The questioner says: If a mother neglects her child while he is in the countryside for years, and he dies from the severity of the neglect, what is required of her?
Answer:
If the child’s death was due to the mother’s neglect and negligence, then she is sinful for this, and she owes an expiation, which is freeing a slave. If she cannot find one, then she must fast two consecutive months. Yes.
