Chapter on a Man Who Bequeaths a Portion of His Wealth to Another and is Then Killed by Mistake

Hadith.5536 - Asim ibn Humayd narrated from Muhammad ibn Qays, who said: I asked Imam (as) about a man who bequeathed a portion of his wealth - a third or a fourth - to another man. Then, the man (the testator) was mistakenly killed. Imam (as) said: "The will is to be executed from his wealth and from his blood money (diyyah)."
