The indemnity for (killing) a free Muslim man is 1,000 mithqâls,¹⁵⁹² 12,000 dirhams,¹⁵⁹³ or 100 camels. ¹⁵⁹⁴ If (the 100 camels) is an indemnity for intentional murder, then it consists of: 30 ḥiqqah (three-year-old female camels), 30 jadha‘ah (four-year-old female camels), and 40 pregnant she-camels. It is all immediately due from the murderer’s assets. ¹⁵⁹⁵ If it is quasi-intentional manslaughter (mistaken death resulting from a deliberate assault), then the ages are the same. It is binding on the ‘âqilah (extended paternal family) over three years, with one-third of it due at the beginning of each year (since the death). If it is an indemnity for mistaken killing, it is also binding on the ‘âqilah, but it comprises: 20 bint makhâd (one-year-old female camels), 20 ibn makhâd (one-year-old male camels), 20 bint laboon (two-year-old female camels), 20 ḥiqqah, and 20 jadha‘ah.
