يُقَادُ بِهِ وَ إِنْ لَمْ يُعْلَمْ بِهِ انْطَلَقَ إِلَى أَوْلِيَائِهِ فَأَعْلَمَهُمْ أَنَّهُ قَتَلَهُ فَإِنْ عَفَوْا عَنْهُ أَعْطَاهُمُ الدِّيَةَ وَ أَعْتَقَ رَقَبَةً وَ صَامَ شَهْرَيْنِ مُتَتابِعَيْنِ وَ تَصَدَّقَ عَلَى سِتِّينَ مِسْكِيناً.

A number of our companions, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Isa, from Al Husayn Bin Saeed, from Al Nazar Bin Suwed, from Abdullah Bin Sinan, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah asws having been asked about a man who killed a Believer and he knew he was a Believer, besides that it was anger that carried him upon killing him. Is there repentance for him when he intends for that, or there is no repentance for him?’ So he asws said: ‘He would be retaliated with, and if he does not know, he should go to his (killed one’s) guardians, so he would let them know that he has killed him. So if they were to forgive him, he would give them the wergild, and emancipate a slave, and Fast for two months consecutively, and give charity upon sixty poor ones’.
