Blood-Wit Paid by Allah's Messenger

SUMMARY: A person from the Ansar belonging to the tribe of Banu Haritha called 'Abdullah b. Sahl b. Zaid set out and was killed by his uncle's son, Muhayyisa b. Mas'ud b. Zaid. Allah's Messenger paid the blood-wit himself and one of the camels kicked Sahl while he was in the enclosure.

Bushair b. Yasar reported that a person from the Ansar belonging to the tribe of Banu Haritha who was called 'Abdullah b. Sahl b. Zaid set out and the son of his uncle called Muhayyisa b. Mas'ud b. Zaid, the rest of the hadith is the same up to the words: " Allah's Messenger paid the blood-wit himself". Bushair b. Yasar reported that Sahl b. Abu Hathma said: One camel amongst the camels paid as blood-wit kicked me while I was in the (camel) enclosure.
وَحَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى، أَخْبَرَنَا هُشَيْمٌ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ بُشَيْرِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، أَنَّ رَجُلاً، مِنَ الأَنْصَارِ مِنْ بَنِي حَارِثَةَ يُقَالُ لَهُ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَهْلِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ انْطَلَقَ هُوَ وَابْنُ عَمٍّ لَهُ يُقَالُ لَهُ مُحَيِّصَةُ بْنُ مَسْعُودِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ ‏.‏ وَسَاقَ الْحَدِيثَ بِنَحْوِ حَدِيثِ اللَّيْثِ إِلَى قَوْلِهِ فَوَدَاهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ مِنْ عِنْدِهِ ‏.‏ قَالَ يَحْيَى فَحَدَّثَنِي بُشَيْرُ بْنُ يَسَارٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي سَهْلُ بْنُ أَبِي حَثْمَةَ قَالَ لَقَدْ رَكَضَتْنِي فَرِيضَةٌ مِنْ تِلْكَ الْفَرَائِضِ بِالْمِرْبَدِ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about a man named Abdullah from a tribe called Banu Haritha who belonged to an Arab group known as Ansars. He went on a journey but unfortunately, he was killed by his uncle’s son, Muhayyisa. The Prophet Muhammad paid for Abdullah’s death with money known as ‘blood-wit’ or ‘diyya’ which is compensation given when someone dies due to another person’s actions. In this case, it was given because Abdullah died due to being killed by his own relative, so it served as justice for him and his family members. Furthermore, one of camels that were part of this compensation kicked Sahl while he was in an enclosure which shows us how important it is for us to be careful when dealing with animals too!
