Ruling on a land dispute between heirs
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
My grandfather owned a piece of land and had sons and daughters during his lifetime. Before he passed away, he registered the land in my father's name. After a period following his death, my father improved the land, planted palm trees in it, and the land produced fruit, praise be to Allah. After a long time, my uncles and aunts came and said that they have a share in the land and the palm trees, even though there were no palm trees on the land during my grandfather's life. Do they have a share or not? If they do have a share, how is the land and the palm trees to be divided, considering that they had no contribution to improving the land or the palm trees? We request your guidance. May Allah reward you with the best of good.
Answer:
This is a case of dispute between two parties. Yes. Each party is making a claim, and disputes are referred to the Shari'ah courts, not through this program. Yes.
The presenter:
Here, there is only one perspective, and it lacks the other perspective.
