Retaliation in kind when the injury is the cause of the victim's death

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if the injury was the cause of the victim's death.

The Shaykh:
Yes, yes.

The questioner:
If the injury was the cause of the victim's death, is the perpetrator killed in retaliation?

The Shaykh:
If the act was accidental. Whatever results from an accident is accidental, that is specific to it, but if it was intentional, yes. Yes. Yes.
