Q&A Thread (January 2022)
Question 08 : (Part-a) : Can a muslim kill someone who is 100% responsible for murder and anarchy in this world, like someone who is gangster or target killer, someone who has openly killed someone but is too powerful for law or anyone? (Part-b) : Traditional Islamic jurisprudence takes the position that the Qisas punishment in case of a murder is not applicable if the victim was liable to be killed according to their fiqh (not معصوم الدم ) e.g. if the victim was an apostate, a married adulterer, committed blasphemy or a murderer etc. Should such a person be given any relaxation in Qisas as traditional fiqh dictates? And Will there be any difference in relaxation in case that victim was a proven convict in the court of law? Original Thread : Discussion 58851 Discussion 59824
Amended the question, made it into a two-parts question.
