One who dies with an expiation owed

Question:
My cousin (son of my father’s brother) and my cousin (son of my mother’s sister) traveled, and an accident occurred. My cousin (son of my mother’s sister) died in the accident, and the fault lay with my cousin (son of my father’s brother). He was required to fast for two months. Then a fire broke out in the house, and he died two months later. Does he owe anything? First, should anyone fast on his behalf?

Answer:
Answer: According to the traffic report, if the traffic authorities determined that he was at fault, even by one percent, and he was held liable for the accident, then the expiation is upon him: fasting for two consecutive months. He is also liable for the blood money if it is demanded. However, if he died without fasting and someone wishes to clear his conscience, they should fast on his behalf, and may Allah reward them with good. Otherwise, the fasting remains a debt on his conscience, and he will be held accountable for it on the Day of Resurrection.
