وَلَا And (do) not تَقْتُلُوا۟ kill ٱلنَّفْسَ the soul ٱلَّتِى which حَرَّمَ Allah has forbidden ٱللَّهُ Allah has forbidden إِلَّا except بِٱلْحَقِّ ۗ by right وَمَن And whoever قُتِلَ (is) killed مَظْلُومًۭا wrongfully فَقَدْ verily جَعَلْنَا We have made لِوَلِيِّهِۦ for his heir سُلْطَـٰنًۭا an authority فَلَا but not يُسْرِف he should exceed فِّى in ٱلْقَتْلِ ۖ the killing إِنَّهُۥ Indeed, he كَانَ is مَنصُورًۭا helped ٣٣

And do not kill the soul [i.e., person] which Allāh has forbidden, except by right. And whoever is killed unjustly - We have given his heir authority, but let him not exceed limits in [the matter of] taking life. Indeed, he has been supported [by the law].
