Sahih al-Bukhari
Blood Money (Ad-Diyat)
Chapter: The Diya is to be collected from the father of the killer and his ‘Asaba but not from the killer’s children
Narrated Abu Huraira:
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) gave a verdict regarding an aborted fetus of a woman from Bani Lihyan that the killer (of the fetus) should give a male or female slave (as a Diya) but the woman who was required to give the slave, died, so Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) gave the verdict that her inheritance be given to her children and her husband and the Diya be paid by her 'Asaba.
