Question:
Your Excellency the Shaykh. A questioner says: A man died and he had a pension of four thousand riyals, from which monthly installments are paid. Do the heirs have the right to spend this amount on his brothers and the deceased’s children? Yes. A man says: A man died and he had a pension, and monthly installments are paid from this pension. Do the heirs have the right to spend this amount on his brothers and the deceased’s children, or should they collect this amount until the young ones grow up?
Answer:
This, my brother, is a pension. It follows the pension system. If an employee dies, his pension is processed according to the system that governs it. It is not the property of the heirs; rather, it is according to the system established by the state. Yes.
