موطا امام مالك رواية يحييٰ
Muwatta Imam Malik (Riwayat Yahya)
كتاب العقولBook: On the Explanation of Blood Money
بَابُ مَا جَاءَ فِي عَقْلِ الْعَيْنِ إِذَا ذَهَبَ بَصَرُهَاWhat is reported about blood money for the eye if sight is lost
Hadith 1508B2
قَالَ مَالِكٌ : الْأَمْرُ عِنْدَنَا فِي الْعَيْنِ الْقَائِمَةِ الْعَوْرَاءِ، إِذَا طَفِئَتْ، وَفِي الْيَدِ الشَّلَّاءِ إِذَا قُطِعَتْ، إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ فِي ذَلِكَ إِلَّا الِاجْتِهَادُ، وَلَيْسَ فِي ذَلِكَ عَقْلٌ مُسَمًّى.
Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, said that if a person's eye was intact but had no sight, and someone destroyed it, or if a hand was paralyzed and someone cut it off, then blood money (diyah) will not be obligatory; rather, whatever is deemed appropriate by the opinion of the people will be given.
