The ruling on the occurrence of divorce and the wife’s inheritance in a fatal illness

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Bashir informed us of the Messenger of Allah’s ruling: Does the divorce take effect in this case if the wife requests a divorce from her husband while he is suffering from a fatal illness?

Answer:
If she requests the divorce, he divorces her, and the divorce takes effect in all cases. But does she inherit or not? If it is at her request, the divorce takes effect and she does not inherit. If it is not at her request, the divorce takes effect and she inherits. He is dealt with according to the opposite of his intention. The divorce takes effect in all cases, but if it is at her request, it does not take effect and she has no inheritance, because he is not suspected of intending to deprive her. However, if it is not at her request, the divorce takes effect, but it does not prevent her from inheriting, because he is suspected of intending to deprive her.
