Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. If a son kills one of his parents, is retaliation carried out against the son, or is it said that it is not carried out because he inherits a portion of the retaliation? He says: If a son kills one of his parents, is retaliation carried out against him, or is it said that it is not carried out because he inherited a portion of the retaliation?

Answer:
May Allah guide you. Does the killer inherit? The killer has no inheritance; he has no inheritance. Yes.
