The questioner : May Allah reward you. This questioner says: It happened to me four years ago, an accident where I ran over a man and he died, and traffic decided that the fault was shared between me and him, and I paid the full blood money to his family, so is it obligatory for me to fast two consecutive months?
The Shaykh : And you paid what? You paid what?
The questioner : The blood money.
The Shaykh : The blood money. You say it, and I returned it to you and said that it was with leniency.
The questioner : And I paid the full blood money to his family, so is it obligatory for me to fast two consecutive months?
The Shaykh : If a person kills another by mistake, it is obligatory upon him first to free a slave, and if he does not find one, then to fast two consecutive months. This is mentioned in the words of Allah in His saying, the Exalted:[An-Nisa 4:92] to His saying [An-Nisa 4:92]. Based on this, if the fault is shared between you and this killed person, then it is obligatory for you to perform the expiation, and it is obligatory for the killed person as well to perform an expiation. It is not said that you both share in the expiation together, so that one of you fasts a month and the other fasts another month, because the expiation is not divided. Yes.

The questioner : He says: "The book, review it..."
The Shaykh : I reviewed the book, but I am not the one who authored it. I reviewed it only for errors. As for the opinion, it is the opinion of its author. That is, my review of the books, for example, does not mean that I approve of everything in them, but it means that if I find an error, I correct it only. But if there is another opinion that some scholars held, for example, I do not address it.

The Shaykh : The blood money. You say it, and I returned it to you and said that it was with leniency.

And whoever kills a believer by mistake - then the freeing of a believing slave
ومن قتل مؤمنا خطأ فتحرير رقبة مؤمنةAnd whoever does not find [one or cannot afford to buy one] - then [instead], a fast for two months consecutively, [seeking] acceptance of repentance from Allah. And Allah is ever Knowing and Wise.
