The Ruling on Preventing a Woman from Inheritance
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
In another question, the message says: Regarding some tribes or some customs, a woman is not given an inheritance. What is the ruling on that?
Answer:
This is invalid. The fact that a woman is not given an inheritance is invalid. Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He, has given her an inheritance in the clear text of His Book[An-Nisa 4:7]. No one has the right to prevent that. This was in the pre-Islamic age of ignorance (jahiliyyah); they prevented women and children from inheritance and said that inheritance belongs to whoever rides horses, guards the property, and so on. These are matters of the pre-Islamic age of ignorance. Allah, Mighty and Majestic, has given inheritance to women, to the young, and to relatives, each according to what Allah, the Exalted, has given. It is not permissible to deprive anyone of their inheritance. Yes.
