Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: If a father helped or lent his son a sum of money and did not demand it back during his lifetime, is the son required to inform the heirs about this money when the father dies? And does it become part of the estate?
Answer:
This is part of the estate. The money is brought in and added to the estate, and it is distributed among the heirs, because it is the deceased’s money.
