Summary
Malik said: the matter on which there is no dispute among us, regarding one from whom blood-money was accepted for deliberate killing or any of the wounds in which retaliation applies: that its blood-money is not on the kin unless they wish; it is on the killer or wounder alone, if he has property. If he has no property, it is a debt on him, and the kin owe nothing of it unless they wish. 1
