6910. Narrated Abū Hurairah رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ: Two women from Hudhail fought with each other and one of them hit the other with a stone that killed her and what was in her womb (the foetus). The relatives of the killer and the relatives of the victim submitted their case to the Prophet ﷺ who judged that the Diya for the foetus was a male or female slave, and the Diya for the killed woman was to be paid by the ʿAṣaba of the killer.

Arabic text

6910 - حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا يُونُسُ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ المُسَيِّبِ، وَأَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ: أَنَّ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، قَالَ: اقْتَتَلَتِ امْرَأَتَانِ مِنْ هُذَيْلٍ، فَرَمَتْ إِحْدَاهُمَا الأُخْرَى بِحَجَرٍ فَقَتَلَتْهَا وَمَا فِي بَطْنِهَا، فَاخْتَصَمُوا إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، «فَقَضَى أَنَّ دِيَةَ جَنِينِهَا غُرَّةٌ، عَبْدٌ أَوْ وَلِيدَةٌ، وَقَضَى أَنَّ دِيَةَ المَرْأَةِ عَلَى عَاقِلَتِهَا»
