If an individual strikes another with a weapon, such as a stick or stone, which is inherently likely to cause death in the ordinary course of nature, and the victim subsequently dies, what is the legal classification of this offense?
Under the Pakistan Penal Code, Qatl-i-shibah-i-amd occurs when an offender intends to cause harm to the body or mind of the victim using a weapon or means that is not ordinarily likely to cause death, yet death results. The use of a stick or stone in this context typically falls under this category.
1092
Within what maximum timeframe must the payment of 'daman' be completed, whether paid in a lump sum or through installments?
Daman is a form of financial compensation awarded in cases of hurt where arsh is not specified. According to the provisions of the Pakistan Penal Code regarding the enforcement of financial liabilities in criminal cases, the court may allow the offender to pay the daman in installments, provided the total duration for such payments does not exceed five years from the date of the final judgment.
1093
What is the maximum term of imprisonment for causing hurt by means of poison under Section 337-J of the Pakistan Penal Code?
Section 337-J of the Pakistan Penal Code provides that any person who voluntarily causes hurt to another by administering poison or any stupefying, intoxicating, or unwholesome substance shall be punished with imprisonment of either description for a term which may extend to ten years, in addition to other liabilities.
1094
If an offender amputates the right ear of a victim who already had half of that ear missing, what is the nature of the offender's liability, assuming the offender's own ear is intact?
Qisas requires that the injury inflicted by the offender be exactly equivalent to the injury suffered by the victim. Since the victim's ear was already partially missing, the offender cannot be subjected to qisas (retaliation in kind) because the offender's ear is perfect. Consequently, the law mandates that the offender is liable to pay arsh, which is the financial compensation for the injury caused.
1095
According to the Pakistan Penal Code, what is the prescribed punishment for an individual who causes hurt using a corrosive substance?
Section 336B of the Pakistan Penal Code mandates that whoever causes hurt by a corrosive substance shall be punished with imprisonment for life or imprisonment of either description for a term which shall not be less than fourteen years and shall also be liable to a fine of not less than one million rupees. The option provided reflects the statutory requirement for both imprisonment and the specified monetary penalty.
1096
Into how many primary categories is 'Jurh' (hurt) classified?
The classification of 'Jurh' or hurt is fundamentally divided into two main categories under the relevant legal framework. This binary classification helps in distinguishing between different levels of physical harm, which is essential for determining the appropriate legal remedy, whether it involves qisas, arsh, or daman, ensuring justice is administered according to the severity of the act.
1097
What is the prescribed 'arsh' for the 'itlaf' (destruction) of an organ that exists singly in the human body?
Under Islamic jurisprudence as incorporated into the Pakistan Penal Code, the destruction of a single organ (such as the nose or tongue) is considered a major injury. Because there is no second organ to perform the function, the law dictates that the compensation, or arsh, for such an injury is equivalent to the full value of diyat, reflecting the gravity of the permanent loss.
1098
What is the prescribed punishment for qatl-i-khata under Section 319 of the Pakistan Penal Code?
Section 319 of the Pakistan Penal Code defines qatl-i-khata (unintentional homicide) and stipulates that the offender shall be liable to pay diyat. Additionally, the court may impose a sentence of tazir imprisonment, which can extend up to five years, depending on the circumstances of the case.
1099
Under Islamic penal provisions, what is the prescribed amount of Arsh for the removal of one eyebrow?
According to the Pakistan Penal Code provisions regarding Qisas and Diyat, the compensation (Arsh) for causing the loss of an eyebrow is fixed at half of the total Diyat. This is based on the principle that the loss of paired organs or features often carries a specific valuation in Islamic jurisprudence.

What is the legal definition for an act where a person inflicts pain, injury, or disease, or damages a body part, without resulting in the death of the victim?
The Pakistan Penal Code defines 'Hurt' as the act of causing pain, bodily harm, disease, or infirmity to any person, or causing the destruction or permanent impairment of any organ or limb. This definition is crucial for distinguishing non-fatal physical offenses from homicide. By using the term 'Cause hurt', the law provides a standardized framework for prosecuting physical violence that does not result in the victim's death.
