Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: A woman died eight months after her marriage. Do her belongings, such as gold and clothes, belong to her husband, or to her family, or to her so that charity is given on her behalf? What is the best course of action?

Answer:
If she dies, all her possessions are an estate. All her possessions, whether jewelry, utensils, or anything else, including clothes that have a monetary value, are an estate for the heirs to divide according to the Book of Allah (Mighty and Majestic). As for her, her ownership ended with her death.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
