Kaffarah of a fasting person committing involuntary killing


561

Q: One night, a group of people got out of prison to commit a robbery in town. They broke down the door of my home, while I was sleeping with my children. (Part No. 21; Page No. 342) They entered my room to steal my belongings. I woke up and took hold of my gun and shot at them to frighten them away. One of them was hit and died. I hope you would guide me concerning the Kaffarah I have to offer. I am extremely frightened as I do not want to commit any act against Islam and Shari`ah (Islamic law).


A: If the case is as you have mentioned, there is nothing due on you, for you are the wronged one; defending yourself and your property.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet, his family and Companions.
