Question:
Another says that he took gold from his brother's wife without his knowledge and sold it for two thousand riyals. Does he return the one thousand riyals, or does he return the gold? He wanted to return it?
Answer:
It is excepted... and if they forgive him, it is on the condition that he returns the gold. If they pardon him and overlook it, or if they are satisfied with the value, that is sufficient. However, if they are not satisfied, he must return what he took. If that is required and he is unable to do so, he gives them the value. Yes.
