Article 392 of Jaafari Personal Status Law

English translation

a The killing must be intentional; if it is purely accidental, it shall not preclude inheritance. The killing must be wrongful and without right; if he kills him rightfully, as in the case of a person killed in retaliation or in defense of his person, honor or property, his killing shall not constitute an impediment to inheritance.
Arabic original
ا أن يكون القتل عمدا ، أما إذا كان خطأ محضا فلا يمنع من الإرث. أن يكون القتل ظلما بغير حق أما إذا قتله بحق كالمقتول قصاصا أو دفاعا عن نفسه أو عرضه أو ماله فلا يكون قتله مانعا من الإرث.
