   أَوَّلُ قَسَامَةٍ كَانَتْ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ كَانَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَنِي هَاشِمٍ اسْتَأْجَرَ رَجُلًا مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ مِنْ فَخِذٍ أُخْرَى قَالَ فَانْطَلَقَ مَعَهُ فِي إِبِلِهِ فَمَرَّ بِهِ رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَنِي هَاشِمٍ قَدِ انْقَطَعَتْ عُرْوَةُ جُوَالِقِهِ فَقَالَ أَغِثْنِي بِعِقَالٍ أَشُدُّ بِهِ عُرْوَةَ جُوَالِقِي لَا تَنْفِرُ الْإِبِلُ فَأَعْطَاهُ عِقَالًا فَشَدَّ بِهِ عُرْوَةَ جُوَالِقِهِ فَلَمَّا نَزَلُوا عُقِلَتِ الْإِبِلُ إِلَّا بَعِيرًا وَاحِدًا فَقَالَ الَّذِي اسْتَأْجَرَهُ مَا شَأْنُ هَذَا الْبَعِيرِ لَمْ يُعْقَلْ مِنْ بَيْنِ الْإِبِلِ قَالَ لَيْسَ لَهُ عِقَالٌ قَالَ فَأَيْنَ عِقَالُهُ؟ قَالَ مَرَّ بِي رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَنِي هَاشِمٍ قَدِ انْقَطَعَتْ عُرْوَةُ جُوَالِقِهِ فَاسْتَغَاثَنِي قَالَ أَغِثْنِي بِعِقَالٍ أَشُدُّ بِهِ عُرْوَةَ جُوَالِقِي لَا تَنْفِرُ الْإِبِلُ فَأَعْطَيْتُهُ عِقَالَهُ فَحَذَفَهُ بِعَصًا كَانَ فِيهَا أَجَلُهُ فَمَرَّ بِهِ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْيَمَنِ قَالَ أَتَشْهَدُ الْمَوْسِمَ؟ قَالَ مَا أَشْهَدُ وَرُبَّمَا شَهِدْتُ قَالَ هَلْ أَنْتَ مُبَلِّغٌ عَنِّي رِسَالَةً مَرَّةً مِنَ الدَّهْرِ؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ إِذَا شَهِدْتَ الْمَوْسِمَ فَنَادِ يَا آلَ قُرَيْشٍ فَإِذَا أَجَابُوكَ فَنَادِ يَا آلَ بَنِي هَاشِمٍ فَإِذَا أَجَابُوكَ فَسَلْ عَنْ أَبِي طَالِبٍ [316] فَأَخْبِرْهُ أَنَّ فُلَانًا قَتَلَنِي فِي عِقَالٍ قَالَ وَمَاتَ الْمُسْتَأْجَرُ فَلَمَّا قَدِمَ الَّذِي اسْتَأْجَرَهُ أَتَاهُ أَبُو طَالِبٍ فَقَالَ مَا فَعَلَ صَاحِبُنَا؟ قَالَ مَرِضَ فَأَحْسَنْتُ الْقِيَامَ عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ مَاتَ فَوَلِيتُ دَفْنَهُ فَقَالَ كَانَ أَهْلُ ذَلِكَ مِنْكَ قَالَ فَمَكَثَ حِينًا ثُمَّ إِنَّ الرَّجُلَ الْيَمَانِيَّ الَّذِي كَانَ أَوْصَى إِلَيْهِ أَنْ يُبَلِّغَ عَنْهُ وَافَى الْمَوْسِمَ فَقَالَ يَا آلَ قُرَيْشٍ قَالُوا هَذِهِ قُرَيْشٌ قَالَ يَا آلَ بَنِي هَاشِمٍ قَالُوا هَذِهِ بَنُو هَاشِمٍ قَالَ أَيْنَ أَبُو طَالِبٍ؟ قَالُوا هَذَا أَبُو طَالِبٍ قَالَ أَمَرَنِي فُلَانٌ أَنْ أُبَلِّغَكَ رِسَالَةً أَنَّ فُلَانًا قَتَلَهُ فِي عِقَالٍ فَأَتَاهُ أَبُو طَالِبٍ فَقَالَ اخْتَرْ مِنَّا إِحْدَى ثَلَاثٍ إِنْ شِئْتَ أَنْ تُؤَدِّيَ مِائَةً مِنَ الْإِبِلِ فَإِنَّكَ قَتَلْتَ صَاحِبَنَا خَطَأً وَإِنْ شِئْتَ حَلَفَ خَمْسُونَ مِنْ قَوْمِكَ أَنَّكَ لَمْ تَقْتُلْهُ فَإِنْ أَبَيْتَ قَتَلْنَاكَ بِهِ فَأَتَى قَوْمَهُ فَذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ لَهُمْ فَقَالُوا نَحْلِفُ فَأَتَتْهُ امْرَأَةٌ مِنْ بَنِي هَاشِمٍ كَانَتْ تَحْتَ رَجُلٍ مِنْهُمْ قَدْ وَلَدَتْ لَهُ فَقَالَتْ يَا أَبَا طَالِبٍ أُحِبُّ أَنْ تُجِيزَ ابْنِي هَذَا رَجُلًا مِنَ الْخَمْسِينَ وَلَا تُصْبِرَ يَمِينَهُ فَفَعَلَ فَأَتَاهُ رَجُلٌ مِنْهُمْ فَقَالَ يَا أَبَا طَالِبٍ أَرَدْتَ خَمْسِينَ رَجُلًا أَنْ يَحْلِفُوا مَكَانَ مِائَةٍ مِنَ الْإِبِلِ يُصِيبُ كُلَّ رَجُلٍ بَعِيرَانِ فَهَذَانِ بَعِيرَانِ فَاقْبَلْهُمَا عَنِّي وَلَا تُصْبِرْ يَمِينِي حَيْثُ تُصْبَرُ الْأَيْمَانُ فَقَبِلَهُمَا وَجَاءَ ثَمَانِيَةٌ وَأَرْبَعُونَ رَجُلًا حَلَفُوا قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ «فَوَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ مَا حَالَ الْحَوْلُ وَمِنَ الثَّمَانِيَةِ وَالْأَرْبَعِينَ عَيْنٌ تَطْرِفُ»

