Narrated Mujjaah ibn Mirarah al-Yamani: Mujjaah went to the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم asking him for the blood-money of his brother whom Banu Sadus from Banu Dhuhl had killed. The Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم said: Had I appointed blood-money for a polytheist, I should have appointed it for your brother. But I shall give you compensation for him. So the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم wrote (a document) for him that he should be given a hundred camels which were to be acquired from the fifth taken from the polytheists of Banu Dhuhl. So he took a part of them, for Banu Dhuhl embraced Islam. He then asked Abu Bakr for them later on, and brought to him the document of the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم. So Abu Bakr wrote for him that he should be given one thousand two hundred sa's from the sadaqah of al-Yamamah; four thousand (sa's) of wheat, four thousand (sa's) of barley, and four thousand (sa's) of dates. The text of the document written by the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم for Mujjaah was as follows: In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. This document is from Muhammad, the Prophet, to Mujjaah ibn Mirarah of Banu Sulma. I have given him one hundred camels from the first fifth acquired from the polytheist of Banu Dhuhl as a compensation for his brother.
