حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْمُنْذِرِ أَسَدٌ بْنُ عُمَرَو، أُرَاهُ عَنِ حَجَّاجٍ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شُعَيْبٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ، قَالَ:، قَتَلَ رَجُلٌ ابْنَهُ عَمْدًا، فَرُفِعَ إِلَى عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ، فَجَعَلَ عَلَيْهِ مِائَةً مِنَ الْإِبِلِ: ثَلاثِينَ حِقَّةً، وَثَلاثِينَ جَذَعَةً، وَأَرْبَعِينَ ثَنِيَّةً، وَقَالَ: لَا يَرِثُ الْقَاتِلُ، وَلَوْلا أَنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: " لَا يُقْتَلُ وَالِدٌ بِوَلَدِهِ " لَقَتَلْتُكَ (٢) .،

It was narrated from ‘Amr bin Shu`aib from his father that his grandfather said:
A man killed his (own) son deliberately and the case was referred to `Umar bin al Khattab (رضي الله عنه), who ruled that the murderer should pay one hundred camels (as diyah): thirty three-year-old she-camels, thirty four-year-old she-camels and forty five-year-old she camels. He said: And the killer does not inherit anything. Were it not that I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say, `No father is to be killed in retaliation for his son,” I would have executed you.
