The ruling on one who accidentally runs over his sister

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
My son is thirteen years old. I gave him something to work with, and he accidentally ran over his sister, who is one and a half years old. What is the ruling? May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
He owes an expiation, and the blood money is on the residuary male heirs, unless you and her mother forgive the blood money. He must also offer an expiation of a believing slave, and if he returns to it, he fasts for two consecutive months, sixty days. This is called accidental killing. Yes.
