Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if no heir is found for the deceased, does the neighbor inherit?
Answer:
No, the neighbor does not inherit. If no heir is found, the matter is referred to the court. If there is no heir from the sharers, the residuary heirs, or the distant relatives, the deceased's wealth becomes the property of the Muslim community.
