31. Kill not your children for fear of want: We shall provide sustenance for them as well
as for you. Verily the killing of them is a great sin.

33. Nor take life - which Allah has made sacred - except for just cause. And if anyone is
slain wrongfully, we have given his heir authority (to demand qisas or to forgive): but let
him nor exceed bounds in the matter of taking life; for he is helped (by the Law).
