The ruling on the bridal gift (mahr) that was not paid to the deceased wife

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: A man’s wife passed away and her mahr was not paid. What is the ruling? And to whom should he give this mahr if he wants to pay it?

Answer:
It is obligatory for him to pay her mahr, even if she has passed away, and he should pay it to her heirs; because it is part of her estate.
