its value for its master, as previously mentioned regarding someone who cuts off the hand of a slave, then he is manumitted and dies.

Section: If one strikes the abdomen of his slave girl, then manumits her, and she subsequently miscarries a dead fetus, he is not liable for it, according to the analogy of the view of Abu Bakr; because his offense was not guaranteed in its inception, so he is not liable for its complications, just as if he had become an apostate and then embraced Islam, and subsequently died. Furthermore, the death of the fetus might have occurred due to the blow [delivered] while it was his property, and nothing occurred after the manumission that would necessitate a guarantee. According to the view of Ibn Hamid, he owes a ghurrah, from which he inherits nothing, because the consideration for the offense is the time of its stabilization. If the slave girl belonged to two partners, and they struck her, then manumitted her together, and she delivered a dead fetus, then according to the view of Abu Bakr, each of them owes a half-tenth of the value of her mother to his partner; because each of them committed an offense against the fetus, and half of it was his, so the guarantee for it falls away from him, and he is obligated to guarantee the half that belonged to his partner by a half-tenth of the value of its mother, in consideration of the state of the offense. According to the view of Ibn Hamid, each of them owes half the ghurrah, from which the mother gets a third, the rest goes to the heirs, and the killer inherits nothing from it.

Section: If the son of a freedwoman, whose father is a slave, strikes the abdomen of a woman, then his father is manumitted, and she miscarries a fetus and dies, it is possible that their blood money is from the perpetrator's property, according to what was mentioned previously. It is also possible that the blood money is upon the masters of the mother and her agnates, according to the analogy of the view of Abu Bakr, in consideration of the state of the offense. According to the analogy of the view of Ibn Hamid, it is upon the masters of the father and his relatives, in consideration of the state of the miscarriage. If a dhimmi (protected non-Muslim) strikes the abdomen of his dhimmi wife, then embraces Islam, and she miscarries, his 'aqilah (agnatic relatives) do not bear the liability. If she dies along with it, it is the same; because his 'aqilah, being Muslims, do not bear the liability for him; because he was a dhimmi at the time of the offense, and the people of the dhimma do not bear the liability for him; because he is a Muslim at the time of the miscarriage. It is possible that the blood money, according to the analogy of the view of Abu Bakr, is upon his 'aqilah from among the people of the dhimma, in consideration of the state of the offense, and that regarding the fetus there is
