The ruling on distributing wealth among heirs during one's lifetime
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Some wealthy people distribute their wealth among their family, i.e., their heirs, while they are still alive, giving each person his share, with the male receiving the share of two females. Is this permissible, or is it called a gift or a donation?
Answer:
No, there is no objection to it. If he generalizes the gift among his children, there is no harm. He has generalized it among his children and followed the division prescribed by Allah, where the male receives the share of two females, so there is no objection to this. Yes.
