4821. It was narrated that Abû Hurairah said: "The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ ruled that a male or female slave should be given (as Diyah) to a woman of Banu Lihyân whose child was miscarried and died. Then the woman to whom he had decreed that the slave should be given died, and the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ ruled that her estate belonged to her children and husband, and that the blood money was to be paid by her 'Aşabah." (Sâhîh)
4817 - أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ ابْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: «قَضَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي جَنِينِ امْرَأَةٍ مِنْ بَنِي لِحْيَانَ سَقَطَ مَيِّتًا بِغُرَّةِ عَبْدٍ أَوْ أَمَةٍ، ثُمَّ إِنَّ الْمَرْأَةَ الَّتِي قَضَى عَلَيْهَا بِالْغُرَّةِ، تُوُفِّيَتْ، فَقَضَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِأَنَّ مِيرَاثَهَا لِبَنِيهَا وَزَوْجِهَا، وَأَنَّ الْعَقْلَ عَلَى عَصَبَتِهَا»

In the event of an accidental killing, the payment of blood-wit is the responsibility of the killer; but in the act of its payment all his paternal relations participate. From the legal point of view, each one of them shall be made liable for payment of a particular fixed sum of money in installments, and they would be compelled to pay it, because in the act of accidental killing, the killer does not happen to be guilty. Although in the event of deliberate or premeditated killing, the payment of indemnity would be the responsibility of the killer, and he alone would be required to pay it, because he happens to be wholly responsible, while in the act of accidental killing, it is incumbent upon the relatives to cooperate with him. And Allâh knows best!
