Hadith record

Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad and Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, both together from Ibn Mahboub, from Abdullah Bin Sinan, and Abdullah Bin Bukeyr, both together, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah asws having said: ‘Amir Al-Momineen asws judged regarding a man who found a killed person and it was not known who killed him. He asws said: ‘If it was known and there were guardians who were seeking his wergild, they would be given his wergild from the public treasury of the Muslims, and the blood of a Muslim person would not be invalidated, because his inheritance is for the Imam asws . Thus, like that, his wergild would happen to be upon the Imam asws , and he asws would Pray over him, and bury him’. He asws said: ‘And he asws judged regarding a man who was crushed by the crowd in the throng of the people, so he said, ‘His wergild is from the public treasury of the Muslims’.
