Hadith record

Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Ibn Mahboub, from Abdul Rahman, (The narrator) says, ‘I asked Abu Abdullah asws about a man who killed two men deliberately, and for both of them were guardians. So the guardians of one of the two forgave and the other ones refused. So he asws said: ‘The ones who did not forgive can kill him, and if they so like to take the wergild, they can take it’. Abdul Rahman said, ‘So I said to Abu Abdullah asws , ‘So two men both kill a man deliberately, and for him are two guardians, so one of the guardians forgives?’ So he asws said: ‘When one of the guardians forgives, the killing is staved off from them both, and the wergild would be dropped from both of them by the measurement of the share of the one who forgave, and the remainder would be paid from both their wealth to the one who did not forgive’.
