What is the blood-money for premeditated murder?
Answer
In the name of Allah, it is a full blood-money. It is one of five things: one hundred camels, two hundred cows, or one thousand gold dinars (gold dinar equals three quarters of an ounce of gold), or one thousand sheep, or ten thousand dirhams (each dirham equals 6.12 ounces of silver). It is possible to agree with the guardian of the murdered person, and you will give what you both agree on as a way of reconciliation. Allah knows best.
