The right of remitting Qisas


A: If the reality is as the questioner mentioned, the cousins (Part No. 21; Page No. 208) do not inherit the killed woman named S. S. Kh. As there exists her son who alone has the right to forgive the killer. As for the killed man named M. S. Kh., his heirs are his male cousins only unless there are other relatives who have more right to him. Moreover, they alone have the right to pardon the killer. As for the female cousin named H. S. Kh., she has no right in the inheritance of the killed man and she therefore has no right to pardon the killer.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his Family, and Companions.
