Blood Money and Expiation for One Who Kills an Aggressor

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, if a person kills a fasting person who is attacking him, is it obligatory for him to do something because of his killing him?

Answer:
No, if he kills the aggressor, he owes nothing, neither blood money nor expiation, because he is permitted to do so.
