Payment of Diyah for Injuries

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) ruled that one-third of the Diyah should be paid for a sightless eye, paralyzed hand, or black tooth if it is destroyed, cut off, or knocked out.

It was narrated from 'Amr bin Shu'aib, from his father, from his grandfather, that: the Messenger of Allah ruled that one-third of the Diyah should be paid for a sightless eye that looks fine, if it is destroyed; one-third of the Diyah should be paid for a paralyzed hand if it is cut off; and one-third of the Diyah should be paid for a black tooth if it is knocked out.
أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ، قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا ابْنُ عَائِذٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْهَيْثَمُ بْنُ حُمَيْدٍ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي الْعَلاَءُ، - وَهُوَ ابْنُ الْحَارِثِ - عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شُعَيْبٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَضَى فِي الْعَيْنِ الْعَوْرَاءِ السَّادَّةِ لِمَكَانِهَا إِذَا طُمِسَتْ بِثُلُثِ دِيَتِهَا وَفِي الْيَدِ الشَّلاَّءِ إِذَا قُطِعَتْ بِثُلُثِ دِيَتِهَا وَفِي السِّنِّ السَّوْدَاءِ إِذَا نُزِعَتْ بِثُلُثِ دِيَتِهَا
