2627. It was narrated from 'Abdullāh bin 'Amr that the Prophet ﷺ said: "Killing by mistake that resembles intentionally, is killing with a whip or stick, for which the blood money is one hundred camels, of which forty should be pregnant she-camels in the middle of their pregnancies, with their young in their wombs." (Sahih) Another chain with similar wording. (Sahih)

2627 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ الْقَاسِمَ بْنَ رَبِيعَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «قَتِيلُ الْخَطَأِ شِبْهِ الْعَمْدِ، قَتِيلُ السَّوْطِ وَالْعَصَا، مِائَةٌ مِنَ الْإِبِلِ، أَرْبَعُونَ مِنْهَا خَلِفَةً، فِي بُطُونِهَا أَوْلَادُهَا» حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ خَالِدٍ الْحَذَّاءِ، عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ رَبِيعَةَ، عَنْ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ أَوْسٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَحْوَهُ

Commentary

a. Killing by mistake that resembles intentionally killing is named so because in this killing, the purpose of the killer is not to kill but to hurt only. b. 'With their young in their wombs' means pregnant she-camels. It has been repeated only for emphasis.
