Translation
of Sahih Bukhari, Book 83:
Blood
Money (Ad-Diyat)
Volume
9, Book 83, Number 1:
Narrated 'Abdullah:
A man said, "O
Allah's Apostle! Which sin is the greatest in
Allah's Sight?" The Prophet said, "To
set up a rival unto Allah though He Alone created
you . " The man said, "What is
next?" The Prophet said, "To kill your
son lest he should share your food with you."
The man said, "What is next?" The
Prophet said, "To commit illegal sexual
intercourse with the wife of your neighbor."
So Allah revealed in confirmation of this
narration:--
'And those who
invoke not with Allah, any other god. Nor kill,
such life as Allah has forbidden except for just
cause nor commit illegal sexual intercourse. And
whoever does this shall receive the punishment.'

I meet an unbeliever and we have a fight, and he
strikes my hand with the sword and cuts it off,
and then takes refuge from me under a tree, and
says, 'I have surrendered to Allah (i.e. embraced
Islam),' may I kill him after he has said
so?" Allah's Apostle said, "Do not kill
him." Al-Miqdad said, "But O Allah's
Apostle! He had chopped off one of my hands and he
said that after he had cut it off. May I kill
him?" The Prophet said. "Do not kill him
for if you kill him, he would be in the position
in which you had been before you kill him, and you
would be in the position in which he was before he
said the sentence." The Prophet also said to
Al-Miqdad, "If a faithful believer conceals
his faith (Islam) from the disbelievers, and then
when he declares his Islam, you kill him, (you
will be sinful). Remember that you were also
concealing your faith (Islam) at Mecca
before."

the morning and defeated them. A man from the
Ansar and I chased one of their men and when we
attacked him, he said, "None has the right to
be worshipped but Allah." The Ansari
refrained from killing him but I stabbed him with
my spear till I killed him. When we reached
(Medina), this news reached the Prophet. He said
to me, "O Usama! You killed him after he had
said, 'None has the right to be worshipped but
Allah?"' I said, "O Allah's Apostle! He
said so in order to save himself." The
Prophet said, "You killed him after he had
said, 'None has the right to be worshipped but
Allah." The Prophet kept on repeating that
statement till I wished I had not been a Muslim
before that day.

Apostle saying, 'If two Muslims meet each other
with their swords then (both) the killer and the
killed one are in the (Hell) Fire.' I said, 'O
Allah's Apostle! It is alright for the killer, but
what about the killed one?' He said, 'The killed
one was eager to kill his opponent."

head was crushed with stones.

A girl wearing
ornaments, went out at Medina. Somebody struck her

She raised her head, denying that. He asked her a
second time, saying, "Did so-and-so strike
you?" She raised her head, denying that. He
said for the third time, "Did so-and-so
strike you?" She lowered her head, agreeing.
Allah's Apostle then sent for the killer and
killed him between two stones.

person who commits illegal sexual intercourse and
the one who reverts from Islam (apostate) and
leaves the Muslims."
Volume

