كتاب العقولBook: On the Explanation of Blood Money
بَابُ عَقْلِ الْجِرَاحِ فِي الْخَطَإِBlood money for wounds in accidental cases
Hadith 1500B2
قَالَ مَالِكٌ : وَلَيْسَ فِي الْجِرَاحِ فِي الْجَسَدِ إِذَا كَانَتْ خَطَأً عَقْلٌ إِذَا بَرَأَ الْجُرْحُ، وَعَادَ لِهَيْئَتِهِ، فَإِنْ كَانَ فِي شَيْءٍ مِنْ ذَلِكَ عَثَلٌ أَوْ شَيْنٌ، فَإِنَّهُ يُجْتَهَدُ فِيهِ إِلَّا الْجَائِفَةَ، فَإِنَّ فِيهَا ثُلُثَ دِيَةِ النَّفْسِ. قَالَ مَالِكٌ : وَلَيْسَ فِي مُنَقِّلَةِ الْجَسَدِ عَقْلٌ، وَهِيَ مِثْلُ مُوضِحَةِ الْجَسَدِ. ¤
Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, said that if a wound is inflicted on the body by mistake and it heals without leaving a mark, there is no blood money (diyah). If a blemish or defect remains, then blood money corresponding to it must be given. However, in the case of a jaifah (a wound reaching the body cavity), one-third of the blood money is obligatory. And for a displaced bone (munqilah) in the body, there is no blood money, just as in the case of a clarified wound (mudiha) in the body.
