Nasai

1؎: This hadith is weak according to the principles of hadith, but the majority of scholars hold this opinion, and in fact, some people have even reported consensus (ijma') on it. It is also said that Ibn Khuzaymah has authenticated this hadith. The meaning of the hadith is that the full blood money (diyah) for a man is one hundred camels, and in the case of intentional killing (qatl ‘amd), quasi-intentional killing (shibh al-‘amd), or accidental killing (khata’) of a woman, half the blood money, i.e., fifty camels, will be obligatory to pay. However, if the blood money is for the loss of limbs, for example, the blood money for one finger is ten camels, then suppose someone broke four fingers of a woman, the blood money would be forty camels, which is more than one-third (33) of a hundred. In this case, only twenty (20) camels will be obligatory upon the one who broke the fingers (and so on by analogy).
