Compared to TFA, it seems sensible.

In particular:

> Before an execution, nonetheless, he will go to the victim’s family to obtain forgiveness for the criminal. “I always have that hope, until the very last minute, and I pray to God to give the criminal a new lease of life. I always keep that hope alive.”

That's a very different perspective. If the victim's family forgives the criminal, I gather that they go free.

But on the other hand, losing a hand for stealing is horrible.

I believe forgiveness in this context refers to the Islamic concept of Diya (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diya_(Islam))

As I understand it, it's not always about money.
