The Ruling on the Excess of a Woman’s Blood Money over One-Third
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, if a woman’s blood money is more than one-third of the father’s blood money, is the excess over the one-third what is borne by the man, or is it that if it exceeds one-third, the entire blood money is borne by the one-third?
Answer:
If it is more than one-third of the blood money, the excess over the one-third is borne by the man. As for what is within the one-third, that is the severe wound, the gushing gash, and the gushing laceration. Is there a one-third of the blood money in them? Does it fall upon the woman? There is a one-third of the blood money in them. But if it exceeds the one-third, such as half the blood money, like cutting off the skin or cutting off a limb, where there is half the blood money, the woman’s share is half, and the man bears the rest. Yes.
