9. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Aban ibn Taghlib from Zurarah who has said the following
“I once asked abu Ja‘far (a.s.), about a man who kills a man in the sacred area. He (the Imam) said, ‘He owes one full and a half blood money, wergild. He fasts for two consecutive months of the sacred months, sets free a slave and feeds sixty destitute people.’ I then said, ‘What happens if something comes in between?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘Give an example.’ I said, ‘The two ‘Id and the days of tashriq (11, 12, and 13).’ He (the Imam) said, ‘He is required to fast because it is an established right on him.’”
9ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ أَبَانِ بْنِ تَغْلِبَ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ قَالَ
قُلْتُ لأَبِي جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) رَجُلٌ قَتَلَ رَجُلاً فِي الْحَرَمِ قَالَ عَلَيْهِ دِيَةٌ وَثُلُثٌ وَيَصُومُ شَهْرَيْنِ مُتَتَابِعَيْنِ مِنْ أَشْهُرِ الْحُرُمِ وَيُعْتِقُ رَقَبَةً وَيُطْعِمُ سِتِّينَ مِسْكِيناً قَالَ قُلْتُ يَدْخُلُ فِي هَذَا شَيْ‏ءٌ قَالَ وَمَا يَدْخُلُ قُلْتُ الْعِيدَانِ وَأَيَّامُ التَّشْرِيقِ قَالَ يَصُومُهُ فَإِنَّهُ حَقٌّ لَزِمَهُ.
