Narrated Al-Mughirah bin Shubah: A man of Hudhail has two wives. One of them struck her fellow-wife with a tent-pole and killed her and her unborn child. They brought the dispute to the Prophet ﷺ. One of two men said: How can we pay bloodwit for the one who did not make a noise, or ate, nor drank, nor raised his voice ? He (the Prophet) asked: Is it rhymed prose like that of bedouin? He gave judgement that a male or female slave of the best quality should be paid in compensation, and he fixed it to be paid by woman's relatives on her father's side.

The tradition mentioned above has also been transmitted by Mansur through a different chain of narrators and to the same effect. This version adds: The Prophet ﷺ fixed the bloodwit for the slain woman to be paid by the relatives of the woman who had slain her, on the father's side. Abu Dawud said: In a similar way it has been transmitted by al-Hakam from Mujahid from al-Mughirah.

Harun added: He then testified him. Imlas means a man striking the belly of his wife.

The father of the woman who had slain said: He is a liar: I swear by Allah, he did not raise his voice, or drink or eat. No compensation is to be paid for an offence like this.

Hamal bin Malik bin al-Nabighah al-Hudhali said: Messenger of Allah! how should I be fined for one who has not drunk, or eaten or spoken, or raised his voice? - adding that compensation is not to be paid for such (an offense).
