a woman struck her co-wife with a tent pole and killed her, and she (the slain woman) was pregnant. She was brought to the Prophet, and the Messenger of Allah ruled that the 'Asabah of the killer should pay the Diyah , and a slavae (should be paid) for the fetus. Her 'Asabah said: "Should Diyah be paid for one who neither ate nor drank, or shouted or cried (at the moment of birth)? Such a one should be overlooked." The prophet said: "Rhyming verse like the verse of the Bedouins."  

أَنَّ امْرَأَةً ضَرَبَتْ ضَرَّتَهَا بِعَمُودِ فُسْطَاطٍ فَقَتَلَتْهَا وَهِيَ حُبْلَى فَأُتِيَ فِيهَا النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَقَضَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَلَى عَصَبَةِ الْقَاتِلَةِ بِالدِّيَةِ وَفِي الْجَنِينِ غُرَّةً فَقَالَ عَصَبَتُهَا أَدِي مَنْ لاَ طَعِمَ وَلاَ شَرِبَ وَلاَ صَاحَ فَاسْتَهَلّ فَمِثْلُ هَذَا يُطَلّ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَسَجْعٌ كَسَجْعِ الأَعْرَابِ  

there were two co-wives, one of whom struck the other with a tent people and killed her. The Messenger of Allah ruled that the Diyah was to be paid by the 'Asabah of the killer, and that a slave should be given (as diyah) for the child in her womb. The Bedouin Said: "Are you penalizing me for one who neither ate nor drank, or shouted or cried (at the moment of birth)? Such a one should be overlooked/" He said: "Rhyming verse like the verse of the Jahiliyyah," and he ruled that a slave should e given (as Diyah) for the child in her womb.  

أَنَّ ضَرَّتَيْنِ ضَرَبَتْ إِحْدَاهُمَا الأُخْرَى بِعَمُودِ فُسْطَاطٍ فَقَتَلَتْهَا فَقَضَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِالدِّيَةِ عَلَى عَصَبَةِ الْقَاتِلَةِ وَقَضَى لِمَا فِي بَطْنِهَا بِغُرَّةٍ فَقَالَ الأَعْرَابِيُّ تُغَرِّمُنِي مَنْ لاَ أَكَلْ وَلاَ شَرِبَ وَلاَ صَاحَ فَاسْتَهَلّ فَمِثْلُ ذَلِكَ يُطَلّ فَقَالَ سَجْعٌ كَسَجْعِ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ وَقَضَى لِمَا فِي بَطْنِهَا بِغُرَّةٍ

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. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 4568)   

أَنَّ امْرَأَتَيْنِ كَانَتَا تَحْتَ رَجُلٍ فَغَارَتَا فَضَرَبَتْهَا بِعَمُودِ فُسْطَاطٍ فَقَتَلَتْهَا فَاخْتَصَمُوا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ أَحَدُهُمَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ كَيْفَ نَدِي مَنْ لَا أَكَلَ وَلَا شَرِبَ وَلَا صَاحَ فَاسْتَهَلَّ؟ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَسَجْعٌ كَسَجْعِ الْأَعْرَابِ؟ قَالَ فَقَضَى فِيهِ غُرَّةً قَالَ وَجَعَلَهُ عَلَى عَاقِلَةِالْمَرْأَةِ  

[Machine] A blow struck and injured her with a stick of wood, killing her. As a consequence, her killer's blood money was paid by the tribe of the victim. Inside her belly was a fetus. The Bedouin man said, "Will I be penalized for killing someone who neither ate nor drank nor screamed?" He then launched into his argument. The Prophet, ﷺ , responded, "Is a gazelle-like creature like a gazelle?" Abu Hudhayfah added more to his statement. The matter inside the belly was settled with a blood money payment.  

ضَرَبَتْ ضَرَّةٌ ضَرَّتَهَا بِعَمُودِ فُسْطَاطٍ فَقَتَلَتْهَا فَقُضِي بِدِيَتِهَا عَلَى عَصَبَةِ الْقَاتِلَةِ وَبِمَا فِي بَطْنِهَا غُرَّةً فَقَالَ الْأَعْرَابِيُّ أَتُغَرِّمُنِي مَنْ لَا طَعِمَ وَلَا شَرِبَ وَلَا صَاحَ فَاسْتَهَلَّ فَمِثْلُ ذَلِكَ يُطَلُّ؟ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «أَسَجْعٌ كَسَجْعِ الْأَعْرَابِ؟» زَادَ أَبُو حُذَيْفَةَ فِي حَدِيثِهِ وَقُضِي فِيمَا فِي بَطْنِهَا بِغُرَّةٍ

A woman killed her fellow-wife with a tent-pole. Her case was brought to Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and he gave judgment that blood-wit should be paid by the relatives (of the offender) on the father's side. And as she was pregnant, he decided regarding her unborn child that a male or a female slave of good quality be given. Some of her offender's) relatives said: Should we make compensation for one who never ate, nor drank, nor made any noise, who was like a nonentity? Thereupon Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: He was talking rhymed phrases like the rhymed phrases of desert Arabs. (Using translation from Muslim 1682b)
