Never should a believer kill a believer; but (If it so happens) by mistake, (Compensation is due): If one (so) kills a believer, it is ordained that he should free a believing slave, and pay compensation to the deceased's family, unless they remit it freely. If the deceased belonged to a people at war with you, and he was a believer, the freeing of a believing slave (Is enough). If he belonged to a people with whom ye have treaty of Mutual alliance, compensation should be paid to his family, and a believing slave be freed. For those who find this beyond their means, (is prescribed) a fast for two months running: by way of repentance to Allah: for Allah hath all knowledge and all wisdom.

And if any has not (the wherewithal), he should fast for two months consecutively before they touch each other. But if any is unable to do so, he should feed sixty indigent ones, this, that ye may show your faith in Allah and His Messenger. Those are limits (set by) Allah. For those who reject (Him), there is a grievous Penalty.

信士不致于杀害信士，除非是误杀。谁误杀一个信士，谁当释放一个信道的奴隶，并以血锾交付尸亲，除非他们自愿让与。被杀的信士，如果他的宗族是你们的敌人，那末，凶手应当释放一个信道的奴隶。 如果被杀者的宗族是你们的盟友，那末，凶手应当以血锾交付尸亲，并释放一个信道的奴隶。谁不能释放奴隶，谁当边续斋戒两月，这是因为真主准许他悔过自新。真主是全知的，是至睿的。

没有奴隶者，在交接之前，应该连续斋戒两月。不能斋戒者，应该供给六十个贫民一日的口粮。这因为要你们表示信仰真主和使者。这些是真主的法度。不信的人们，将受痛苦的刑罚。
