Kuwait Court of Cassation principle number 3811

The direct actor is liable even if he acted neither intentionally nor wrongfully. His definition in Islamic jurisprudence: a person whose act, which he personally performed, itself brought about the harm and caused it without an intermediary between his act and the resulting harm. The direct actor and the indirect causer. Their meanings. Example. The sudden bursting of a vehicle's tire and its overturning while in motion, resulting in the death of one of its passengers, establishes the driver's status as a direct actor. A judgment departing from this. Error in the application of the law.
