2646. It was narrated from 'Amr bin Shu'aib that Abu Qatadah, a man from Banu Mudlij, killed his son, and 'Umar took one hundred camels from him, thirty Hiqqah,[1] thirty Jadha'ah[2] and forty Khalifah.[3] Then he said: "Where is the brother of the slain? I heard the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ say: 'The killer does not inherit.'" (Hasan)

Arabic text

2646 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ، وَعَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الْكِنْدِيُّ قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَالِدٍ الْأَحْمَرُ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شُعَيْبٍ، أَنَّ أَبَا قَتَادَةَ - رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَنِي مُدْلِجٍ - قَتَلَ ابْنَهُ، فَأَخَذَ مِنْهُ عُمَرُ مِائَةً مِنَ الْإِبِلِ ثَلَاثِينَ حِقَّةً وَثَلَاثِينَ جَذَعَةً وَأَرْبَعِينَ خَلِفَةً، فَقَالَ: أَيْنَ أَخُو الْمَقْتُولِ؟ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «لَيْسَ لِقَاتِلٍ مِيرَاثٌ»
