the article was about during Amirul Mu'minin Umar Al - Khattab's caliphate. there was a boy who had a traveling with his camel to Madinah.
Along his journey, he had to rest and sleep, while his camel goes grazing, unfortunately, in another fellas land.
That fella turns out to be an old man who wasn't that happy. The old
man throw a stone to the camel, causing it to be injured and die.
As the boy wakes up, seeing his camel in that condition, he became
too angry and upset, throwing the stone back to the old man. The old man
bleeds and died due to it.
The boy was uncomfortable with his action and waited at the spot
until 2 men appeared, the 2 men turns out to be the sons of the old man.
They too weren't happy and thus, brought the boy to see the Caliph,
which was Umar Al-Khattab.
During the proceeding, Umar(ra) asked the boy whether he did or did
not kill the old man. The boy confessed, however, he was sorry as it
wasn't his intention, but was out of rage. However, the boy still had
to be punished by Qisas, blood with blood.
