The ruling on making a bequest to non-relatives over the deceased's children

Question : Yes. Yes, we have received it. The executor? Can the executor be someone other than the deceased's relatives?

Answer : Yes, indeed, because a father, for example, may find in a man who is not one of his relatives more competence and trustworthiness than in his relatives, and he is responsible for it. I do not think anyone would appoint an executor over his children except someone he sees as more beneficial and better.
