Q 2:
A person burnt wood that was carried by two camels when he was ignorant (of the ruling ). When the owner of the wood accused him of burning it, he denied doing it. The man asked him to take an oath that he did not burn it and when he took it,
the owner of the woods believed him. Now the person has grown up, repented to Allah, and performed Hajj (pilgrimage). What should he do, especially now when the owner of the wood passed away?
A:
He must seek Allah's Forgiveness for perjuring himself and repent sincerely to Him. He must estimate the value of the wood which he burnt and give it to the heirs of the owner since he is now deceased, unless they forgive him. If he does not know the heirs, he must give it to the poor on behalf of the owner and this will free him of his liability along with repenting to Allah. (Part No. 15; Page No. 375) May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
