The punishment for the one who incites the killing of his heir

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. If a person orders another person to kill his heir in order to obtain the inheritance, the question is: Does the one who gave the order get the inheritance? And is retaliation obligatory upon him if it happens?

Answer:
In this case, the one who directly carried it out is the one from whom retaliation is taken. As for the one who gave the order, he does not inherit; he is prevented from the inheritance, meaning he is the cause of the killing of his heir, if this is established against him.
