Chapter on Retaliation (Qisas) and the Amount of Blood Money (Diyyah)

Ibn Mahbub narrated from Ali ibn Ri'ab from Abdullah ibn Sinan from Abu Abdullah عليه السلام regarding a man who pushed another man onto someone else, causing that person's death. Imam عليه السلام said: "The blood money (diyyah) is upon the one who fell onto the man and killed him, and it must be paid to the heirs of the murdered person." Imam عليه السلام further said: "Then the one who was pushed may seek the diyyah from the one who pushed him." Imam عليه السلام also said: "And if the one who was pushed suffers any harm, the responsibility falls upon the one who pushed him as well."
