Hadith.5180 - Samaah asked Abu Abdullah (as) about a man who is found murdered in a village or between two villages. Imam (as) said: "The distance between them should be measured, and whichever of the two is closer to him will be held responsible."
5180 - وَ سَأَلَ سَمَاعَةُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ : عَنْ رَجُلٍ يُوجَدُ قَتِيلاً فِي قَرْيَةٍ أَوْ بَيْنَ قَرْيَتَيْنِ قَالَ "يُقَاسُ بَيْنَهُمَا فَأَيَّتُهُمَا كَانَتْ إِلَيْهِ أَقْرَبَ ضُمِّنَتْ".
