Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, we received this question from a woman who says that her husband died and left behind a young daughter. Is this woman permitted to manage the daughter's wealth by preserving, caring for, and looking after it?

Answer:
This is a matter for the court to review. They should appoint a guardian for the daughter, whether from her mother or someone else who is qualified to be her guardian and to preserve her wealth. Yes.
