blood money, because this too is wealth which he has bequeathed.

Simak bin al-Fadl said that Umar bin Abdul Aziz said: It will be within one-third of the blood money.
