Peeter Navaro, a trade advisor of US President Donald Trump, has once again launched a scathing attack on India. He alleged that India is promoting war by purchasing oil from Russia. He wrote in his latest tweet that India is buying oil from Russia on a large scale, which he called ‘Blood Money’. Navaro says that India had not bought oil from Russia before Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, but is now purchasing in large quantities. He said, “This is blood money and people are dying.”

X did fact check, told Navaro post ‘Hypocritical’
Social media platform X had labeled a post of Navaro by checking the fact and labeling ‘hypocritical’. The fact check note of X said that India’s buying oil from Russia is a legal and sovereign decision. It cannot be considered a violation of international law. This step was linked to India’s energy security. Navaro reacted strongly about this fact check and called it a “waste note” (CR*P Note). He also accused the platform of running “propaganda”.

America accused of double standard
It was also reported in an X note that the US imports goods from billions of dollars every year from Russia, which includes fertilizer and uranium. Commenting on this, the users called Navaro’s allegations as double standard. Despite this, Navaro reiterated that India is buying oil from Russia only for profits and this is the way to fund the war machine. He also criticized the policies of the Indian government and said that India does not accept the truth.

Nimisha Priya, a resident of Kerala, has been found guilty of killing her business partner Talal Abdo Mahdi. The Yemen court sentenced him to death in this case in the year 2018. Nimisha was to be hanged today i.e. on July 16, but at the moment it has been postponed. His sentence was approved by Yemen’s President Rashad al-Alii in January this year. The Government of India is making every effort to save them. The Center has told the Supreme Court that blood money is the only way to save Nimisha Priya, who is serving a death sentence in Yemen. Such payment is allowed under the Sharia law prevalent in many Islamic countries. Let’s know how it works.

How blood money works in Sharia law

The spirit of revenge in Sharia law is based on a Sharia law named Qisas. Which means death sentence in return for death. In the case of murder, this means that the victim’s family can demand death as a punishment for the culprit. Blood money is also called in the Islamic Sharia law. For example, in murder or any other serious crime, the accused gives financial compensation to the victim’s family. According to the Sharia law, the murder takes place in two ways, one is intentional murder and the other is accidentally murdered. According to Sharia law, in the case of intentional murder, it is applied according to what is the punishment or how the crime has been punished.

If the murder is done by mistake, then according to the verse (4:92), the punishment is ransom i.e. blood money. But if the person who has died, his heirs forgive the punishment of their own will, then they are allowed to do so. In such a case, it is the duty of the killer to follow the fixed amount and pay it properly. According to scholars, the idea behind it is to promote forgiveness and the victim’s family has to give compensatory justice.

When did blood money work before

Earlier, the case of death on a criminal was removed, but after payment of Diya, he has been kept in jail. One such example is also a case of Abdul Rahim of Kerala. He was found guilty in Saudi Arabia due to the death of his employer’s son. Rahim was apologized by the victim’s family after paying a huge amount. However, even after this, his case was not closed and he was sentenced to 20 years in jail. Although he had been in jail in this case earlier too, his time was taken into consideration. The crime was committed in 2006 and was forgiven in 2018. Even after this, he was released next year.

Nimisha priya execution: Nurse Nimisha Priya, a nurse from Kerala, who was to be hanged in Yemen on July 16, has been postponed. It has been possible that the world knows the initiative of a 94 -year -old Elder Dharmaguru from India, which the world knows as ‘Grand Mufti of India’. The credit for this big relief goes to Kanthapuram AP Abubakar Muslims, who is the leading Sunni Muslim leader of India. He opened the path of conversation to the family of the deceased Talal Abdo Mahdi through Yemen’s head Sufi religious leader Sheikh Habib Umar bin Hafiz.

Made of ‘religious dialogue’
Kanthapuram Muslimariyar took the initiative to negotiate on religious grounds, which suggested the path of apology through blood money as per the tradition of Yemen. Nimisha Priya’s family offered Rs 8.6 crore so that she could be forgiven.

Where and how the conversation took place?
This important meeting was held in the city of Dhamar in Yemen, where the family of the deceased indicated to reconsider the hanging. After this, the judicial system of Yemen decided not to hang on July 16. The family of Talal Abdo Mahdi is also associated with Habib Omar’s Sufi series. For this reason, the talk of Kantapuram Muslimyar received religious respect, which gave the entire dialogue a positive direction.

What are the allegations against Nimisha?
Nurse Nimisha Priya of Palakkad district in Kerala was to be hanged on July 16 for the murder of her Yemeni business partner Mahdi. He was sentenced to death in 2020 and his final appeal was rejected in 2023. He is currently lodged in a jail in Sana, the capital of Yemen.

What did the central government say?
The Center had informed the Supreme Court on Monday that the Government of India is making every effort, but nothing can be done in view of the situation in Yemen. Attorney General R. Venkataramani had told the bench of Justice Vikram Nath and Justice Sandeep Mehta that the government wants to save its citizens and is making every effort in this matter. Venkataramani said, “The Government of India is doing its best and has also approached some sheikhs, who are very influential people there.”
