Imposing the cost of the wife's maintenance on the heir when it is revealed that her husband is dead

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, how does the heir pay the woman's maintenance if it is revealed that her husband is dead, and she had kept herself for him during that period?

Answer:
Yes, she goes to claim maintenance from the husband for whom she kept herself, but the heirs are not the ones for whom she kept herself, so how can she eat from what belongs to them? Yes.
