كتاب العقولBook: On the Explanation of Blood Money
بَابُ عَقْلِ الْجَنِينِBlood money for a fetus
Hadith 1505B3
قَالَ مَالِكٌ : وَإِذَا قَتَلَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ رَجُلًا أَوِ امْرَأَةً عَمْدًا، وَالَّتِي قَتَلَتْ حَامِلٌ لَمْ يُقَدْ مِنْهَا حَتَّى تَضَعَ حَمْلَهَا، وَإِنْ قُتِلَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ وَهِيَ حَامِلٌ عَمْدًا أَوْ خَطَأً فَلَيْسَ عَلَى مَنْ قَتَلَهَا فِي جَنِينِهَا شَيْءٌ، فَإِنْ قُتِلَتْ عَمْدًا قُتِلَ الَّذِي قَتَلَهَا، وَلَيْسَ فِي جَنِينِهَا دِيَةٌ، وَإِنْ قُتِلَتْ خَطَأً فَعَلَى عَاقِلَةِ قَاتِلِهَا دِيَتُهَا، وَلَيْسَ فِي جَنِينِهَا دِيَةٌ. ¤
Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, said that if a pregnant woman kills a man or a woman, retribution (qisas) should not be taken from her until she gives birth. If someone kills a pregnant woman, whether intentionally or by mistake, the blood money (diyah) for her fetus will not be obligatory. Rather, if she was killed intentionally, the killer will be killed, and if she was killed by mistake, the blood money for the woman will be obligatory upon the killer’s ‘aqilah (male relatives responsible for blood money).
