Settlement in the case of intentional homicide is not called blood money and is not borne by the kin group

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is the blood money that reaches the value of one and a half million, or cars and livestock? This is a settlement; the camels do not amount to a million.

Answer:
This only occurs in cases of intentional homicide, not in cases of cutting [limbs]; this applies to intentional homicide, where they settle for the right of retaliation, involving millions. This is not borne by the kin group, and moreover, this is intentional homicide, which the kin group does not bear. Yes.
