The answer

There is no blame upon you for what happened to the sparrow, because it was the doer by itself. And even if you had been the one who compelled it to go, you would not have been intentional, due to the Prophet’s (peace and blessings be upon him) saying: “Indeed, Allah has overlooked for my Ummah (nation) their mistakes, their forgetfulness, and what they are compelled to do.”
