Jurisprudential and Legal study of Filicide by Taking a Look at Quranic Teachings
The main and first sentence of murder is retribution. One of the exceptions of this general principle is the murder of a child by father. This idea entered criminal law after the Islamic Revolution. From the point of view of most Islamic jurists, the sentence of a man who kills his son is reduced by a degree of discount from retaliation- which is the total sentence in murder emphasized in the Holy Qur'an- to the payment of blood money and ta'zir. In Islamic jurisprudence, several reasons have been mentioned for this sentence and narrations have been cited that have a great deal of validity in terms of principles. The view of Islamic jurists on this issue is different; Some of the jurists, who include the majority of the Imam's jurists, have agreed with the sentence of the exemption of the father, and have stated the base of their agreement on the two hadiths of the Infallible Imams (AS) and, of course, some rational reasons for the sentence. On the other hand, the opponents, citing the general sentence of retaliation in murder, consider the father and paternal grandfather as an example of the general sentence and sentence him to retaliation.
