Intentional murder is not expiated by kaffarah

Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, I understood from the lesson that there is no kaffarah (expiation) for intentional murder.

Answer:
Yes, that is correct. There is no kaffarah for intentional murder. Intentional murder is not expiated except by repentance, and kaffarah does not remove it. Intentional murder is severe, and I seek refuge in Allah. For this reason, He said: [Whoever kills a believer intentionally, his recompense is Hell, to dwell therein. The anger of Allah is upon him, and His curse is upon him, and He has prepared for him a great punishment.] So do not enter it. Intentional murder has no kaffarah, even if one were to enslave [a person]. There is no kaffarah for intentional murder; kaffarah does not expiate it. But repentance, if one repents to Allah, then Allah accepts his repentance, and the right of the murdered person remains upon him until the Day of Resurrection. Yes.
