Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah preserve you, is a man killed for a woman?

Answer:
Yes. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) killed a man from the Jews for a woman from the Ansar. And because of the generality of the verse
prescribed for you is legal retribution for those murderedكُتِبَ عَلَيْكُمُ الْقِصَاصُ فِي الْقَتْلَى
[Al-Baqarah 2:178]
. Yes. There is no issue with killing a woman for a man, but it may be an issue to kill a man for a woman, as he is more complete than she is. A man is killed for a woman; a sane, adult, knowledgeable man is killed for a baby child in its cradle, in order to appease the soul and protect it. Yes.
