The Heirs' Withdrawal from Pardon
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
May Allah reward you. If some of the heirs renounce retaliation and then they withdraw from that.
The Shaykh:
If you see people, some of them have their heads cut off, when he prostrates it.
The questioner:
If some of the awliya (close friends of Allah) pardon and some do not pardon.
The Shaykh:
If some of the awliya pardon, the claim is dropped, because their right is collective. So if some of them pardon, it is dropped, and the blood money becomes obligatory.
The questioner:
Even if you withdraw. Even if it is just one person.
The Shaykh:
Even if they are ten and one withdraws, or a hundred and one withdraws, and one pardons, it is transferred.
The questioner:
All of them take from the blood money, and the one who renounces means he takes nothing.
The Shaykh:
If he renounced for something else, there is no doubt.
The questioner:
The chickens are ruined.
The Shaykh:
Yes, the rest take from the blood money.
The questioner:
They take imaginary amounts, millions.
The Shaykh:
It is all cheap compared to the life of the murdered person. His father goes around the whole world and does not kill. Who blames him? Or who blames his family, if the world had no affection.
