Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, are there poetic compositions on inheritance? Which is the largest of them? And what is its connection to the composition of Shaykh Ibn Sa'id (may Allah have mercy on him)?
Answer:
There is no doubt that memorizing a poetic composition helps in understanding inheritance, but memorization alone is not sufficient. It is necessary to have it analyzed by a scholar who explains, clarifies, and expounds it for you. It is required to have it analyzed by one of the scholars. The best of the compositions is al-Rahbiyyah; it is the best of the compositions, and it is the one that has been in people's hands for a long time, with easy verse and clear meaning.
