Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, do the awliya (close friends of Allah) of the murdered person kill the murderer without referring the matter to the authority?
Answer:
This is not permissible. It leads to chaos. It is obligatory, as a requirement of the Shari'ah ruling, that the execution be carried out by the authority. This matter is chaos; everyone kills, saying, "This is qisas (retaliation in kind)." Yes.
