"If a man kills his mother by mistake, he inherits from her. However, if he kills her intentionally, he does not inherit from her."

I asked Imam (as) about a man who bequeathed a portion of his wealth - a third or a fourth - to another man. Then, the man (the testator) was mistakenly killed. Imam (as) said: "The will is to be executed from his wealth and from his blood money (diyyah)."

“Abu Abu Ja‘far (a.s.), has said, ‘A woman inherits from the wergild of her husband and her husband inherits from the wergild of his wife as long as one of them does not kill the other partner.’”

“Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said that brothers from mother’s side do not receive any share from the wergild.’”

“About the case of inheritance of a newborn from a wergild, abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘He cannot inherit from a wergild anything unless he cries at birth and his crying is heard.’”

“Abu Ja’far (a.s.), has said, ’From the wergild the heirs receive according to their ordained shares except brothers and sisters from the mother’s side who do not inherit anything thereof.’”

“I once heard abu Ja’far (a.s.), saying, ‘People do not behave properly in matters of divorce without the sword. If you govern them, you can return them to the book of Allah, most Majestic, most Glorious.’ He (the narrator) has said that al-Mithamiy from Muhammad ibn abu Hamzah from his narrators narrated guessing that this Hadith is from abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.) .’”

"The Commander of the Faithful (as) said: "A man or a woman shall not be flogged until four witnesses testify explicitly to the act of penetration and withdrawal." Imam (as) also said: "I will not be the first among the four witnesses because I fear that one of them might retract their testimony, and I would then be subjected to flogging."

“This is about the case of a man against whom two men had testified for theft, thus his hand was cut off and thereafter the two witnesses brought another man saying that this was the thief and not the one whose hand was cut off but we were only confused about it. Abu Ja’far (a.s.), has said that ’ Amir al-Mu’minin, Ali, Alayhi al-Salam, issued a judgment. It required the two to pay one-half of the wergild and did not accept their testimony against the other man.’”

he was asked about a married woman who committed adultery and became pregnant. After giving birth, she secretly killed her child. Imam (as) said: 'She is to be lashed one hundred times for committing fornication, another hundred lashes for killing her child, and she is to be stoned because she was married (muhsanah).' I then asked him about an unmarried woman who committed fornication, became pregnant, and then secretly killed her child. Imam (as) said: 'She is to be lashed one hundred times for committing fornication and another hundred lashes for killing her child.'