Narrated Anas:
A Jew killed a girl
so that he may steal her ornaments. He struck her
with a stone, and she was brought to the Prophet
while she was still alive. The Prophet asked her,
"Did such-and-such person strike you?"
She gestured with her head, expressing denial. He
asked her for the second time, and she again
gestured with her head, expressing denial. When he
asked her for the third time, she beckoned,
"Yes." So the Prophet killed him (the
Jew) with two stones.
Volume
9, Book 83, Number 19:
Narrated Abu
Huraira:
In the year of the
Conquest of Mecca, the tribe of Khuza'a killed a
man from the tribe of Bam Laith in revenge for a
killed person belonging to them in the Pre-lslamic
Period of Ignorance. So Allah's Apostle got up
saying, "Allah held back the (army having)
elephants from Mecca, but He let His Apostle and
the believers overpower the infidels (of Mecca).
Beware! (Mecca is a sanctuary)! Verily! Fighting
in Mecca was not permitted for anybody before me,
nor will it be permitted for anybody after me; It
was permitted for me only for a while (an hour or
so) of that day. No doubt! It is at this moment a
sanctuary; its thorny shrubs should not be
uprooted; its trees should not be cut down; and
its Luqata (fallen things) should not be picked up
except by the one who would look for its owner.
And if somebody is killed, his closest relative
has the right to choose one of two things, i.e.,
either the Blood money or retaliation by having
the killer killed." Then a man from Yemen,
called Abu Shah, stood up and said, "Write
that) for me, O Allah's Apostle!" Allah's
Apostle said (to his companions), "Write that
for Abu Shah." Then another man from Quraish
got up, saying, "O Allah's Apostle! Except
Al-Idhkhir (a special kind of grass) as we use it
in our houses and for graves." Allah's
Apostle said, "Except Al-idhkkir."
Volume
9, Book 83, Number 20:
Narrated Ibn 'Abbas:
For the children of
Israel the punishment for crime was Al-Qisas only
(i.e., the law of equality in punishment) and the
payment of Blood money was not permitted as an
alternate. But Allah said to this nation
(Muslims): 'O you who believe! Qisas is prescribed
for you in case of murder, .....(up to) ...end of
the Verse. (2.178)
Ibn 'Abbas added:
Remission (forgiveness) in this Verse, means to
accept the Blood-money in an intentional murder.
Ibn 'Abbas added: The Verse: 'Then the relatives
should demand Blood-money in a reasonable manner.'
(2.178) means that the demand should be reasonable
and it is to be compensated with handsome
gratitude.
Volume
9, Book 83, Number 21:
Narrated Ibn 'Abbas:
The Prophet said,
"The most hated persons to Allah are three:
(1) A person who deviates from the right conduct,
i.e., an evil doer, in the Haram (sanctuaries of
Mecca and Medina); (2) a person who seeks that the
traditions of the Pre-lslamic Period of Ignorance,
should remain in Islam (3) and a person who seeks
to shed somebody's blood without any right."

attacked the back files (mistaking them for the
enemy) till they killed Al-Yaman. Hudhaifa (bin

head of a girl between two stones. It was said to

confessed. The Prophet ordered that his head be
crushed with the stones. (Hammam said, "with
two stones.")

into the mouth of the Prophet during his ailment.

mouth." (We thought he said that) out of the
aversion a patient usually has for medicines. When
he improved and felt better he said, "There
is none of you but will be forced to drink
medicine, except Al-'Abbas, for he did not witness
your deed."

Huraira:

army. Hudhaifa looked, and behold, there was his
father, Al-Yaman (being attacked) ! He shouted (to
his companions), "O Allah's worshipers, my
father, my father!" But by Allah, they did
not stop till they killed him (i.e., Hudhaifa's
father). Hudhaifa said, "May Allah forgive
you." ('Urwa said, Hudhaifa continued asking
Allah's Forgiveness for the killer of his father
till he died.

We went out with
the Prophet to Khaibar. A man (from the
companions) said, "O 'Amir! Let us hear some
of your Huda (camel-driving songs.)" So he
sang some of them (i.e. a lyric in harmony with
the camels walk). The Prophet said, "Who is
the driver (of these camels)?" They said,
"Amir." The Prophet said, "May
Allah bestow His Mercy on him !" The people
said, "O Allah's Apostle! Would that you let
us enjoy his company longer!" Then 'Amir was
killed the following morning. The people said,
"The good deeds of 'Amir are lost as he has
killed himself." I returned at the time while
they were talking about that. I went to the
Prophet and said, "O Allah's Prophet! Let my
father be sacrificed for you! The people claim
that 'Amir's good deeds are lost." The
Prophet said, "Whoever says so is a liar, for
'Amir will have a double reward as he exerted
himself to obey Allah and fought in Allah's Cause.
No other way of killing would have granted him
greater reward."

brother as a male camel bites. (Go away), there is
no Diya (Blood-money) for you."

