Al-KāfīIbn Abd al-Barr

Chapter: Organs for which a full diyah is payable and those for which less than that is due.

  1. Loss of hearing: the full diyah is payable when hearing from both ears is lost, whether the ears themselves are severed or not. If the loss affects only one ear, half a diyah is due.

    • There is disagreement in what is transmitted from Mālik concerning the ishrāq of the two ears. One report from him states that a diyah is due for them; another says that only a discretionary award (ḥukūmah) is payable. Ibn al-Qāsim maintained that a single diyah suffices for them, whereas others held that, by analogy with Mālik’s position, two diyahs would be required.

  2. Loss of intellect: a full diyah is payable.

  3. The nose: if it is completely removed, the diyah is due. For the mārin (the soft cartilage of the nose) the diyah is likewise due, whereas for the arnabah (the nasal tip) only a ḥukūmah is payable.

  4. The tongue: a full diyah is due.

  5. The teeth: for each tooth the compensation is five camels, or fifty dinars, or six hundred dirhams. Molars and other teeth are the same, and the front of the mouth is treated like the back.

  6. The back: when it is fractured so as to break its function, the full diyah is payable.

  7. The chest: if it is crushed and does not return to its former state, the full diyah is payable.

  8. Loss of voice: the diyah is due.

  9. The penis: a full diyah is payable whether it is severed before or after the testicles.

    • If only the glans (ḥashafah) is cut off, the diyah is due; should the remainder be severed later, a ḥukūmah is payable for what is left.

    • If the penis and the testicles are removed with a single blow, two diyahs are payable.

  10. The testicles: a full diyah is due whether they are removed before the penis or after. ʿAbd al-Malik held that if they are cut after the penis, only a ḥukūmah is due for them. Likewise, in his view, only a ḥukūmah is payable for the penis if the testicles were severed first.

  11. For every pair of teeth… (text continues).

باب ما فيه من الاعضاء الدية كاملة وما لا يبلغها منها في ذهاب السمع الدية كاملة إذا ذهب من كلتا الاذنين اصطلمتا أو لم تصطلما وفي ذهابه من احدى الاذنين نصف الدية واختلف عن مالك في اشراق الاذنين وروي عنه فيما الدية وروي عنه انه ليس فيهما الا حكومة وقال ابن القاسم ليس فيهما الا دية واحدة وقال غيره قياس قول مالك ان تكون فيهما ديتان وفي ذهاب العقل الدية وفي الانف إذ استؤصل الدية وفي المارن الدية وفي الارنبة حكومة وفي اللسان الدية وفي الأسنان خمس من الابل في كل سن أو خمسون دينارا أو ستمائة درهم والأضراس كلها في ذلك سواء وقدم الفم ومؤخره سواء وفي الظهر يقصم بالكسر الدية كاملة وفي الصدر إذا هزم فلم يرجع الى ما كان عليه الدية كاملة وفي ذهاب الصوت الدية وفي الذكر الدية قطع قبل الانثيين أو بعد وفي قطع الحشفة الدية ثم ان قطع بعد ذلك باقية ففيه حكومة وان قطع الذكر والانثيان بضربة واحدة ففيهما ديتان وفي الانثيين الدية قطعتا قبل الذكر أو بعده وقال عبد الملك إن قطعتا بعد ففيهما حكومة وكذلك عنده الذكر حكومة ان قطعت الانثيان قبله وفي كل زوج من الاسنان
