Statement: I inherited this wealth from my fathers
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A questioner asks: Is it permissible to say, "I inherited this wealth from my fathers," when my intention is that it was only through them?
Answer:
If by saying "I inherited it from my fathers" he denies that it is from Allah, then this is invalid. However, if he says "I inherited it from my fathers" by way of reporting the fact, while acknowledging that it is from Allah—his fathers, from where did they get it? From Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh,
