  10. Evidence from the Qur’an and Sunnah

  11. Deliberate murder: • Allah says: • ﴿وَلَكُمْ فِى الْقِصَاصِ حَيَاةٌ يَا أُوْلِى الأَلْبَابِ﴾ • [البقرة: 179]

  12. This means: • “And there is (a saving of) life for you in Al-Qisas (the Law of Equality in punishment), O men of understanding.” • (Al-Baqarah: 179)

  13. And says: • ﴿ وَمَن يَقْتُلْ مُؤْمِنًا مُّتَعَمِّدًا فَجَزَاؤُهُ جَهَنَّمُ خَالِداً فِيهَا وَغَضِبَ اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَلَعَنَهُ وَأَعَدَّ لَهُ عَذَابًا عَظِيمًا﴾ • [النساء:93]

  14. This means: • “And whoever kills a believer intentionally, his recompense is Hell to abide therein, and the Wrath and the Curse of Allah are upon him, and a great punishment is prepared for him.” • (An-Nisa’: 93)

  15. And: • ﴿فَمَنْ عُفِيَ لَهُ مِنْ أَخِيهِ شَيْءٌ فَاتِّبَاعٌ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَأَدَاءٌ إِلَيْهِ  بِإِحْسَانٍ﴾ • [البقرة: 178]

  16. This means: • “But if the killer is forgiven by the brother (or the relatives, etc.) of the killed against blood-money, then adhering to it with fairness and payment of the blood money, to the heir should be made in fairness.” • (Al-Baqarah: 178)

  17. Allah says: • ﴿فَمَنْ عَفَا وَأَصْلَحَ فَأَجْرُهُ عَلَى اللهِ﴾ • [الشورى: 40]

  18. This means: • “But whoever forgives and makes reconciliation, his reward is due from Allah.” • (Ash-Shura: 40)

  19. And says: • ﴿وَكَتَبْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ فِيهَا أَنَّ النَّفْسَ بِالنَّفْسِ ... ﴾ • [المائدة:45]

  20. This means: • “And We ordained therein for them: "Life for life."” (Al-Ma’idah: 45)

  21. The Messenger of Allah (SAWS) said: • “The first (thing) that will be decided among people on the Day of Judgment will pertain to bloodshed.” • (Reported by al-Bukhariyy and Muslim)

  22. He (SAWS) also said: • “A believer continues to stick to his faith as long as he does not shed blood unlawfully.” • (Reported by al-Bukhariyy)

  23. He (SAWS) also said: • “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.” (Reported by al-Bukhariyy and Muslim)

  24. He (SAWS) also said: • “Allah augments the honor of him who forgives.” • (Reported by Muslim)

  25. He (SAWS) also said: • “A believer will not be killed for an infidel.” • (Reported by al-Bukhariyy)

  26. The Prophet (SAWS) said: • “A father shall not be killed for his son.” (Reported by Ahmad)

  27. Murder by mistake or near-deliberate injury: • Allah says: • ﴿وَمَن قَتَلَ مُؤْمِنًا خَطَـئًا فَتَحْرِيرُ رَقَبَةٍ مُّؤْمِنَةٍ وَدِيَةٌ مُّسَلَّمَةٌ إِلَى أَهْلِهِ إِلاَّ أَن يَصَّدَّقُوا﴾ • [النساء:92]

  28. This means: • “And whosoever kills a believer by mistake, (it is ordained that) he must set free a believing slave and a compensation (blood money, i.e Diyah) be given to the deceased's family, unless they remit it.” (An-Nisa’: 92)

  29. Indemnity: • `Abdullah Ibn-`Abbas (RA) narrated: • “A man of Banu `Adi was killed. The Prophet (SAWS) fixed his blood money at the rate of twelve thousand (dirhams).” (Reported by an-Nasa’iyy and Abu-Dawud)

  30. He (SAWS) also said: • “The blood money for unintentional murder which appears intentional, such as is done with a whip and a stick, is one hundred camels, forty of which are pregnant.” • (Reported by an-Nasa’iyy)

  31. He (SAWS) also said: • “Blood money for every wound which lays bare a bone is five camels.” • (Reported by at-Tirmidhiyy)

  32. The Prophet (SAWS) enjoined (as a retaliation) ten camels for the wound which splinters a bone in the body. • (Reported by Al-Bayhaqiyy and `Abdur-Razzaq)

  33. He (SAWS) also said: • “Ten camels were to be paid for every finger, and five camels for every tooth. The fingers are equal and the teeth are equal.” • (Reported by Ahmad)

  34. Wounds: • Allah says: • ﴿... وَالْعَيْنَ بِالْعَيْنِ وَالأَنفَ بِالأَنفِ وَالأُذُنَ بِالأُذُنِ وَالسِّنَّ بِالسِّنِّ وَالْجُرُوحَ قِصَاصٌ...﴾ • [المائدة: 45]

  35. This means: • “Eye for eye, nose for nose, ear for ear, tooth for tooth, and wounds equal for equal.” • (Al-Ma’idah: 45)
