The father kills his son while intoxicated

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if a father kills his son, and the father was intoxicated at the time of the killing, what is the ruling in that?

The Shaykh:
What?

The questioner:
If a father kills his son and the state of the killing was one of intoxication?

The Shaykh:
Intoxication means drinking khamr (intoxicants); only the hadd (fixed punishment) for intoxication is applied to him, and there is no qisas (retaliation in kind) for his son against him.
