Agreed upon.
'A'ishah (RAA) narrated that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said:

'Ali said, 'No. By Him Who made the grain split (germinate) and created the soul, we have nothing besides the Qur'an except the gift of understanding the Qur'an, which Allah gives a man, besides what is written in this manuscript. I said, 'What is in this manuscript?' 'Ali said, 'The regulations of Diyah (Blood money), the ransom for captives and the ruling that no Muslim should be killed in Qisas for killing a disbeliever.' Related by Al-Bukhari.
The previous tradition was also transmitted by Ahmad, An-Nasa'i and Abu Dawud on the authority of 'Ali with a different chain of narrators where he said, 'The blood of one Muslim (his life) is equivalent to the blood of another Muslim (i.e. equal in Qisas and blood money), the protection of Allah is one (and is equally) extended to the most humble of the believers (i.e. if a Muslim gives protection to a man or to a group of men, they should all help him even is he was the most humble of them). Believers are all like one hand against their enemies. No believer is to be killed for a disbeliever (i.e. in Qisas), nor should one who has a covenant with the Muslims be killed while his covenant holds.' Al-Hakim graded it as Sahih.
Anas bin Malik (RAA) narrated that A girl was found with her head crushed between two stones. They asked her, 'Who did that to you? Is it so and so, or so and so?

So he came to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and said, 'Retaliate on my behalf.'' The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said to him, "Wait until your wound has healed." The man came again and said, 'O Messenger of Allah! Retaliate on my behalf.' So, he allowed him to retaliate against the one who attacked him (by stabbing him the same way). Then he came again to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and said, 'O Messenger of Allah! I have become lame.' The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said to him, "I forbade you (to take retaliation until your wound was healed) but you disobeyed me, may Allah keep you away from His mercy (for your disobedience), and as for your lameness you are not entitled to any compensation (as he retaliated before he discovered the lameness otherwise he would have been entitled half the Diyah)." Then Allah]s Messenger prohibited the following, 'No retaliation is to be made for a wound before the victim is totally recovered.' Related by Ahmad and Ad-Daraqutni.
Abu Hurairah (RAA) narrated "Two woman of the tribe of Hudhail fought with each other and one of them threw a stone at the other. In this way she killed the woman and what was in her womb (as she was pregnant). Their dispute was presented to the Prophet (ﷺ) who ordained that the Diyah (blood money) of the unborn child, is a male or a female slave of the best quality. He also decided that the Diyah of the woman is to be paid by her relatives (the one who killed) on her father's side. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) also ordained that her inheritance (of the woman who killed as she died later) be for her sons and husband (and not for her relatives who had to pay the Diyah). Hamal bin An-Nabighah Al-Hudhaili then said, 'O Messenger of Allah! Why should I pay the Diyah for one who neither drank nor ate nor spoke, nor cried (i.e. the dead fetus), such a creature is not entitled to blood money.' The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) then said, "This man is one of the brothers of the soothsayers," on account of the rhymed speech which he used, concerning the dead fetus.
Abu Dawud and An-Nasa'i narrated on the authority of Ibn 'Abbas that 'Umar (RAA) asked about the judgment of the Prophet (ﷺ) concerning the Diyah of the dead fetus. Hamal bin An-Nabighah Al-Hudhaili then got up and said, "I was between the two women. One of them struck the other with a stone, killing her and what was in her womb. So the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) ordained...." (as above). Ibn Hibban and al-Hakim graded it as Sahih.
Anas narrated that Ar-Rubai' bint An-Nadr (his aunt) broke the incisor teeth of a girl. The family of Ar·Rubai' asked the family of the girl to pardon her, but they refused. They then offered them Arsh, (as compensation) but they also refused. They came to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) asking for Qisas, and he gave orders that they should take their Qisas from Ar-Rubai'. Anas bin An-Nadr then came to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and said, 'O Messenger ofAllah! Will the incisor tooth of Ar-Rubai' be broken? No, by Him Who sent you with the truth, her incisor tooth will not be broken. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) then said to him, "Anas! Allah's decree is equal retaliation." But the family of the girl agreed to pardon Ar-Rubai'. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) then said, "Among Allah's servants are those who if they swear by Allah (for something), Allah will consent to their oath." Agreed upon, and the wording is from Al·Bukhari.
Ibn 'Abbas (RAA) narrated that The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:
"If anyone is killed and his killer is not known, or was killed with a stone, a whip or with a stick (i.e. killed by mistake but with a deliberate injury) his Diyah will be that of killing by mistake (manslaughter). As for whoever killed deliberately, retaliation is due (from the one who killed him). Anyone who tries to prevent taking Qisas (from the killer) may Allah curse him." Related by Abu Dawud, An-Nasa'i and Ibn Majah with a strong chain of narrators.
Ibn 'Umar (RAA) narrated that The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:

The Diyah for a life is a hundred camels. Full blood money (i.e. total Diyah of 100 camels) is paid for the total cut off of each of the following:
the nose, the eyes, the tongue, the lips, the penis, the testicles and the backbone. For the cutting off of one leg; half a Diyah is paid (i.e. 50 camels).

Related by Abu Dawud in his book "al-Marasil", an-Nasa'i, Ibn Khuzaimah, Ibn al-Garud, Ibn Hibban and Ahmad, but they disagreed regarding its authenticity.
