Whoso of you killeth it of set purpose he shall pay its forfeit in the equivalent of that which he hath killed , of domestic animals , the judge to be two men among you known for justice , ( the forfeit ) to be brought as an offering to the Ka 'bah ; or , for expiation , he shall feed poor persons , or the equivalent thereof in fasting , that he may taste the evil consequences of his deed . Allah forgiveth whatever ( of this kind ) may have happened in the past , but whoso relapseth , Allah will take retribution from him .
