Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, killing is among the obstacles to inheritance. So, is one who kills by mistake an heir?

Answer:
No, he is not an heir, even if it was by mistake, in order to block the door. Killing that entails a blood money or an expiation prevents inheritance, even if it was by mistake. Yes.
