ያቺንም አላህ ያወገዛትን ነፍስ ያለ ሕግ አትግደሉ ፡ ፡ የተበደለም ኾኖ የተገደለ ሰው ለዘመዱ ( በገዳዩ ላይ ) በእርግጥ ስልጣንን አድርገናል ፡ ፡ በመግደልም ወሰንን አይለፍ ፤ እርሱ የተረዳ ነውና ፡ ፡
Nor take life - which Allah has made sacred - except for just cause . And if anyone is slain wrongfully , we have given his heir authority ( to demand qisas or to forgive ) : but let him not exceed bounds in the matter of taking life ; for he is helped ( by the Law ) .
