فِي مُكَاتَبٍ قَتَلَ رَجُلًا خَطَأً قَالَ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ دِيَتِهِ بِقَدْرِ مَا أُعْتِقَ وَ عَلَى مَوْلَاهُ مَا بَقِيَ مِنْ قِيمَةِ الْمَمْلُوكِ فَإِنْ عَجَزَ الْمُكَاتَبُ فَلَا عَاقِلَةَ لَهُ إِنَّمَا ذَلِكَ عَلَى إِمَامِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ .
Translation
Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Ismail Bin Marrar, from Yunus, from Abdullah Bin Sinan, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> having said regarding a contracted slave who killed a man in error. He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Upon him from his wergild, is in proportion to what he is free, and upon his master is what remains from the value of the price. So if the contracted slave is frustrated (from paying), so there is no blood (compensation) for him. But rather, that is upon the Imam<sup>asws</sup> of the Muslims’.