Narrated 'Aisha:
We poured medicine
into the mouth of Allah's Apostle during his
illness, and he pointed out to us intending to
say, "Don't pour medicine into my
mouth." We thought that his refusal was out
of the aversion a patient usually has for
medicine. When he improved and felt a bit better
he said (to us.) "Didn't I forbid you to pour
medicine into my mouth?" We said, "We
thought (you did so) because of the aversion, one
usually have for medicine." Allah's Apostle
said, "There is none of you but will be
forced to drink medicine, and I will watch you,
except Al-'Abbas, for he did not witness this act
of yours."
Volume
9, Book 83, Number 36:
Narrated Sahl bin
Abi Hathma:
(a man from the
Ansar) that a number of people from his tribe went
to Khaibar and dispersed, and then they found one
of them murdered. They said to the people with
whom the corpse had been found, "You have
killed our companion!" Those people said,
"Neither have we killed him, nor do we know
his killer." The bereaved group went to the
Prophet and said, "O Allah's Apostle! We went
to Khaibar and found one of us murdered." The
Prophet said, "Let the older among you come
forward and speak." Then the Prophet said, to
them, "Bring your proof against the
killer." They said "We have no
proof." The Prophet said, "Then they
(the defendants) will take an oath." They
said, "We do not accept the oaths of the
Jews." Allah's Apostle did not like that the
Blood-money of the killed one be lost without
compensation, so he paid one-hundred camels out of
the camels of Zakat (to the relatives of the
deceased) as Diya (Blood-money).
Volume
9, Book 83, Number 37:
Narrated Abu Qilaba:
Once 'Umar bin
'Abdul 'Aziz sat on his throne in the courtyard of
his house so that the people might gather before
him. Then he admitted them and (when they came
in), he said, "What do you think of Al-Qasama?"
They said, "We say that it is lawful to
depend on Al-Qasama in Qisas, as the previous
Muslim Caliphs carried out Qisas depending on
it." Then he said to me, "O Abu Qilaba!
What do you say about it?" He let me appear
before the people and I said, "O Chief of the
Believers! You have the chiefs of the army staff
and the nobles of the Arabs. If fifty of them
testified that a married man had committed illegal
sexual intercourse in Damascus but they had not
seen him (doing so), would you stone him?" He
said, "No." I said, "If fifty of
them testified that a man had committed theft in
Hums, would you cut off his hand though they did
not see him?" He replied, "No." I
said, "By Allah, Allah's Apostle never killed
anyone except in one of the following three
situations: (1) A person who killed somebody
unjustly, was killed (in Qisas,) (2) a married
person who committed illegal sexual intercourse
and (3) a man who fought against Allah and His
Apostle and deserted Islam and became an
apostate." Then the people said, "Didn't
Anas bin Malik narrate that Allah's Apostle cut
off the hands of the thieves, branded their eyes
and then, threw them in the sun?" I said,
"I shall tell you the narration of Anas. Anas
said: "Eight persons from the tribe of 'Ukl
came to Allah's Apostle and gave the Pledge of
allegiance for Islam (became Muslim). The climate
of the place (Medina) did not suit them, so they
became sick and complained about that to Allah's
Apostle. He said (to them ), "Won't you go
out with the shepherd of our camels and drink of
the camels' milk and urine (as medicine)?"
They said, "Yes." So they went out and
drank the camels' milk and urine, and after they
became healthy, they killed the shepherd of
Allah's Apostle and took away all the camels. This
news reached Allah's Apostle , so he sent (men) to
follow their traces and they were captured and
brought (to the Prophet). He then ordered to cut
their hands and feet, and their eyes were branded
with heated pieces of iron, and then he threw them
in the sun till they died." I said,
"What can be worse than what those people
did? They deserted Islam, committed murder and
theft."
Then 'Anbasa bin
Said said, "By Allah, I never heard a
narration like this of today." I said,
"O 'Anbasa! You deny my narration?" 'Anbasa
said, "No, but you have related the narration
in the way it should be related. By Allah, these
people are in welfare as long as this Sheikh (Abu
Qilaba) is among them." I added, "Indeed
in this event there has been a tradition set by
Allah's Apostle. The narrator added: Some Ansari
people came to the Prophet and discussed some
matters with him, a man from amongst them went out
and was murdered. Those people went out after him,
and behold, their companion was swimming in blood.
They returned to Allah's Apostle and said to him,
"O Allah's Apostle, we have found our
companion who had talked with us and gone out
before us, swimming in blood (killed)."
Allah's Apostle went out and asked them,
"Whom do you suspect or whom do you think has
killed him?" They said, "We think that
the Jews have killed him." The Prophet sent
for the Jews and asked them, "Did you kill
this (person)?" They replied, "No."
He asked the Al-Ansars, "Do you agree that I
let fifty Jews take an oath that they have not
killed him?" They said, "It matters
little for the Jews to kill us all and then take
false oaths." He said, "Then would you
like to receive the Diya after fifty of you have
taken an oath (that the Jews have killed your
man)?" They said, "We will not take the
oath." Then the Prophet himself paid them the
Diya (Blood-money)." The narrator added,
"The tribe of Hudhail repudiated one of their
men (for his evil conduct) in the Pre-lslamic
period of Ignorance.
Then, at a place
called Al-Batha' (near Mecca), the man attacked a
Yemenite family at night to steal from them, but
a. man from the family noticed him and struck him
with his sword and killed him. The tribe of
Hudhail came and captured the Yemenite and brought
him to 'Umar during the Hajj season and said,
"He has killed our companion." The
Yemenite said, "But these people had
repudiated him (i.e., their companion)." 'Umar
said, "Let fifty persons of Hudhail swear
that they had not repudiated him." So
forty-nine of them took the oath and then a person
belonging to them, came from Sham and they
requested him to swear similarly, but he paid
one-thousand Dirhams instead of taking the oath.
They called another man instead of him and the new
man shook hands with the brother of the deceased.
Some people said, "We and those fifty men who
had taken false oaths (Al-Qasama) set out, and
when they reached a place called Nakhlah, it
started raining so they entered a cave in the
mountain, and the cave collapsed on those fifty
men who took the false oath, and all of them died
except the two persons who had shaken hands with
each other. They escaped death but a stone fell on
the leg of the brother of the deceased and broke
it, whereupon he survived for one year and then
died." I further said, "'Abdul Malik bin
Marwan sentenced a man to death in Qisas (equality
in punishment) for murder, basing his judgment on
Al-Qasama, but later on he regretted that judgment
and ordered that the names of the fifty persons
who had taken the oath (Al-Qasama), be erased from
the register, and he exiled them in Sham."

