Hadith.5263 - Yahya ibn Abi Al-'Ala narrated from Abu Abdullah (as) who said
"If a slave kills a free man, the family of the murdered person has the choice: if they wish, they may kill him, and if they wish, they may enslave him."
5263 - وَ رَوَى يَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي اَلْعَلاَءِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ
"إِذَا قَتَلَ اَلْعَبْدُ اَلْحُرَّ فَلِأَهْلِ اَلْمَقْتُولِ إِنْ شَاءُوا قَتَلُوا وَ إِنْ شَاءُوا اِسْتَعْبَدُوا".
