Question:
Shaykh Salih, among the questions that came in, this questioner says: My grandmother wants to write in her bequest that she will allocate money to one of her daughters. Is that permissible for her, or does the one who inherits have no share in the bequest?
Answer:
It is authentic in the hadith that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Sunan Abi Dawud 2870Hasan Sahih (Al-Albani) The heir has no bequest, and his inheritance is sufficient for him. As for giving to her in this world while she is still alive, there is nothing wrong with that. Yes.

May Allah reward you.
