No heir may dispose of anything other than his own share of the inheritance

Fatwa number ( 17253 )
Q: I inform your eminence that my mother, Hayya bint Muhammad, passed away leaving behind Muhammad, Turki, and Tufayh, the children of Zayd. Muhammad and Turki have also passed away, while Tufayh is still alive. Hayya has a house that is rented out for a sum of eight thousand riyals (8000). Is this amount to be distributed among the descendants of Muhammad and Turki, or does Tufayh take it and spend it on the rightful heirs? Peace be upon you and Allah’s mercy.
A: What the aforementioned Hayya left behind, after settling the obligatory rights such as debt, bequest, and the like, belongs to her legal heirs, each taking his share by obligation or by residuary right according to the calculation of the inheritance. If one of her heirs dies, the share of each heir from her becomes the property of his heirs. It is not permissible for you to dispose of anything other than
what belongs to you from the house as an inheritance from your mother, the aforementioned Hayya. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
