Expiation for Accidental Killing
A man wanted to take his son and his nephew in the car, but he did not stop the car completely, and it fell into a deep valley, resulting in the death of the two children. What is the expiation? And if he has to fast, is intermittent fasting permissible?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: He must offer the expiation for the accidental killing for each one of them, which is sixty consecutive days, and God knows best.
