Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: Obliging the members of a tribe to pay the blood money for the murdered person. Is it obligatory to participate in this matter?
Answer:
The 'aqilah. This blood money is upon the 'aqilah. The blood money for accidental killing is upon the 'aqilah. The 'asabah (residuary male heirs) of the person, the 'asabah of the perpetrator, bear the blood money for accidental killing. As for the blood money for intentional killing, it is upon the perpetrator himself, and the 'aqilah does not bear it.
