Handing the perpetrator over to the awliya (close friends of Allah) of the murdered person so that they may kill him
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Now, the perpetrator is not handed over to the awliya of the victim so that they may kill him. He asks: Why is this not done?
Answer:
Well, you do not know. He is handed over, and the wali of the victim is present. If he wishes to carry out the killing himself, he kills him; otherwise, he delegates the killing to the police, and he is present. If he says, "I have pardoned him," the police do not kill him.
