Chapter on a Man Who Bequeaths a Portion of His Wealth to Another and is Then Killed by Mistake
وَ فِي خَبَرٍ آخَرَ: سُئِلَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنْ رَجُلٍ أَوْصَى بِثُلُثِ مَالِهِ ثُمَّ قُتِلَ خَطَأً قَالَ "ثُلُثُ دِيَتِهِ دَاخِلٌ فِي وَصِيَّتِهِ".
In another narration, Abu Abdullah عليه السلام, was asked about a man who had bequeathed one-third of his wealth and was then killed by mistake. Imam عليه السلام said: "One-third of his blood money (diyyah) is included in his bequest."
