Muwatta Malik #1711
Blood-Money
Yahya related to me from Malik from Muhammad ibn Abd ar-Rahman
ibn Sad ibn Zurara that he had heard that Hafsa, the wife of the
Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, killed one of her
slave-girls who had used sorcery against her. She was a mudabbara.
Hafsa gave the order, and she was killed.
Malik said, "The
sorcerer is the one who uses sorcery for himself and no one else uses
that for him. It is like the one about whom Allah, the Blessed, the
Exalted, said in His Book, 'They know the one who devotes himself to
it will have no share in the Next World.' (Sura 2 ayat 102) I think
that that person is killed if he does that himself."
