It is not permissible to give charity from the deceased's wealth without the heirs' permission

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The fifth question of the fatwa number ( 4990 )
Q5: Is it permissible to give charity from the deceased's wealth to the poor before it is divided among the heirs and without their permission?
A5: It is not permissible; because it is a disposition of another person's wealth without his permission. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
