Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Two years ago, I was involved in an accident in which a woman died, and I think she was Christian. The court ruled that I was speeding above the limit, so I was fined fifty dinars, and fined fifty dinars for the public right. I fasted for two months, which was what was required of me, but I do not know about the blood money. That is, they did not call me, and her family did not come to me, and nothing came to me regarding her.

The Shaykh : But were you negligent?

The questioner : Yes, the court ruled, and the investigator said: speeding above the limit.

The Shaykh : So, look for her family.

The questioner : She is from Ceylon.

The Shaykh : Yes, it does not matter that she is from Ceylon. Look for her. Go back to the employment office and say: Where did this woman come from? And look for her family.

The questioner : Of course, the case was transferred to the car insurance.

The Shaykh : The important thing is that you must look until you deliver the blood money to her family.

The questioner : So, is the blood money obligatory upon me?

The Shaykh : The blood money is obligatory upon you, as long as it is established that it was due to your negligence or transgression, you must guarantee it.

The questioner : The blood money, O Shaykh, is imposed by the court, meaning I cannot determine it myself.

The Shaykh : They will determine it when they find her family. At that time, it will be determined.

The questioner : Yes.

The Shaykh : It will be determined.

The questioner : The fasting of the two months, O Shaykh, that he mentioned.

The Shaykh : Yes, that is correct.

The questioner : And she is a disbeliever.

The Shaykh : A treaty.
and if he was from a people with whom you have a treaty وَإِنْ كَانَ مِنْ قَوْمٍ بَيْنَكُمْ وَبَيْنَهُمْ مِيثَاقٌ
[An-Nisa 4:92]
Complete it.
a compensation payment presented to his family فَدِيَةٌ مُسَلَّمَةٌ إِلَى أَهْلِهِ
[An-Nisa 4:92]
And what?
and the freeing of a slave وَتَحْرِيرُ رَقَبَةٍ
. Wait, you have the right to the guests, yes.
