Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This is a question from a woman, and it is long. She says: Since a year ago, my husband has left behind a residence, and he has a pension. I am the one who collects all the income from the rents and the pension, and I provide for all my children. Among my children are five sons and daughters, three of whom are employed, and the eldest is married and has debts. He says he was expelled from living with me. Is it permissible for me to dispose of all this money as I wish, or do I have to set aside the share of the minor? May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
In this matter, you must go to the court. You must consult the Shari'ah court regarding this issue. They will handle this matter by appointing you as the guardian if the court sees that you are capable of acting as guardian for the orphan, or they will appoint another guardian. The important thing is that this is within the jurisdiction of the court; it is necessary to consult them. They are the ones who look into the property of the orphans and appoint someone to manage their interests and preserve their wealth. Yes.
