Hadith.5254 - Abdullah ibn Al-Mughirah narrated from Mansur, from Aban ibn Taghlib, from Abu Abdullah عليه السلام who said:
"The blood money (diyyah) for a Jew, a Christian, and a Magian is equal to that of a Muslim."
The compiler of this book, may Allah سبحانه وتعالى have mercy on him, commented that these narrations differ according to circumstances. Their differences are not due to inconsistency but rather to varying conditions.
If the Jew, Christian, or Magian adheres to the terms of their covenant, refraining from openly consuming alcohol, committing adultery, engaging in usury, eating carrion and pork, marrying close relatives, publicly eating and drinking during the day in Ramadan, entering Muslim mosques, and if they conduct their activities by leaving at night and entering during the day for trade and fulfilling their needs, then whoever kills one of them must pay four thousand dirhams.
However, opponents have taken the apparent meaning of the narration without considering the specific conditions.
If the Imam grants them protection, includes them under his covenant, and they uphold the agreed-upon conditions - such as paying the jizyah - then if one of them is killed by mistake, the killer must pay the full blood money equal to that of a Muslim. This ruling aligns with the principles of justice and protection established by the covenant.
