Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى، قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُوسَى، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ صَالِحٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، - وَقَالَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، - عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شُعَيْبٍ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي، عَنْ جَدِّي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَامَ يَوْمَ فَتْحِ مَكَّةَ فَقَالَ ‏ "‏ الْمَرْأَةُ تَرِثُ مِنْ دِيَةِ زَوْجِهَا وَمَالِهِ وَهُوَ يَرِثُ مِنْ دِيَتِهَا وَمَالِهَا مَا لَمْ يَقْتُلْ أَحَدُهُمَا صَاحِبَهُ فَإِذَا قَتَلَ أَحَدُهُمَا صَاحِبَهُ عَمْدًا لَمْ يَرِثْ مِنْ دِيَتِهِ وَمَالِهِ شَيْئًا وَإِنْ قَتَلَ أَحَدُهُمَا صَاحِبَهُ خَطَأً وَرِثَ مِنْ مَالِهِ وَلَمْ يَرِثْ مِنْ دِيَتِهِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏

ʿAlī ibn Muḥammad and Muḥammad ibn Yaḥyā said: ʿUbayd Allāh ibn Mūsā narrated to us, from al-Ḥasan ibn Ṣāliḥ, from Muḥammad ibn Saʿīd—and Muḥammad ibn Yaḥyā said, “from ʿUmar ibn Saʿīd”—from ʿAmr ibn Shuʿayb, who narrated to me, from my grandfather ʿAbd Allāh ibn ʿAmr, that the Messenger of God, peace and blessings be upon him, stood on the day Mecca was conquered and said: “A wife inherits from the blood money and property of her husband, and he inherits from her blood money and property, as long as neither kills the other. If either of them deliberately kills the other, the killer inherits nothing from the blood money or property belonging to the victim. If either of them kills the other by mistake, the killer inherits from the victim property but not from the blood money.”
