Question:
What is the meaning of his saying (peace and blessings be upon him): "There is no bequest for an heir"? This question is from the listener Ahmad Sadiq from Mubar.
Answer:
Its meaning is clear: there is no bequest for the heirs, whether by fixed share or as residuary heirs, but rather it is limited to the share that Allah has given them, and nothing is added to it. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 27:1 So if they permit it, there is no harm in that, after the death. If they permit it after the death, there is no harm in that. Good.