rubbing his head. So when Allah's Apostle saw him,
he said (to him), "If I had been sure that
you were looking at me (through the door), I would
have poked your eye with this (sharp iron
bar)." Allah's Apostle added, "The
asking for permission to enter has been enjoined
so that one may not look unlawfully (at what there
is in the house without the permission of its
people)."

Narrated Abu
Huraira:
Allah's Apostle
said, "There is no Diya for persons killed by
animals or for the one who has been killed
accidentally by falling into a well or for the one
killed in a mine. And one-fifth of Rikaz
(treasures buried before the Islamic era) is to be
given to the state."
Volume
9, Book 83, Number 48:
Narrated Abu
Huraira:
The Prophet said,
"There is no Diya for a person injured or
killed by an animal (going about without somebody
to control it) and similarly, there is no Diya for
the one who falls and dies in a well, and also the
one who dies in a mine. As regards the Ar-Rikaz
(buried wealth), one-fifth thereof is for the
state."
Volume

Narrated 'Abdullah
bin 'Amr:

"Whoever killed a Mu'ahid (a person who is

its fragrance can be smelt at a distance of forty
years (of traveling)."
Volume
9, Book 83, Number 50:
Narrated Abu
Juhaifa:
I asked 'Ali
"Do you have anything Divine literature
besides what is in the Qur'an?" Or, as Uyaina
once said, "Apart from what the people
have?" 'Ali said, "By Him Who made the
grain split (germinate) and created the soul, we
have nothing except what is in the Quran and the
ability (gift) of understanding Allah's Book which
He may endow a man, with and what is written in
this sheet of paper." I asked, "What is
on this paper?" He replied, "The legal
regulations of Diya (Blood-money) and the (ransom
for) releasing of the captives, and the judgment
that no Muslim should be killed in Qisas (equality
in punishment) for killing a Kafir
(disbeliever)."
Volume
9, Book 83, Number 51:
Narrated Abu Said:
The Prophet said,
"Do not prefer some prophets to others."
Volume
9, Book 83, Number 52:
Narrated Abu Said
Al-Khudri:
A Jew whose face
had been slapped (by someone), came to the Prophet
and said, "O Muhammad! A man from your Ansari
companions slapped me. " The Prophet said,
"Call him". They called him and the
Prophet asked him, "Why did you slap his
face?" He said, "O Allah's Apostle!
While I was passing by the Jews, I heard him
saying, 'By Him Who chose Moses above all the
human beings.' I said (protestingly), 'Even above
Muhammad?' So I became furious and slapped
him." The Prophet said, "Do not give me
preference to other prophets, for the people will
become unconscious on the Day of Resurrection and
I will be the first to gain conscious, and behold,
I will Find Moses holding one of the pillars of
the Throne (of Allah). Then I will not know
whether he has become conscious before me or he
has been exempted because of his unconsciousness
at the mountain (during his worldly life) which he
received."
