A Guide to the Responsibility of the 'Aqilah for Blood Money in the Case of Unintentional Killing
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is there a proof from the Book or the Sunnah or scholarly consensus regarding the 'aqilah bearing the blood money in the case of unintentional killing?
Answer:
Yes, there are proofs here. We did not base this on mere preference. There are proofs that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) made the 'aqilah bear the responsibility of its 'aqilah. I advise you to review Bulugh al-Maram or something else, rather than asking this question. Yes.
