Cutting a few hairs from the beard and the compensation for it

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if a person cuts one or two hairs from his beard, or more, is there a compensation (diyah) for these hairs?

The Shaykh:
If it affects his beard, then there is compensation. But if no effect is apparent, there is no blood money for this, but he is subject to a discretionary punishment for his transgression.

The questioner:
Is there a fixed compensation for each hair?

The Shaykh:
No, we do not know what the fixed amount for a hair is. Yes.
