4805. It was narrated from 'Amr bin Shu'aib, from his father, from his grandfather, that the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: "Whoever is killed by mistake, his ransom is one hundred camels: Thirty Bint Makhâd, thirty Bint Labûn, thirty Hîqqah and ten Bin Labûn."[1] The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ used to fix the value (of the Diyah for accidental killing) among town-dwellers at four hundred Dînârs or the equivalent value in silver. When he calculated the price in terms of people with camels (for Bedouin), it would vary from one time to another. When prices rose, the value in Dînârs would rise, and when prices fell the value in Dînârs would fall. At the time of the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ the value was between four hundred and eight hundred Dînârs, or the equivalent value in silver, eight thousand Dirhams. And the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ ruled that if a person's blood money was paid in cattle, among those who kept cattle, the amount was two hundred cows; and if a person's blood money was paid in sheep, among those who kept sheep, the value was two thousand sheep. The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ ruled that the blood money is part of the estate, to be divided among the heirs of the victim according to their allotted shares, and whatever is left over is for the ʿAṣabah. And the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ ruled that if a woman commits murder then her ʿAṣabah, whoever they may be, must pay the blood money, but they do not inherit anything except that which is left over from her heirs; if a woman is killed then her blood money is to be shared among her heirs, and they may kill her killer.
