الشرح المختصر
"Qatl al-‘amd" (homicide) is killing that contain an action of killing, like slaughtering or hitting, is coupled with the intention of killing. For intentional killing to entail reciprocal punishment, three conditions must be met: 1. To intend to perform a harmful act. 2. To intend to perform this harmful act against a living, inviolable human being. By inviolable, the jurists mean someone whose blood is protected by virtue of being a Muslim or by a guarantee of protection or a covenant. 3. This harmful act must be performed with a tool that is typically fatal, such as a sword, a large stone, and the like. Some examples of this: when someone attacks another with a sharp weapon like a sword or knife, throws him from a high place like a mountain, strangles him, and so on.
