[Machine] O Commander of the Faithful, he did not intend to kill him but his action was impulsive in anger. He did not stop until his anger subsided and he regretted what he had done. Then he said to Murrah, "Let me be compensated with twenty and one hundred camels." So he did, and Umar took thirty she-camels, thirty camels, and forty pregnant camels, for the rest of their lives, until the year of Bazel. Then he said to Qatadah, "If it were not for the fact that I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, 'The killer has no right to inherit from whom he killed,' I would have given you his inheritance." Then he called the brother of the slain man and gave him the inheritance, these are the facts and narrations that support and confirm each other, and we have heard them in different forms, connected and transmitted in the Book of Inheritance.
يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ إِنَّهُ لَمْ يُرِدْ قَتْلَهُ وَإِنَّمَا كَانَتْ بَادِرَةً مِنْهُ فِي غَضَبٍ فَلَمْ يَزَلْ بِهِ حَتَّى ذَهَبَ مَا كَانَ فِي نَفْسِهِ عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ مُرْهُ فَلْيَلْقَنِي بِقُدَيْدٍ بِعِشْرِينَ وَمِائَةٍ مِنَ الْإِبِلِ فَفَعَلَ فَأَخَذَ عُمَرُ ؓ مِنْهَا ثَلَاثِينَ حِقَّةً وَثَلَاثِينَ جَذَعَةً وَأَرْبَعِينَ ثَنِيَّةً خَلِفَةً إِلَى بَازِلِ عَامِهَا ثُمَّ قَالَ لِقَتَادَةَ لَوْلَا أَنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ لَيْسَ لِقَاتِلٍ شَيْءٌ لَوَرَّثْتُكَ مِنْهُ ثُمَّ دَعَا أَخَا الْمَقْتُولِ فَأَعْطَاهُ إِيَّاهُ هَذِهِ مَرَاسِيلُ يُؤَكِّدُ بَعْضُهَا بَعْضًا وَقَدْ رُوِّينَاهُ مِنْ أَوْجُهٍ مَوْصُولَةٍ وَمُرْسَلَةٍ فِي كِتَابِ الْفَرَائِضِ
