The Blood Money of a Pregnant Woman

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If a perpetrator kills a pregnant woman, and the woman and the fetus die together, is the killer required to pay the blood money for both, or is the blood money for the mother sufficient?

Answer:
Answer: It is not sufficient, because they are two souls, the mother and the fetus. He is liable for the blood money of the mother and the blood money of the fetus. The blood money for the fetus is a slave or a female slave, which is five camels. The mother is fifty camels, and the fetus is five camels, making a total of fifty-five camels.
