The questioner:
I have one question. Please. Please. A man passed away and he had a retirement pension, and the pension was restricted to his wife and his unmarried daughters. But one of the daughters is married. And she still has a family card with her son. And she received a share of the pension. The question is: is it lawful for the married woman to keep it, or should she return it? To her mother and her unmarried sisters.
The Shaykh:
My brother, the pension has a regulation. The pension has a regulation. And one must follow the regulation. So the one who is not covered by the regulation is not permitted to take anything from the pension. Because he is taking something that is not his right. So she must return it. She must return it to those who are entitled to it from her mother and her sisters. Yes.