   ✧ The first qasamah in the Jahiliyyah was this: a man of Banu Hashim hired a man of Quraysh from another clan. He set out with him with his camels. A man of Banu Hashim passed by him whose the handle of his sack had broken, so he said: 'Help me with a rope to tie the handle of my sack so that the camels do not run away.' So he gave him a rope and he tied the handle of his sack with it. When they halted, all the camels were hobbled except one camel. The one who hired him said: 'What is the matter with this camel that it has not been hobbled among the camels?' He said: 'It has no rope.' He said: 'Where is its rope?' He said: 'A man of Banu Hashim passed by me whose the handle of his sack had broken, and he asked me for help, saying: "Help me with a rope to tie the handle of my sack so that the camels do not run away." So I gave him its rope.' He struck him with a stick, and that was his death. Then a man from Yemen passed by him and said: 'Will you attend the fair?' He said: 'I do not attend it, but perhaps I may attend it.' He said: 'Will you convey a message from me once in your life?' He said: 'Yes.' He said: 'When you attend the fair, call out: O people of Quraysh! When they respond to you, call out: O people of Banu Hashim! When they respond to you, ask for Abu Talib and tell him that so-and-so killed me for the sake of a rope.' The narrator said: The hired man died. When the one who had hired him came, Abu Talib came to him and said: 'What did our companion do?' He said: 'He fell ill, and I took good care of him; then he died, and I took charge of his burial.' Abu Talib said: 'It was you who deserved that.' He remained for some time. Then the Yemeni man who had been entrusted to convey the message arrived at the fair and said: 'O people of Quraysh!' They said: 'These are Quraysh.' He said: 'O people of Banu Hashim!' They said: 'These are Banu Hashim.' He said: 'Where is Abu Talib?' They said: 'This is Abu Talib.' He said: 'So-and-so commanded me to convey to you a message: that so-and-so killed him for the sake of a rope.' Abu Talib came to the killer and said: 'Choose one of three options: if you wish, pay one hundred camels, for you killed our companion by mistake; if you wish, fifty of your people swear that you did not kill him; if you refuse, we will kill you in retaliation for him.' He went to his people and mentioned that to them. They said: 'We will swear.' A woman of Banu Hashim who was married to a man among them and had borne him a son came to Abu Talib and said: 'O Abu Talib, I would like you to excuse my son from being one of the fifty and not make him take the oath.' So he did. Then a man among them came and said: 'O Abu Talib, you wanted fifty men to swear in place of one hundred camels, so that each man would get two camels. Here are two camels, accept them from me and do not make me take the oath where oaths are taken.' He accepted them. Then forty-eight men came and swore. Ibn Abbas said: 'By the One in Whose hand is my soul, before the year had passed, not one of the forty-eight had an eye that blinked.'

