Tying a person and releasing a predatory animal on him

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if a man ties a person up and then releases a predatory animal on him, is the perpetrator required to pay blood money (diyah) or is it retaliation (qisas)?

Answer:
It is qisas. This is a type of intentional killing. Releasing a predatory animal on him is one of the forms of intentional killing. Or if he releases a snake on him and it bites him, this is one of the forms of intentional killing. Yes.
