Killing a man for a woman

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is a man killed for a woman?

The Shaykh:
Yes, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) killed a man from the Jews for a woman from the Ansar. And because of the generality of the verse
prescribed for you is legal retribution for those murderedكُتِبَ عَلَيْكُمُ الْقِصَاصُ فِي الْقَتْلَى
[Al-Baqarah 2:178]


The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if a man ties up a person.

The Shaykh:
This is without doubt regarding the killing of a man by a woman, but there may be a question regarding the killing of a woman by a man, as he is more complete than she is. A man is killed for a woman; a sane, adult, knowledgeable man is killed for a child in the cradle, for the sake of protecting souls and preserving them. Yes.
