A man killed in the Sacred Precinct

Nafi' bin Jubayr said that Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: Four thousand dirhams are added to the blood money of a person killed in the sacred months, and four thousand dirhams are likewise added to the blood money of a person killed within the bounds of the Sanctuary. And the value of the blood money of a person within the bounds of the Sanctuary is twenty thousand dirhams.

Ikrimah said that Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) decided that the blood money for the townspeople is twelve thousand dirhams, and he said: Times change, and I fear for you the rulers who will be appointed over you after me. So there is no increase upon the townspeople in making the blood money severe, nor in the sacred months, nor within the bounds of the Sanctuary. The blood money of the townspeople is already severe; there will be no increase in it.

Abu Najih said that Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) decided, concerning a woman killed within the bounds of the Sanctuary, on one full blood money and a further one-third of a blood money.

Sa'id bin al-Musayyib, Sulayman bin Yasar and Ata said: When someone kills within the bounds of the Sanctuary, there is a blood money and one-third of a blood money. And when someone kills in the sacred months while in the state of ihram, a severe blood money (diyah mughallazah) is due, that is, a harsher kind of blood money.

Ata, Sa'id bin Jubayr and Mujahid said, concerning one who kills within the Sanctuary: A blood money and one-third of a blood money are due.

One of them said (the narrator said: I think it was Sa'id bin Jubayr): The one who kills within the bounds of the Sanctuary owes one blood money and one-third of a blood money.

Ma'mar said that Imam al-Zuhri said, concerning one who kills within the bounds of the Sanctuary or in the sacred months: A blood money and one-third of a blood money are due.
