Accidentally Hitting Someone With The Side Of A Car While Running For Your Life
There is separate sharia in Quran for unintentional murder and injury . Unintentional refers to the fact that the person had no intention of mudering or inflicting injury on the person, but because of some mistake on his part, the unfortunate incident happened. If such a muder or injury happens becasue of some mistake then following will be required from the individual: 1 ) Payment of Diyat to the heirs of the victim in case of Murder or to the victim himself in case of Injury, unless heirs or the victim forgives it. 2 ) Fasting for consecutive two months . But if it is established that there was no mistake on the part of the person or the mistake happened on the part of the other party (i.e. the victim ), then there is no blame on the person. Had the matter been brought to the court then court would have decided this matter for the individual. Since the matter was not, so now it is incumbent upon the individual to analyse his situation honestly and decide whether there was any mistake on his part or not, and if not, then there is no blame on him. But if there was any mistake involved, then the above sharia would apply to the person.
