do not take life which god has made inviolate except by right. if anyone is killed wrongfully we have given authority to his heirs to demand retribution but let them not transgress the prescribed limits in exacting retribution for then he will be assisted .
ولا تقتلوا النفس التي حرم الله إلا بالحق ومن قتل مظلوما فقد جعلنا لوليه سلطانا فلا يسرف في القتل إنه كان منصورا