   ✧ From some people among the companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ: 'The qasamah existed in the Jahiliyyah, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ confirmed it as it was in the Jahiliyyah, and he judged by it between some people of the Ansar regarding a slain man they claimed against the Jews of Khaybar.' Abu Abd al-Rahman said: Ma'mar disagreed with the two of them.

   رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «كَبِّرْ كَبِّرْ» وَتَكَلَّمَ حُوَيِّصَةُ ثُمَّ تَكَلَّمَ مُحَيِّصَةُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «إِمَّا أَنْ يَدُوا صَاحِبَكُمْ وَإِمَّا أَنْ يُؤْذَنُوا بِحَرْبٍ» فَكَتَبَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فِي ذَلِكَ فَكَتَبُوا إِنَّا وَاللهِ مَا قَتَلْنَاهُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لِحُوَيِّصَةَ وَمُحَيِّصَةَ وَعَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ «تَحْلِفُونَ وَتَسْتَحِقُّونَ دَمَ صَاحِبِكُمْ؟» قَالُوا لَا قَالَ «فَتَحْلِفُ لَكُمْ يَهُودُ» قَالُوا لَيْسُوا بِمُسْلِمِينَ قَالَ فَوَدَاهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مِنْ عِنْدِهِ فَبَعَثَ إِلَيْهِمْ بِمِائَةِ نَاقَةٍ حَتَّى أُدْخِلَتْ عَلَيْهِمُ الدَّارَ قَالَ سَهْلٌ لَقَدْ رَكَضَتْنِي مِنْهَا نَاقَةٌ حَمْرَاءُ

   ✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “Let the eldest speak, let the eldest speak.” Huwayyisah spoke, then Muhayyisah spoke. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “Either they pay the blood money for your companion, or they must be prepared for war.” The Prophet ﷺ wrote to them about that, and they wrote back: “By Allah, we did not kill him.” The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to Huwayyisah, Muhayyisah, and ‘Abd al-Rahman: “Will you swear fifty oaths and thus be entitled to the blood of your companion?” They said: “No.” He said: “Then will the Jews swear fifty oaths for you?” They said: “They are not Muslims.” So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ paid the blood money himself and sent them one hundred camels, until they were brought into the courtyard. Sahl said: “A red camel from among them kicked me.”

Sahl, who was the youngest of the group. ‘Abd al-Rahman went to speak before his two companions, but the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “Let the eldest speak first, the eldest in age.” So he fell silent, and his two companions spoke, then he spoke with them. They mentioned to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ the killing of ‘Abd Allah b. Sahl. He said to them: “Will you swear fifty oaths and thus be entitled to your companion or your killer?” They said: “How can we swear when we did not witness?” He said: “Then the Jews will absolve themselves with fifty oaths.” They said: “How can we accept the oaths of a disbelieving people?” When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saw that, he paid his blood money himself.

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “The eldest, let the eldest begin.” So the two spoke about the matter of their companion. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said—and he mentioned a word whose meaning is—“Fifty of you shall swear.” They said: “O Messenger of Allah, it is a matter we did not witness; how can we swear?” He said: “Then the Jews will absolve themselves with the oaths of fifty of them.” They said: “O Messenger of Allah, they are a disbelieving people.” So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ paid the blood money from his own resources. Sahl said: “I entered an enclosure of theirs, and a camel from those camels kicked me with a kick.”

He said, “O Prophet of Allah, this man and my brother were digging a well, and he raised the pickaxe and struck his companion’s head with it, killing him.” The Prophet ﷺ said, “Pardon him.” He refused. Then he stood up and said, “O Messenger of Allah, this man and my brother were digging a well, and he raised the pickaxe—I think he said—and struck his companion’s head with it, killing him.” He said, “Pardon him.” He refused. Then he said, “Go, for if you kill him, you will be like him.” So he went out with him until they had passed. Then we called out to him, “Do you not hear what the Messenger of Allah ﷺ says?” He returned and said, “If I kill him, I will be like him?” He said, “Yes. Pardon him.” He then went out dragging his rope until he disappeared from us.

