Question:
A sister of mine passed away and left behind a son of hers. Does the son inherit his mother’s estate? May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
If the heir is other than the son, he takes his mother’s entire estate as a residuary heir. However, if there are other heirs with fixed shares, they take their fixed shares, and the remainder goes to him if he has no siblings or sisters sharing with him. If he has no siblings sharing with him, he takes the entire estate as a residuary heir if there are no other heirs, or he takes the remainder after the fixed shares if there are other heirs with fixed shares. Yes. May Allah reward you with good.
