Q: Please answer my following questions:1- Is it Wajib (obligatory)
on a person's tribe to pay the Diyah (blood money) of involuntary manslaughter if they can afford it?
It may be worth mentioning that people of the concerned tribe are more than two hundred in number.2-
Is it permissible for a person's tribe not to pay the Diyah though they are able to do so and to ask other tribes to pay it?
Many of our tribes are used to paying nothing for Diyah and they collect the money and sometimes its double value from other tribes.It is noteworthy that the foregoing practice spreads badly amongst most of the Bedouin tribes of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
A:
Firstly:
If the reality is exactly as what is mentioned in the question that the tribe of the person who committed the involuntary manslaughter is able to pay the concerned Diyah, it will be Wajib (obligatory) on them to pay it.
Secondly:
If the reality is exactly as what is mentioned in the question that the tribe of the person who committed the involuntary manslaughter is able (Part No. 21; Page No. 248) to pay the concerned Diyah, it is impermissible for them to beg for its value from other tribes.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
