Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
We were a group in a gathering, and one of us said something that insulted the entire group who were present in the gathering. However, we punished that person by making him slaughter a sacrificial animal for us, and he actually agreed to this request. Now we ask your eminence: is this sacrificial animal lawful or forbidden? Please issue a ruling for us. Know that the entire group is present here now, here, and they are waiting for the answer.
Answer:
This matter is sensitive. If the intention is to please them and appease them for what he did to wrong them, then there is no harm. But to compel him to do it, they must not compel him; they should take him to the court. To compel him, they must not compel him. But if he permits it, if he permits it and pleases them by slaughtering for them, or by returning something else to them, and until they forgive him, then there is no harm. But to compel him to slaughter, or else they will beat him, or else they will do something to him, no, the court is necessary, so that what was done to him is addressed, and so that he is disciplined. But he wronged them, so he is disciplined, even by beating, even by imprisonment.
