Car Ramming: Intentional and Semi-Intentional

The Shaykh:
Malik (may Allah have mercy on him) rejects the category of quasi-intentional killing. He says that the Qur'an contains only intentional and accidental killing, and he classifies quasi-intentional killing as intentional. This is the position of the Imam who holds that it is intentional, whereas the majority do not; they say that killing is divided into three categories. Yes.

The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, does running someone over with a car fall under intentional killing or quasi-intentional killing?

The Shaykh:
If he intended it, it is intentional, because this is killing with a heavy object. You have taken the position that if he strikes him with a heavy object or throws a wall on him, it is considered intentional. But the important thing is that he intended this. As for if he did not intend to kill and did not intend to target the person, this is considered quasi-intentional. Yes.
