The questioner:
Now we come to the second question.
The Shaykh:
Yes.
The questioner:
The questioner says: A woman swore and took an oath by Allah that she would not take anything from her father's inheritance, and this was because her father used to beat her constantly, for reasons and without reason. So she asks: Is there a sin on her for that, and does she take her inheritance after her father's death?
The Shaykh:
Yes, she takes her right and expiates for her oath. The expiation for an oath is feeding the poor and clothing them. She takes her right from the inheritance; the oath requires an expiation for her. Yes.
Another questioner:
There is a story regarding the orphan's money.
The presenter:
May Allah answer you and keep you safe.
The Shaykh:
Regarding the orphan and the insane person, the majority of scholars hold that zakah is due on their wealth whenever the lunar year passes, and their guardian pays the zakah. There is no worldly benefit or anything else.
