Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah

Hazrat Simak narrates that Hazrat Abdur Rahman bin Qaqa’ said: I invited a few people to my house; these people ate food and drank wine, becoming intoxicated, and then picked up the house knives and blades. Then, by causing a commotion with them, some of them wounded others among themselves. There were a total of four people; thus, two died and two survived. So Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) made blood money obligatory upon all four of them, and reduced it for the wounded ones in proportion to the injuries they had sustained.

Hazrat Aamir narrates that two men were brought to Hazrat Hasan bin Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) who had killed three people, while both of them were also injured. Regarding this, Hazrat Hasan bin Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Both these men will be liable for the blood money of all three murdered persons, and from both of them, the amount corresponding to the injuries of the two men will be reduced.

Hazrat Ibn Jurayj states that Hazrat Ata and Hazrat Ibn Abi Mulaika said: If a person kills someone and the murdered person had wounded the killer, then the killer will be killed in retribution, and the family of the murdered person will pay the blood money for the wound of the killer.

Hazrat Mughira narrates that Ibrahim said: In a house, some people were found murdered and some injured, so blood money for some of them was imposed upon others among them.

Hazrat Shaibani narrates that Hazrat Sha'bi said: Some people from the tribe of Zararah went out and they fought among themselves, so some of them killed others. Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) made the blood money of the slain obligatory and reduced the compensation for the wounded according to the extent of their wounds.
