وَ رَوَى اَلْحَسَنُ بْنُ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ سَالِمٍ عَنْ عَمَّارٍ اَلسَّابَاطِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عُبَيْدَةَ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنْ أَعْمَى فَقَأَ عَيْنَ صَحِيحٍ مُتَعَمِّداً فَقَالَ "يَا أَبَا عُبَيْدَةَ إِنَّ عَمْدَ اَلْأَعْمَى مِثْلُ اَلْخَطَإِ هَذَا فِيهِ اَلدِّيَةُ مِنْ مَالِهِ فَإِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ مَالٌ فَإِنَّ دِيَةَ ذَلِكَ عَلَى اَلْإِمَامِ وَ لاَ يُبْطَلُ حَقُّ مُسْلِمٍ ".
Al-Hasan ibn Mahbub narrated from Hisham ibn Salim from Ammar Al-Sabaṭi from Abu Ubaydah, who said: I asked Abu Jafar Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir (a.s) about a blind man who intentionally gouged out the eye of a sighted person. Imam (a.s) said: "O' Abu Ubaydah, the intentional act of a blind man is treated like a mistake (khaṭaʾ). The blood money (diyyah) must be paid from his wealth. If he has no wealth, then the diyyah is upon the Imam. The right of a Muslim must not be invalidated."
