The questioner says: Does a person to whom his father bequeathed a sum before his death, so that he would perform the 'Id sacrifice on his behalf every year, have the right to invest this sum and increase it?
The Shaykh:
Does he have the right to?
The questioner:
Invest it.
The Shaykh:
That is, increase it. Yes. Good, this is a good thing if he invests it and increases it, and even if the reward increases, this is a good thing. But he should not invest it in something that endangers it, exposing it to loss or decrease. Yes. Correct and regulated investment is permissible. Yes.
