A sheep dying after hitting it


355

Q 2: I am a blind man. Once I was walking towards the bathroom while there was a sheep lying down in the way that I knew nothing of. I kicked it to move from my way but it did not move and it died that same night due to my kick. What is the Kaffarah (expiation) for that? I am asking you because Allah (Exalted be He) says, So ask the people of the Scripture, if you do not know.


A: There is no Kaffarah obligatory on you but you should perform Tawbah (repentance to Allah) and seek Allah's Forgiveness. Moreover, if the sheep is not yours, you have to pay compensation to its owner unless they waive their right.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
