I asked Imam (as): "May I be your ransom, what is the blood money (diyyah) for a child born out of fornication?" Imam (as) replied: "The one who spent on him is to be given what he spent on him." I asked: "If the child dies and has wealth, who inherits it?" He (as) said: "The Imam." It has also been narrated: "The blood money (diyyah) for a child born out of fornication is eight hundred dirhams, and his inheritance is like the inheritance of the child of mula'anah (mutual cursing between spouses in the case of adultery accusations)."
