And do not kill anyone which Allah has forbidden. except for a just cause. And whoever is killed (intentionally with hostility and oppression and not by mistake). We have given his heir the authority [(to demand Qisas. Law of Equality in punishment or to forgive. or to take Diya (blood money)]. But let him not exceed limits in the matter of taking life (i.e he should not kill except the killer only). Verily. he is helped (by the Islamic law). |
