Hadith.5267 - Abu Jafar Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir (as) was asked about a slave who injured two men.
Imam (as) said: "He is to be divided between them if his crime equals his full value."
It was asked: "What if he injured one man in the morning and another in the evening?"
Imam (as) replied: "He is to be divided between them as long as the governor has not ruled regarding the first injured person. But if the governor had already ruled and handed the slave over to the first injured party due to his injury, and then the slave committed another injury afterward, then his liability for that second injury falls upon the latter victim."
5267 - وَ رَوَى اِبْنُ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ رِئَابٍ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ : فِي عَبْدٍ جَرَحَ رَجُلَيْنِ قَالَ
"هُوَ بَيْنَهُمَا إِنْ كَانَتْ جِنَايَتُهُ تُحِيطُ بِقِيمَتِهِ" قِيلَ لَهُ فَإِنْ جَرَحَ رَجُلاً فِي أَوَّلِ اَلنَّهَارِ وَ جَرَحَ آخَرَ فِي آخِرِ اَلنَّهَارِ قَالَ "هُوَ بَيْنَهُمَا مَا لَمْ يَحْكُمِ اَلْوَالِي فِي اَلْمَجْرُوحِ اَلْأَوَّلِ فَإِنْ كَانَ اَلْوَالِي قَدْ حَكَمَ فِي اَلْمَجْرُوحِ اَلْأَوَّلِ فَدَفَعَهُ إِلَيْهِ بِجِنَايَتِهِ فَجَنَى بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ جِنَايَةً فَإِنَّ جِنَايَتَهُ عَلَى اَلْأَخِيرِ".
