A Moment With The Quran | Surah Al-Baqarah, Verse 178 (II)
But if the offender is pardoned by the victim’s guardian, then blood-money should be decided fairly and payment should be made courteously. This is a concession and a mercy from your Lord. But whoever transgresses after that will suffer a painful punishment.
Surah Al-Baqarah ( 2 : 178 )
