كتاب الديات

 

Chapter 7: The Blood Money Must Be Paid By The 'Aqilah; If there Is No 'Aqilah, Then It Must Be Paid From the Treasury

باب الدِّيَةِ عَلَى الْعَاقِلَةِ فَإِنْ لَمْ تَكُنْ لَهُ عَاقِلَةٌ فَفِي بَيْتِ الْمَالِ

Sunan Ibn Majah 2634

It was narrated from Miqdam Ash-Shami that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said

“I am the heir of the one who has no heir, and I will pay blood money on his behalf and inherit from him, and the maternal uncle is the heir of the one who has no heir; he pays the blood money on his behalf and inherits from him.'”

حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ دُرُسْتَ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ بُدَيْلِ بْنِ مَيْسَرَةَ، عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَلْحَةَ، عَنْ رَاشِدِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي عَامِرٍ الْهَوْزَنِيِّ، عَنِ الْمِقْدَامِ الشَّامِيِّ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏"‏ أَنَا وَارِثُ مَنْ لاَ وَارِثَ لَهُ أَعْقِلُ عَنْهُ وَأَرِثُهُ وَالْخَالُ وَارِثُ مَنْ لاَ وَارِثَ لَهُ يَعْقِلُ عَنْهُ وَيَرِثُهُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏
