Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Abu Mu'adh from Dammam asks. He says: My mother passed away with me in a car accident between Riyadh and Dammam. Is anything required of me in this situation?
Answer:
This depends on the causes of the accident. If the accident resulted from the driver's negligence, then he owes the expiation and he also owes the blood money if you demand it from him. The expiation is fasting two consecutive months, and he owes the blood money for accidental killing if you demand it from him. However, if the accident did not result from negligence or causation, but was merely divine decree and destiny, then he owes nothing. Yes.
