Chapter on Those Who Have No Blood Money in Cases of Injury or Killing

وَ رَوَى حَمَّادٌ عَنِ اَلْحَلَبِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: "أَيُّمَا رَجُلٍ عَدَا عَلَى رَجُلٍ لِيَضْرِبَهُ فَدَفَعَهُ عَنْ نَفْسِهِ فَجَرَحَهُ أَوْ قَتَلَهُ فَلاَ شَيْءَ عَلَيْهِ".
Hammad narrated from Al-Halabi from Abu Abdullah عليه السلام, who said: "If any man attacks another man to strike him, and the latter defends himself and injures or kills the attacker, then there is nothing upon him (no liability)."
