Respect agreements/covenants between two parties if they agree on any other form than what was prescribed by Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) .

This hadith discusses the consequences of deliberately killing someone and what should be done in such cases. According to this hadith, if someone kills another person intentionally then they will be handed over to the heirs of the victim who can either choose to kill them or accept a certain amount of money as compensation known as ‘blood money’ or ‘diyat’ in Arabic. The amount mentioned in this hadith is thirty hiqqah which are coins made out of gold; thirty jadha'ah which are coins made out of silver; and forty khalifah which are coins made out of copper. If both parties agree on any other form of settlement then it must also be respected as it becomes a binding covenant between them according to this hadith.
