Question:
He asks about intentional killing, its expiation, and whether receiving retribution in this world is considered an expiation for the punishment in the Hereafter? May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
Intentional killing is forbidden, and it carries a great sin. Allah the Exalted said: "It is not for a believer to kill a believer except by mistake," up to His saying:[An-Nisa 4:93] He said: [Al-Furqan 25:68] [Al-Furqan 25:69-70].
Intentional killing, which is aggressive, killing a believer intentionally and aggressively, is undoubtedly a great crime and a major sin, and there is a severe warning for it.
But if it is taken in this world, the right of the awliya (close friends of Allah) is dropped from him. Because intentional killing requires three things. Yes. A right for Allah the Exalted, a right for the awliya of the murdered, and a right for the murdered.
The right of Allah the Exalted is dropped by repentance, or by Allah the Exalted overlooking you? And the right of the awliya is dropped by retribution if they take it, and the right of the murdered remains, and he will be held accountable for it in the Hereafter, and he will be reckoned for it in the Hereafter, and the first thing to be judged is as in the hadith:Sunan Ibn Majah 2615Sahih (Darussalam) Mishkat al-Masabih 5589, but if the killer repents with a sincere repentance, then Allah the Exalted forgives him, and He compensates the murdered with whatever He wills from His bounty, so He forgives the killer according to the correct opinion of the scholars, because sincere repentance drops the sin of intentional aggressive killing; sincere repentance, because sincere repentance wipes out what came before it of disbelief and shirk (associating partners with Allah), killing the soul without right, and other things; with sincere repentance, no sin remains.
He asks about intentional killing, its expiation, and whether receiving retribution in this world is considered an expiation for the punishment in the Hereafter? May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
Intentional killing is forbidden, and it carries a great sin. Allah the Exalted said: "It is not for a believer to kill a believer except by mistake," up to His saying:
But whoever kills a believer intentionally - his recompense is Hell, wherein he will abide eternally, and Allah has become angry with him and has cursed him and has prepared for him a great punishment.
وَمَن يَقْتُلْ مُؤْمِنًا مُّتَعَمِّدًا فَجَزَاؤُهُ جَهَنَّمُ خَالِدًا فِيهَا وَغَضِبَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَلَعَنَهُ وَأَعَدَّ لَهُ عَذَابًا عَظِيمًاAnd those who do not invoke with Allah another deity or kill the soul which Allah has forbidden [to be killed], except by right, and do not commit unlawful sexual intercourse. And whoever should do that will meet a penalty.
وَالَّذِينَ لَا يَدْعُونَ مَعَ اللَّهِ إِلَٰهًا آخَرَ وَلَا يَقْتُلُونَ النَّفْسَ الَّتِي حَرَّمَ اللَّهُ إِلَّا بِالْحَقِّ وَلَا يَزْنُونَ وَمَن يَفْعَلْ ذَٰلِكَ يَلْقَ أَثَامًا(69) Multiplied for him is the punishment on the Day of Resurrection, and he will abide therein humiliated - (70) Except for those who repent, believe and do righteous work. For them Allah will replace their evil deeds with good. And ever is Allah Forgiving and Merciful.
يُضَاعَفْ لَهُ الْعَذَابُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَيَخْلُدْ فِيهِ مُهَانًا إِلَّا مَن تَابَIntentional killing, which is aggressive, killing a believer intentionally and aggressively, is undoubtedly a great crime and a major sin, and there is a severe warning for it.
But if it is taken in this world, the right of the awliya (close friends of Allah) is dropped from him. Because intentional killing requires three things. Yes. A right for Allah the Exalted, a right for the awliya of the murdered, and a right for the murdered.
The right of Allah the Exalted is dropped by repentance, or by Allah the Exalted overlooking you? And the right of the awliya is dropped by retribution if they take it, and the right of the murdered remains, and he will be held accountable for it in the Hereafter, and he will be reckoned for it in the Hereafter, and the first thing to be judged is as in the hadith:
The first matter concerning which judgment will be passed among the people on the Day of Resurrection will be bloodshed.
أول ما يقضى بين الناس يوم القيامة الدماء،Retaliation will be taken from some for others
فيقتص لبعضهم من بعض
