فِي اِمْرَأَةٍ شَرِبَتْ دَوَاءً وَ هِيَ حَامِلٌ لِتَطْرَحَ وَلَدَهَا فَأَلْقَتْ وَلَدَهَا قَالَ "إِنْ كَانَ لَهُ عَظْمٌ قَدْ نَبَتَ عَلَيْهِ اَللَّحْمُ وَ شُقَّ لَهُ اَلسَّمْعُ وَ اَلْبَصَرُ فَإِنَّ عَلَيْهَا دِيَةً تُسَلِّمُهَا إِلَى أَبِيهِ" قَالَ "وَ إِنْ كَانَ عَلَقَةً أَوْ مُضْغَةً فَإِنَّ عَلَيْهَا أَرْبَعِينَ دِينَاراً أَوْ غُرَّةً تُسَلِّمُهَا إِلَى أَبِيهِ" قُلْتُ فَهِيَ لاَ تَرِثُ مِنْ وَلَدِهَا مِنْ دِيَتِهِ قَالَ "لاَ لِأَنَّهَا قَتَلَتْهُ".
Hadith.5321 - In the narration by Al-Hasan ibn Mahbub from Ali ibn Riʾab from Abu Ubaydah from Abu Abdullah 
regarding a woman who drank medicine while she was pregnant to abort her child and then miscarried.
Imam said: "If the fetus had developed bones covered with flesh and its hearing and sight had been formed, then she must pay the full blood money (diyyah) and hand it over to the child's father."
Imam further said: "If it was still in the stage of a clot (Alaqah) or a piece of flesh (muḍghah), then she must pay forty dinars or provide a ghurra (compensation), handing it over to the father."
I asked: "Does she inherit anything from her child's blood money?"
Imam replied: "No, because she killed the child."
