‘Ali said that the blood wit for what looked like intentional murder was in three parts:thirty-three she-camels in their fourth year, thirty- three she-camels in their fifth year, and thirty-four she-camels in the sixth year up to the ninth, all pregnant. In a version he said that the blood wit for unintentional murder was in four parts: twenty-five she-camels in their fourth year, twenty-five she-camels in their fifth year, twenty-five she-camels in their third year, and twenty-five she-camels in their second year. Abu Dawud transmitted it.

Mujahid said ‘Umar gave judgment that the blood wit for what resembled intentional murder should be thirty she-camels in their fourth year, thirty she-camels in their fifth year, and forty pregnant she-camels in their sixth year up to the ninth. Abu Dawud transmitted it.

Sa'id b. al-Musayyib said God’s Messenger gave judgment that a male or girl slave of the best quality should be paid for a child which is killed in its mother’s womb. When the one against whom this judgment was given asked,“How should I be fined for one who has not eaten or drunk, or spoken, or raised his voice?”adding that compensation is not to be paid for such, God’s Messenger said,“This man simply belongs to the kahins.”Malik and Nasa’i transmitted it in mursal.

Abu Dawud transmitted it on his authority on the authority of Abu Huraira with a fully connected isnad.

Abu Huraira reported God’s Messenger as saying,“No retaliation is payable for a wound caused by a dumb animal, for a mine, or for a well.”* (Bukhari and Muslim.) * A longer form is given on p. 380. The reference is said to be an animal which is not at the time under anyone's charge. No responsibility attaches to anyone who has dug a mine or a well in a place where he is entitled to do so if someone falls in.

Ya’ la b. Umayya said:I went with God’s Messenger on the expedition of the army of distress,* and I had a hired servant who fought with a man, one of whom bit the other’s hand. The one who was bitten drew away his hand from the mouth of the one who bit him, dislodging his front tooth which fell out. He went to the Prophet, but he imposed no retaliation for his front tooth, saying, ‘Could he be expected to leave his hand in your mouth when you were crunching it like a male camel?”(Bukhari and Muslim.) * This refers to the expedition to Tabuk in 9 A H. Cf. Al-Qur'an, 9:117.

‘Abdallah b. 'Amr told of hearing God’s Messenger say,“He who is killed protecting his property is a martyr.”(Bukhari and Muslim.)

Abu Huraira told that a man came and asked God’s Messenger to tell him what he should do if a man came wanting to take his property. He replied,“Do not give him your property.”He asked him to tell him what to do if the man fought with him, and he replied,“Fight with him.”He asked him to tell him what would happen if the man killed him, and he replied,“You will be a martyr.”He asked him to tell him what would happen if he killed the man, and he replied,“He will go to hell.”Muslim transmitted it.

He told that he heard God’s Messenger say,“If anyone were to look into your house without receiving your permission and you were to throw a pebble at him and put out his eye, you would be guilty of no offence.”(Bukhari and Muslim)

Sahl b. Sa'd said that a man looked through a hole in God’s Messenger’s door when God’s Messenger had a spike with which he was scratching his head, so he said,“If I knew that you were seeing me I would poke it in your eyes, for asking permission has been appointed only on account of what people may see.”(Bukhari and Muslim.)
