The ruling on one whose companion died from a dose of narcotics he gave him

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: I was sitting with my companion and we were using narcotics by injection. When he gave him a dose by injection, he died. Is there a sin on me for this?

Answer:
This falls under the category of killing by mistake. If you did not intend to kill him, then you owe the expiation. The expiation for a mistake applies if he died as a result of your actions, provided it was purely accidental and you were the cause. Yes.
