The questioner:
The questioner says: One of them passed away, and his estate was a farm with a group of livestock and sums of money,

The Shaykh:
blind in.

The questioner:
One of them passed away.

The Shaykh:
One of whom?

The questioner:
I mean a person.

The Shaykh:
Or one of his children? The first question, and no other?

The questioner:
This is a second question, O Shaykh. Second?

The Shaykh:
Yes.

The questioner:
He says: One of them passed away, and his estate was a farm with a group of livestock and sums of money. Is the agent entitled to spend on the farm and what is derived from the deceased’s money until the estate is distributed?

The Shaykh:
If the spending on it preserves it from spoilage, he spends on it. If it preserves it and its value, he spends on it. But if it does not preserve it, then no, he does not spend on it.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
