The Explanation of the Woman's Responsibility and Her Bearing of Blood Money

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
And is the matter, does the 'aqilah guarantee it, and is the killer held liable?

The Shaykh:
About what?

The questioner:
Are the father and son part of the family? And does the family bear the liability for the killer in the case of unintentional killing or quasi-intentional killing?

The Shaykh:
Yes, the 'aqilah are the male agnatic relatives of the perpetrator, the male agnatic relatives of the perpetrator from his fathers, his sons, his grandsons, his uncles, and his brothers. The 'aqilah are the agnatic relatives of the perpetrator, and each of them bears a share that the judge assigns according to his ability. This is up to the judge; he assigns them shares according to their ability and distributes it among them.
