إِنَّ اللَّهَ حَكَمَ فِي دِمَائِكُمْ بِغَيْرِ مَا حَكَمَ بِهِ فِي أَمْوَالِكُمْ حَكَمَ فِي أَمْوَالِكُمْ أَنَّ الْبَيِّنَةَ عَلَى الْمُدَّعِي وَ الْيَمِينَ عَلَى الْمُدَّعَى عَلَيْهِ وَ حَكَمَ فِي دِمَائِكُمْ أَنَّ الْبَيِّنَةَ عَلَى مَنِ ادُّعِيَ عَلَيْهِ وَ الْيَمِينَ عَلَى مَنِ ادَّعَى لِكَيْلَا يَبْطُلَ دَمُ امْرِئٍ مُسْلِمٍ .
Translation
Abu Ali Al Ashary, from Muhammad Bin Abdul Jabbar, from Safwan Bin Yahya, from Abdullah Bin Bukeyr, from Abu Baseer, Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> has said: ‘Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Judged regarding your blood with other than what He<sup>azwj</sup> Judged by regarding your wealth. A judgement regarding your wealth is that the (burden of) the proof is upon the claimant, and the (swearing of) the oath is upon the defendant; and a Judgement regarding your blood is that the (burden of) the proof is upon the defendant, and the (swearing of) the oath is upon the one who claims, lest the blood of a Muslim person be invalidated’.
