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

وَ رَوَى دَاوُدُ بْنُ سِرْحَانَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: فِي رَجُلَيْنِ قَتَلاَ رَجُلاً قَالَ "إِنْ شَاءَ أَوْلِيَاءُ اَلْمَقْتُولِ أَنْ يُؤَدُّوا دِيَةً وَ يَقْتُلُوهُمَا جَمِيعاً قَتَلُوهُمَا".
Dawud ibn Sirhan narrated from Abu Abdullah عليه السلام regarding two men who killed another man. Imam عليه السلام said: "If the heirs of the murdered person wish to pay the blood money (diyyah) and execute both of them, they may kill them both."
