Chapter on Those Who Have No Blood Money in Cases of Injury or Killing
وَ رَوَى مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ اَلْفُضَيْلِ عَنْ أَبِي اَلصَّبَّاحِ اَلْكِنَانِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: "كَانَ صِبْيَانٌ فِي زَمَنِ أَمِيرِ اَلْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ يَلْعَبُونَ بِأَخْطَارٍ لَهُمْ فَرَمَى أَحَدُهُمْ بِخَطَرِهِ فَدَقَّ رَبَاعِيَةَ صَاحِبِهِ فَرُفِعَ ذَلِكَ إِلَى أَمِيرِ اَلْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ فَأَقَامَ اَلرَّامِي اَلْبَيِّنَةَ بِأَنَّهُ قَدْ قَالَ حَذَارِ فَدَرَأَ أَمِيرُ اَلْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنْهُ اَلْقِصَاصَ ثُمَّ قَالَ "قَدْ أَعْذَرَ مَنْ حَذَّرَ" ".
Muhammad ibn Al-Fudayl narrated from Abu Al-Ṣabbah Al-Kinani from Abu Abdullah Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام, who said: "During the time of the Commander of the Faithful عليه السلام, some children were playing with their arrows. One of them shot his arrow and broke his companion's front tooth. The matter was brought to the Commander of the Faithful عليه السلام. The shooter presented evidence that he had warned by saying, 'Be careful!' So, the Commander of the Faithful عليه السلام dismissed the retribution (qisas) from him and then said: 'The one who gives a warning has fulfilled his responsibility.'"
