4786. It was narrated that Mujâhid said: “Al-Qisâs (the Law of Equality in punishment) is prescribed for you in case of murder: the free for the free[2] The rule for the Children of Israel was Qisâs, and not Diyah. Then Allâh, the Mighty and Sublime, revealed the Diyah to them, and He revealed this ruling to this Ummah as an alleviation of the ruling that applied to the Children of Israel.” (Sahîh). ٦٩٨٤ ح: في الكبرى، وهو في السابق، [صحيح] انظر الحديث السابق، وهو في الكبرى، ح: ٦٩٨٤.

4782 - أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَعِيلَ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ حَفْصٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا وَرْقَاءُ، عَنْ عَمْرٍو، عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ قَالَ: {كُتِبَ عَلَيْكُمُ الْقِصَاصُ فِي الْقَتْلَى الْحُرُّ بِالْحُرِّ} [البقرة: 178] " قَالَ: «كَانَ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ عَلَيْهِمُ الْقِصَاصُ وَلَيْسَ عَلَيْهِمُ الدِّيَةُ، فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ عَلَيْهِمُ الدِّيَةَ، فَجَعَلَهَا عَلَى هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةِ تَخْفِيفًا عَلَى مَا كَانَ عَلَى بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ»
