Is a person liable for death or loss of sanity resulting from terrifying another person with a drawn sword?

Primary text

Liability for death or loss of sanity resulting from terrifying another person with a drawn sword, or pushing them from a height where death or insanity ensues purely from the terror, is established. The perpetrator owes the *diyyah* (blood money). This liability is borne by the *aqilah* (kinsmen responsible for blood money). If this action was intentional, it is considered quasi-intentional homicide (*shibh 'amd*); otherwise, it is considered accidental error (*khaṭa'*). The rationale is that the perpetrator created the cause for the destruction, thus they are held responsible, analogous to the case of a child.