Yes, I killed him.” He said, “How did you kill him?” He said, “He and I were gathering firewood from a tree, and he insulted me, which angered me, so I struck him on the side of his head with an axe.” The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to him, “Do you have any wealth to pay for yourself?” He said, “O Messenger of Allah, by Allah, I have nothing but my axe and my cloak.” The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to him, “Do you think your people will ransom you?” He said, “I am too insignificant to my people for that.” He threw the rope to the man and said, “Here is your companion.” When he turned away, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, “If he kills him, he will be like him.” The people caught up with the man and said to him, “Woe to you! The Messenger of Allah ﷺ says, ‘If he kills him, he will be like him.’” He returned to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, “O Messenger of Allah, I was told that you said, ‘If he kills him, he will be like him,’ and I only took him by your command.” He said, “Do you not want him to bear your sin and the sin of your companion?” He said, “Yes.” He said, “Then that is how it is.”

    ✧ The Qurayzah and the Nadir tribes existed, and the Nadir were nobler than the Qurayzah. When a man from the Qurayzah killed a man from the Nadir, he was executed for it, but when a man from the Nadir killed a man from the Qurayzah, he paid a hundred wasq of dates as blood money. When the Prophet ﷺ was sent, a man from the Nadir killed a man from the Qurayzah. They said, “Hand him over to us so we can kill him.” They said, “Between us and you is the Prophet ﷺ.” So they came to him, and the verse was revealed: {And if you judge, judge between them with justice} [al-Ma'idah: 42]. Justice is a life for a life. Then it was revealed: {Is it the judgment of ignorance they seek?} [al-Ma'idah: 50]

    ✧ Allah said in it: {So judge between them or turn away from them} [al-Ma'idah: 42] up to {the just} [al-Ma'idah: 42]. This was revealed only about the blood money between the Banu al-Nadir and Banu Qurayzah. That is because the slain of the Nadir had nobility and were paid full blood money, while the Banu Qurayzah were paid half the blood money. They brought their dispute about that to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and Allah revealed that concerning them. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ made them adhere to the truth in that matter and made the blood money equal.

The lowest of them may give protection on their behalf. Indeed, no believer is to be killed for a disbeliever, nor one with a covenant while his covenant stands.

[al-Baqarah: 178] Pardon is accepting blood money in cases of intentional killing. "Then follow up with appropriate behavior" means this one follows with appropriate behavior, and "payment to him with kindness" means this one pays with kindness. "That is an alleviation from your Lord" [al-Baqarah: 178] compared to what was prescribed for those before you; for them there was only retribution and no blood money.

    ✧ That the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “Whoever kills someone accidentally, his blood money is one hundred camels: thirty one-year-old she-camels, thirty two-year-old she-camels, thirty three-year-old she-camels, and ten two-year-old male camels.” He said: We found that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ valued it for the people of villages at four hundred dinars or its equivalent in silver. He valued it for the people of camels: when they were expensive, he raised their value, and when they were cheap, he reduced their value, down to about the time it happened. So their value in the time of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ reached between four hundred dinars and eight hundred dinars, or its equivalent in silver. And the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ruled that for those whose blood money is in cattle, it is two hundred cows, and for those whose blood money is in sheep, it is two thousand sheep. And the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ruled that the blood money is inherited according to their obligatory shares, and whatever remains is for the male relatives. And the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ruled that the woman’s male relatives pay on her behalf, whoever they may be, and they do not inherit anything from it except what remains after her heirs, and if she is killed, her blood money is divided among her heirs, and they may kill her killer. Abu Abd al-Rahman said: This is a rejected hadith, and Sulayman b. Musa is not strong in hadith, nor is Muhammad b. Rashid.

     ✧ That the Messenger of Allah ﷺ wrote to the people of Yemen a letter containing the obligatory shares, the sunnahs, and the blood monies, and sent it with Amr b. Hazm. It was read to the people of Yemen; this is its copy. He mentioned the like of it, except that he said: "And for one eye, half the blood money; and for one hand, half the blood money; and for one foot, half the blood money." Abu Abd al-Rahman said: This is more likely correct, and Allah knows best. Sulayman b. Arqam is abandoned in hadith. This hadith has also been narrated from al-Zuhri, from Yunus b. Yazid, as mursal.

     ✧ I read the letter of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ which he wrote for Amr b. Hazm when he sent him to Najran. The letter was with Abu Bakr b. Hazm. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ wrote: "This is a clarification from Allah and His Messenger: {O you who believe, fulfill the contracts} [Al-Ma'idah: 1]." He wrote verses from it until he reached {Indeed, Allah is swift in account} [Al 'Imran: 199]. Then he wrote: "This is the book of wounds. For the life, one hundred camels," and so on.
